Charlie Crist proposes gun control amid recent shootings in Miami-Dade County
Democratic gubernatorial candidate and former Florida Gov. Charlie Crist said during a campaign stop in Miami Beach on Friday that, were he elected again, he would work to pass gun-control measures in response to deadly shootings such as the recent gun violence in Miami-Dade County.

“One of the most common-sense things that we can do is ban assault weapons,” Crist said. “It is hard for me to imagine why we already don’t do that.”

Crist, currently a St. Petersburg congressman, mentioned other gun control measures during a brief interview, including “better background checks.” To push for reform, Crist said he would speak with members of Congress and find common ground across the political aisle.
