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. Its the job of law enforcement to carry guns that .kill. We just cant let the average American have guns in a crowded place...gun control saves lives...

Wasnt it Mao who said the state needed to control all the guns so guns couldnt be used against the communist party?
He understands, as all anti-gunners do. It’s the contempt that drives them, not only for the founding principles but us lowly peons as well.
This has been the cry of every dictator who ever existed.
Nice!
How does such an idiot become a billionaire without inheriting it?
Beto is dumb. Bloomberg is even dumber.
I declare FReepers above average.
Courts have ruled that police have no duty to protect you.
You have the duty to protect yourself.
Communist POS. Hey, Democrats. You have no idea what you are asking for, do yah?
Except for personal security details for pigs that believe they are more important than other pigs, right comrade Cocteau.
“Who, Mr Doomberg, is average?”
Seems to me an armed American citizen carrying to protect themselves, their families and yours, from criminals and destruction, are not just average. They are the first line of defense and above the sheep he thinks we are.

Its the job of law enforcement to carry guns that kill.
So we will each have our own police body guard?
Didn’t think so.
The words of the reckless pierce like swords, but the tongue of the wise brings healing. (Proverbs 12:18)
Our words can fatally wound they can stab, pierce and slash those around us. They can destroy friendships, kill marriages, bring down companies, ruin churches and start wars.
Bloomberg - lay down your sword, bend a knee in prayer, and give thanks to GOD that we are One Nation under GOD.
GOD, not he, is in control of our destiny as a nation and HE alone will judge us. Until then I'm sticking to my guns.
"To Protect and to Serve[1] the ubiquitous creed emblazoned across millions of police cars throughout Los Angeles and indeed the United States.
This motto is consistent with the common belief that police officers as well as other law enforcement officers are here to protect us. After all, we are all taught to dial 9-1-1 when we need help.
Subject to narrow exceptions[2], the United States Constitution does not require law enforcement officers to protect you from other people, according to the U.S. Supreme Court. This notion contradicts our engrained perceptions, but its still the law today."
The police are under no obligation to place themselves in danger to save anyone from harm. They are required simply to apprehend or those who break the law. Lethal resistance to arrest can be dealt with in a lethal manner. In an active shooter situation, this is most easily accomplished once a shooter has run out of ammunition or can be flanked. Please notice that in shootings like Columbine and Parkland that the police took the low-risk approach without too many repercussions. That was not illegal on their part, but it was certainly shameful.
Occasionally, brave policemen of high moral fiber will place themselves at risk to stop an active shooter. It seems that most of us at FR would never allow harm to come to innocents if there was a way to stop such an event.
We The People traditionally protect ourselves.
ESAD Kapo Bloomberg
Bloomberg is not fit to be president.

Interesting. Didn’t know that. Thanks.
I think Bloomberg does not view himself as one of the “average” people.
Dear redwood71,
Roger that!
