The comments came during a public safety town hall attended by both men. The pair have been locked in a public feud over recent shootings of SAPD officers.
Bexar County District Attorney Joe Gonzales speaks to a crowd of 300 people at a public safety town hall.
Gonzales told the crowd of 300 people gathered at the West Side's St. Rose of Lima Catholic Church that he, like McManus, is frustrated by the recent shootings. However, he explained that he and the chief — who hadn't spoken in more than a month — both believe the only way to tackle the problem"is if we work together."
"What we are seeing is that people are having access to guns who have no business carrying guns," Gonzales said."People who have mental health issues, people that have criminal histories, people who are involved in relationships who have victimized their significant other in domestic violence situations — all those people have access to guns."
Further, Gonzales said he doesn't advocate taking guns from law-abiding citizens as a solution to curbing violent crime.
