Did anyone else see Rosey hand out toy guns to her co-workers on the view before christmas? I beleived the guns made a pop noise and shot out confetti.
I was shocked to see her with a toy gun after hearing all her anti-gun speeches..

If I never see another post about Rosie and her cohorts at the View here at FR it won’t be a moment too soon!

Walters: “Why doesn’t everyone just live in a gated community and send the servants to buy the groceries? Then we wouldn’t need bodyguards with guns to protect us.”
Rosie: “That would certainly help”

Walters is prodding her to make an outrageous statement!!!

This should put to rest any arguments that Walters is embarrassed by Rosie. She loves the attention that Rosie brings to The View. She loves that Rosie can say the things that she probably wishes she could say herself and that she can look more “main stream” by not saying them herself.

Well, we now know for sure that Baba Wawa will never fire Rosie O’Donut. They are one and the same — RAT/lib/socialist/feminazis. Baba just comes across a little more refined, and not the course, loud-mouthed sow that Rosie is.

I find it incredible that four women, each of whom is worth millions of dollars, have doormen and security systems, bodyguards and limo drivers...get so much attention.

I’m sorry, Rosie, you poor, misinformed idiot, but the 2nd Amendment that I have read doesn’t say anything about hunting.

It always stands out to me when anti-Second Amendment characters talk of how ‘no one wants to take guns away from hunters.’ It is a red flag for me.

For one thing, I don’t believe O’Donnell (and her ilk) for one second when they say such things. If they had the power to ban all private ownership of all guns — including hunting rifles and shotguns — there is no doubt in my mind that they’d do it.

For another, more important thing, the Second Amendment is not about hunting. I have friends and relatives who hunt, and I support their right to do so, but I don’t hunt, and neither do most other gun owners. The right of self-defense (against criminals and yes, even a tyrannical, oppressive government) is at the heart of the Second Amendment. And in most instances, a handgun is better suited to self-defense than a rifle or shotgun, and you almost NEVER hear a prominent Democrat/liberal defend the idea that law-abiding citizens should be able to own handguns. If I’m 90% sure the Rosie’s of the world would ban hunting rifles if they could, then I’m 100% sure that they’d ban handguns if they had the votes to do so.

When an anti-gun person starts talking about “sensible” gun laws, ask them what their definition of “sensible” is. This usually stops the conversation.

You will notice that anti-gunners always wrap their proposals in the “sensible gun control laws” blanket, yet they never, ever, tell you what those “sensible” laws are.

If they are so sensible, so even handed, so moral, so logical, so filled with wholesome goodness, why don’t the anti-gunners ever give specifics of what a “sensible” gun law is?

"What's amazing to me is that the gun lobby is talking about, well, it's not legal guns that kill people, it's when people get guns illegally. But this is someone who bought a gun legally. It took them five minutes to run a background check. He had been committed to a mental hospital for two days for observation and that didn’t pop up on his record. He was clearly to everyone around him mentally disturbed. And, it's not about, like you said, it’s not about keeping guns out of the hands of hunters. But when a kid this upset, this out of it, can walk into and buy two guns and 50 rounds of bullets and nobody asks a question."

He committed perjury by answering NO to the question on Form 4473. Take a look a question 11 f. There was no way for the FFL to know that he lied on the form.

...and if you were a tree, what kind of tree would you be?

In Rosie's case, this kind:

“Right or wrong, you’re passionate. “

She REALLY said “Wight or wong, you’re passionate”

What she SHOULD have said was “Informed or ignorant, you’re passionate”

Screw them both. AHHH!!!!! I can’t believe I SAID that!!!

Ptui, phew, gasp, what a disgusting thought!!!!

This fat pig of a lesbo has armed guards that she insisted be allowed {with their guns} into her kids school reasoning that if they disarmed they wouldn’t be effective body guards for her kids. See how the logic works, it’s OK for ME and MINE because we are very important, but you miserable peons don’t deserve the right to protect yourselves.

Here's why persons with average or better intelligence can read and comprehend that the Second Amendment protects an individual's right to KABA.

True or False?

Spoons cause obesity.

Pencils cause spelling errors.

Guns cause crime.

Criminals cause crime.

- - 

If guns cause crime pencils cause spelling errors, matches cause arson and spoons cause obesity. But it doesn't cause people to intentionally misconstrue the meaning of the Second Amendment. They do that by choice.
