  McAuliffe, who described himself as a hunter and gun owner, said there is “too much” gun violence in America.
  “There are too many guns in the hands of people who shouldn’t have guns,” he said. “I’m a gun owner, I own guns, but I went through background checks to get (them).”
  McAuliffe called for universal background checks.
  “Everyone who purchases a gun in the Commonwealth of Virginia should have to go through background check,” he told the radio station.
