"If you want to have a conversation about guns, I'm happy to, but when you say things like that, AR-15s, I am a legal gun owner and gun laws don't have any impact with people who legally go and buy and use guns in a safe way," she added. "As a gun owner and NRA member, we're demonized to such a degree." This set Joy off, but they were interrupted by a commercial break.
