What is it with the liberals and their doggoned “context” problem? Could be that liberal dogma, when analyzed, is retarded?

In the well-armed, hill country precincts where I reside everything would proceed pretty much the same as always, only with justice a bit more swift, and with considerably less expense for lawyers, judges, prolonged trials and comfortable prison stays.

Big-mouth nanny-boy Bloomberg wouldn’t be welcome here.

If he didn’t mean it “literally”, what did he mean? They should “go on strike, figuratively” - show up for work and get paid, but refuse to do anything?

No, Bloomberg didn’t mean what he said.
And 0bama didn’t mean what he said.
And Feinstein didn’t mean what they said.
And every other one of these POS libs were taken out of context.

Maybe they should stop lying. Then they wouldn’t have to walk it back.

Brown in CA, who's government is hiding billions of tax dollars so they can have an excuse to raise taxes, is glad this idiot is getting all this attention.

Everyone disarm, only the government needs to be armed! Or else the police will strike?

This is just brilliant.

Bloomberg sounds like some kind of Nazi dictator.

It's just amazing the types of controlling fanatics who've gained power in the U.S.

Too bad.
A “literal” strike would have driven the concept of Second Amendment rights home to so many who refuse to see.

24 hours, maximum.

If bloomerburg didn’t have all that money he would probably be “hangin” w/the occupy wall street clowns.
As it is he is just another clown.

Then maybe he should THINK before he speaks before he confirms what we all already knew ... that he was indeed a FOOL!

He meant it. He said it and he meant it and he meant to say it. He should step down after such an assinine and dangerous remark as that.

You didn't really mean it did you bloomy? It is kind of like you are not gay... just because you like other men to do vile and evil things to your exit port. We understand bloomy... perfectly.

Dear CBS News:

Whenever public indignation, public laughter, or getting caught in a lie forces a liberal politician to retract something, you let them gracefully “clarify” instead.

Please stop trying to change the plain meaning of words for the benefit of liberal politicians.

Retract doesn’t mean clarify.

Signed,

The English Language
