Last Friday, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal was in no mood to talk gun control in the wake of the Lafayette theater shooting. “There will be an absolute appropriate time for us to talk about policies and politics,” he said. But it wasn’t then.
He didn’t want to talk about it a month earlier, either, in the aftermath of the Charleston church shootings. “Now’s not the time,” he said, criticizing President Obama for “trying to score cheap political points” for bringing up gun control in a speech.
