Things got heavy among the panelists when they began to opine about gun access and the need for gun control.
Morning show co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin, 33, was quite vocal during the segment, admitting that she believed Americans should be able to exercise their Constitutional right.
However, she also felt that gun control laws should be more restrictive.
“I’m a Republican who fundamentally believes in legal [and] responsible gun ownership…,” Alyssa asserted.
She continued: “The more deadly the weapon, the more difficult it should be [to get a gun], the more screenings, the more background checks, the more trainings you should have to go through to own one.”
The former White House Communications Director then segued into her thoughts on the assault weapons ban debate.
Alyssa relayed Democratic Senator Chris Murphy’s, 49, take on gun laws, seemingly cosigning his opinion though she doesn’t normally agree with him.
“He [Chris] said: ‘If we can’t move an assault weapons ban, I would be willing to say why don’t we put in place trainings, background checks, mental health screenings,” Alyssa listed before she was abruptly cut-off by an angered Whoopi.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
“Why are we compromising?,” the legendary comedian loudly asked Alyssa as she interrupted her, which she apologized for.
The EGOT winner further ranted: “I’m tired of trying to find a way to justify you being able to keep 75 guns in your house.
“I’m tired of trying to figure out a way to say listen, ‘we have rules and regulations.’

WHOOPI GETS HEATED
Whoopi has been letting it all out on The View lately.
She dropped a naughty word in front of the cameras when the ladies of the show got into a heated debate about weighing children at school.
On March 22, co-host Sara Haines, 45, joined Joy Behar, 80, and Sunny Hostin, 54, during the lively discussion.
Whoopi presented her strong views and said: “We don’t want to give the kids breakfast.”
The foul-mouthed moderator ranted: “People b***h and moan about having to pay for free lunches. A lot of families can only do once or twice a day.”
She continued: “Why are you going to weigh the children? And why do you want that information?”
On Wednesday’s broadcast, the moderator went on: “I listen to these parents talk about what children need and protecting kids, and then I watch folks just damn them! You know, they just damn the kids!”
Whoopi continued: “And I don’t understand. And this, apparently, has nothing to do with anything because the information’s not going back to the Health Board of Education. It makes no sense.”
Sara chimed in: “They also put soda machines, and snack machines in schools and expect that kids are gonna not deal with obesity.
“They don’t take the comprehensive approach to teach the kids, also presenting food options…”
