Bloomberg: We Can’t Just Let “Average” Americans Have Guns
Bearing Arms ^ | January 3, 2020 | Cam Edwards

Posted on 01/03/2020 7:24:26 AM PST by C19fan

Gun control sugar daddy and Democrat presidential candidate Michael Bloomberg was asked on Thursday about the shooting at the West Freeway Church of Christ in White Settlement, Texas, and took the opportunity to blast the crazy idea that the “average” American has the right to bear arms for self defense.

Tosca Austen @ToscaAusten Bloomberg criticizes Texas church hero who saved 200 lives. “It’s the job of law enforcement to carry guns that .kill. We just can’t “let” the average American have guns in a crowded place...gun control saves lives...”

What happened when the Brits, our elite leaders tried to take away our guns the first time at Lexington April 19, 1775? :

Thomas Jefferson, “I enclose you a list of the killed, wounded, and captives of the enemy from the commencement of hostilities at Lexington in April, 1775, until November, 1777, since which there has been no event of any consequence …

I think that upon the whole it has been about one half the number lost by them, in some instances more, but in others less. This difference is ascribed to our superiority in taking aim when we fire; every soldier in our army having been intimate with his gun from his infancy.” - Thomas Jefferson, letter to Giovanni Fabbroni, June 8, 1778

SECOND AMENDMENT

Right to Bear Arms

Passed by Congress September 25, 1789. Ratified December 15, 1791. The first 10 amendments form the Bill of Rights:

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

But it is okay for this jack@$$ and all his leftist elite pals to have armed guards 24/7/365 to keep “we average” Americans off their lawns.

As others keep saying, we’re waiting for Bloomberg to disarm his body guards - then he can tell us just how safe he feels.

"Average" Americans can't have guns, drink soda, eat hamburgers, etc etc....

Or use plastic straws, use gas in your car, heat your home with natural gas …

Life would be better if we just eliminate Democrats.

Nor Big Gulp drinks.

Nor plastic straws.

Nor flavored inhalers.

Nor a whole list of things the nanny-state wants banned:

He’s going to amend the Constitution?

Go for it, nothing wrong with trying.

In the meantime, follow it!

Bloomberg you ignorant slut, a few weeks of training and a badge, does not make one safe with a gun. Only their morals can and yours suck.

Go to hell you pompous a$$! As long as you have armed bodyguards, you are a filthy hypocrite. And stop trying to buy your way into the White House, you America-hating piece of what I can’t post here.

“Don’t be a hypocrite Bloomberg, disarm your security team.”

After the elite hypocrite liberals disarm permanently for a couple decades, we might listen to them if they are still alive.

However, we will still never give up our 2nd amendment rights to these modern day Hitlers/Stalins/Mao’s.

Who, Mr Doomberg, is “average”?
The military veteran?
The senior citizen, too old to physically fight?
Your bodyguards with their guns?
