GOP lawmaker says arrows could be used for mass shootings if guns are banned. 

Rep. Warren Davidson (R-Ohio) claims mass shootings will not stop even if guns are banned because arrows can be used.

Davidson made the comments during an appearance on CNN Sunday to talk about the first federal gun safety bill passed in Congress in nearly three decades, and signed into law by President Joe Biden.


Davidson called the bill “unconstitutional” and blamed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for passing the measure with “no amendments.”

“Guns are the number one killer of kids, according to the CDC. Do you admit that a mass shooting could not happen without a gun?” host Pamela Brown asked.

“A shooting, by definition, I suppose you could do it with arrows, but it would be a lot harder to do it with mass,” Davidson replied.

He went on to say that the right to keep and bear arms was in the Constitution and it was a “right explicitly protected, not granted, by the government but protected by the Second Amendment, saying the government shall not infringe on that right.”
