TOPICS: Issues
KEYWORDS:
The laughable outrageous advice from Bloomberg to law enforcement officers around the country on gun control was just that, ill conceived.

But he will not be deterred. The latest is just his attempt to break "the powerful grip of NRA on politicians".

And this won't be the last from Bloomberg either. We need to keep our eyes and ears open.

So, if we're not all soldiers, will we be criminals, too?

There's one thing that Bloomers doesn't seem to understand about the NRA, and that is that the NRA is funded mostly by a grassroots movement. Eliminate the lobby and you still haven't cleared a path to gun control, because the majority of the people won't stand for it.

There's talk in the media about the gun industry, but I've got news for them... the gun industry isn't very big. Remington and Ruger and Glock are small potatoes compared to the petroleum and banking industries, for example, or the auto industry, or big pharma.

So he can complain about the NRA all he likes, but when he does he's really complaining about all those d@mn bitter clingers out there who aren't willing to trust the government alone to protect them personally.

My response to that article was censored. It was held for “moderation” then subsequently not published. It wasn’t hateful or obscene, just short and to the point.

More leftist fascism, controlling the debate before it even begins. Guess when you regurgitate the same stale, statist ideas that can’t stand on their own merit, the next best thing is to block reasoned debate.

Hmmmm.

I didn’t know that, though I never tried to comment on Bloomberg.
