Libertarian VP William Weld calls rifles "weapons of mass destruction", says pistols are more of a problem than rifles. (Headline cut to fit)

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

A rifle is a “weapons of mass destruction” only in the hands of a trained marksman who is properly equipped for the task.

Trump surrogates need to spread this to make sure these clowns only cannibalize HRC votes. I wouldn’t want Trump himself giving any attention to them because it’ll raise their profile.

"What can you do to help control this flow of guns, if anything?"

William Weld: "You shouldn't have anybody who is on the terrorist watch list buy any gun at all."

If liberals have their way, the ONLY people on 'terrorist watch lists' will be conservative Americans.

More disinformation from an ignorant fool. First, there is no military organization in the world that has a 5 shot magazine for its standard issue battle rifle. Secondly, the notion that conversion of semi-auto to fully automatic by simply removing some “magic” pin, is complete nonsense. Gun grabbers live by spreading bullshit.

[Gaffer]

"The five shot rifle, that is a standard military rifle, the problem is if you attach a clip to it that holds more shells and if you remove the pin so that it becomes an automatic weapon, and those are independent criminal offences. That is when they become, essentially, a weapon of mass destruction. The problem with handguns probably is even worse than the problem of the AR15."

This man is woefully uninformed as well as being just plain stupid. After incorrectly citing a 5-shot rifle as the standard military rifle (maybe for WWI) and then saying handguns are an even bigger threat, he brags about his own personal carry situation even offering to brandish his for the interviewer. How big of a dumbass could one Libertarian be? BTW, I'd like to know where that "pin" in my AR-15 that I could just remove to make it full auto. Frigging putz.

It’s a tool, Silly Willy, it’s a tool, and like other tools, it can be used for “good” or for “bad”.

Honestly, I wonder how civilization survive with this level of intellect (or lack thereof)...smh.

[Read Write Repeat]

Weld is a Mass hole retard.

So much for libertarians - at one time they stood for freedom, but now they’re just plain insane.

[baltimorepoet]

Weld, like many from Massachusetts, appears to be just another know-nothing, elitist jackass.

[BitWielder1]

As much as I sometimes like to think in Libertarian terms, I have yet to see a Libertarian leader or candidate that's not off his rocker somehow.

[Ancesthntr]

THERE is the true face of the Libertarian Party in 2016, you #NeverTrump morons! It is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Demonrat Party, meant to suck away votes from the Republican and install Hillary.

[Little Ray]

I thought this was the Libertarian Party, not the Democrat Party.
Oh, well.

[CodeToad]

Libertarian = Extreme left wing liberal that likes to smoke pot.

[i_robot73]

Damn! How far they have fallen!? FINALLY, those on FR can label the (L) appropiately.

Though, I guess it’s no worse than the GOP: Lip service to the platform\base, non-adherence every time else.

Now, to go find a party...

[Boogieman]

“The five shot rifle, that is a standard military rifle...”

The standard military rifle is an automatic weapon that can carry dozens of rounds...

[MarkL]

First off, Bill Weld is an elitist, lawless a$$hat. If there's anyone who has NO BUSINESS being anywhere near the libertarian ticket, it's Weld!

Secondly, this is the only rile of mass destruction of which I'm aware...

The M55 "Nuke Launcher."

The only problem is that it's from a really bad (but admittedly extremely fun) movie, "Starship Troopers.

Pretty piss-poor liberaltarian if you ask me.

[jch10]

Yes, it is and don’t you forget it! Didn’t know I agreed with the Libertarians.

Now, sit down and be quiet.
