Chuck Grassley: No-fly lists are imperfect; allow gun sales to those on them

Patty Judge is stopping by in north Iowa to talk about gun control, and her feelings on the Orlando shooting. Judge is running against U.S. Senator Chuck Grassley. She expresses that what happened in Orlando is tragic, and supports taking the availability of purchasing a gun away from someone that is or has been on the terrorist watch list.

"If our government is afraid of someone to fly on an airplane then I don't think they need to have an assault weapon," Judge said. Grassley feels if you're on the list not to fly, you should still be able to purchase a gun. He stresses Senator Kennedy was once on that list and he was a good man. Grassley believes it's an issue of radical terrorism.
