Megyn Kelly Says It’s ‘Pointless’ to Spend Time Debating Gun Reform After Maine Mass Shooting: ‘They’re Not Going Away’ (Video)

Instead, she advocates for “jail-like” mental health facilities “in which civil liberties are going to have to be bent a bit”

Megyn Kelly won’t be moved to change her position on gun reform despite Wednesday’s mass shooting in Lewiston, Maine, saying there’s no reason to even discuss it further.

Kelly, during her SiriusX podcast show on Thursday, said it was “pointless to spend time on the gun debate, they’re not going away.”

Instead, Kelly added that “the mental health problem” should be the focus.

“I really firmly believe what we need is a mental health facility to which a loving parent would send her son,” she said. “We need a facility that is jail-like, it’s a secure facility, but it is one to which a loving family member would feel comfortable committing his or her son or daughter, uncle, cousin, and one in which civil liberties are going to have to be bent a bit.”
