Senator Lamar Alexander is a United States Senator from Tennessee. He began his political life in Richard Nixon's office. He is a Republican. He says insane things.
The most recent insane thing he has said was live on television (on MSNBC to be exact) in relation to gun control and video games. You can see the clip below (around 1m:55s in for the gobsmacker). But what he said is:
"I think video games is a bigger problem than guns." What? Why?
"Because video games affect people. But the First Amendment limits what we can do about video games and the Second Amendment to the constitution limits what we can do about guns."
