Ex-CNN anchor to gun controllers: 'Shut the f--- up'

Lynne Russell, a former CNN anchor who worked for the cable network between 1983 and 2001 – and who was attacked by an armed felon during a trip with her husband – issued a sharp rebuke against those who want to control Americans’ access to guns: “Shut the f— up,” she said, to a local television station.

“If you don’t want to carry, please don’t,” Russell said to Fox 411. “Then, shut the f— up about it. Make your own decisions.”

You go girl. Don't expect any calls from nannie bloomers and the momunists or margabby kelley-giffords puppeteers to assist in infringing. Good thing she's "former" cnn because they'd probably run her off for this.

With every “Serious Crisis” that comes along - such as a school shooting, etc.- we end up losing a little more Liberty

So Could I ask one question: Why is it that we can't use examples like this to push back the totalitarian left and expand our Liberty?

Why is it just one way, every F***king time?

Because we’ve been told time and again by the so much smarter libs that run the media that defensive use of firearms NEVER, EVER, EVER, EVER happens. Kinda like they’re telling us to STFU. Uh, no. PC Boulevard is a one way street with only left turns allowed. And guess who’s drivin’ the wrong way? :>}

Liberal? Not sure at this point. Things were different back in the late 90's
so it's possible she's not.

Yes, as some have said in the past, the national socialist left is like a constrictor (Anaconda, etc.) snake around the body of lady liberty.

Each “Serious Crisis” is like a person breathing out to which the snake take advantage and squeezes just a little bit more.
[I’m not trying to ‘offend’ anyone by daring to compare the national socialist left to a snake... at least snakes are useful and don’t do what they do out of pure evil]

BTW, Isn’t it funny how one LIE from the national socialist left is supported by another LIE?

In this case the Leftist Lie of an ‘Objective’ media suppresses talk of defensive gun uses as much as possible.

Being Liberal is one of the national socialist left’s biggest LIES.

Liberal implies support of Liberty... the national socialist left no longer does that.

It’s pretty obvious why she’s a “former” CNN anchor.
