I mean willing to remove assault weapons. I honestly don't care how they are removed, the faster the better. Unless you support following strict process over the lives of people, I don't see a problem with that.

He wasn't saying that he had a willingness or desire to remove assault weapons. He was talking about disarming people that he didn't like. Or that law enforcement didn't like.

And I, personally, have a huge problem with eliminating civil rights, even when you have a majority of people voting to do so.

I don't remember him saying that, but sure, whatever.
