CNN's Anderson Cooper "no guns in Burma" comment

[WBL 1952]

Caught several minutes of Anderson Cooper's rant about Burma the other night.

He was having cross talk with someone regarding the population's inability to resist Government actions against them and made a matter of fact statement along the line of "Of course, the people of Burma don't have any guns".

I don't even think Anderson realized that what he had just said was a vindication of our own 2nd Amendment rights..........

“Of course, the people of Burma don’t have any guns”.

Bump.

"Of course, the people of Burma don't have any guns".

He meant "gays", not "guns".

If they did, they would just be careless with them and all the children find the guns under sleeping mats, and would shoot each other playing “Military and Monks...”

Maybe the dolts at CNN will now realize why we have a 2nd Amendment... but I doubt it.

I wonder what Andy Cooper thinks about ‘no gays in Iran’....(chuckle)

A dim bulb flickers brightly for a moment.

There's a cheesy movie from about 1984, Streets of Fire, in which a motorcycle gang seems to have the run of a city. The police are pretty much powerless. Of course, there's a hero, and he slugs it out with the top bad guy (Willem Dafoe) and he wins. At about that time, a huge crowd of citizens comes running up the street because they think that maybe the reign of terror may be ending.

The police stand there doing nothing. The motorcycle gang stands there, with their leader on the ground, not quite sure what to do next.

And the crowd of 200 citizens all pull out rifles and point them at the motorcycle gang.

The gang picks up their fallen leader and ride away.

RKBA.

Do you remember what night and what program? I'm sure his comment can be verified via CNN Transcripts.

Even the brain washed mine blurts out a lucid thought sometimes.

Oh, but it would never happen here, don’tcha know. That’s why we need our guns confiscated. /s

The 2nd Amendment is for hunting, right? /sarc

COOPER: And — and you know have maybe as many as 4,000 monks detained somewhere, people — I mean, these are the holiest people in the country. They have been beaten down. These people don’t have guns.

We’re looking at these pictures of people without any weapons just being beaten on the streets, and it seems like the demonstrations have stopped.

Gun control works perfectly....in dictatorships, for dictators.
