Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter became the latest politician to speak out against the National Rifle Association’s proposal to put armed guards in every American school to dissuade incidents such as the horrific shooting massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., joining New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg in his Mayors Against Illegal Guns initiative.
Nutter, a staunch advocate of gun control, called the idea proposed by NRA CEO Wayne LaPierre a “dumb-ass idea.”
Nutter, a Democrat, was speaking about a gunman who shot and killed two firefighters in Webster, N.Y., Monday after they arrived at a house fire.
“We need to ban assault weapons. We need to ban the high-capacity clips and magazines. We need serious background information system upgrade," the Democrat said Wednesday.
“I guess out of last week’s bizarre press statement—it wasn’t a press conference—I guess that Mr. [Wayne] LaPierre would say that firefighters need to have armed guards go with them. I think it just shows that that was a completely dumb-ass idea from the start,” he then told MSNBC. “The American public has really had enough and that we’re not going to allow what has happened in the past to go on.”
“People need to demand a plan, and cities all across America certainly need to join this fight,” he said.
What is worse? Having a dumb-ass idea...or Being a stupid-ass politician?
My answer would be why not both in one package.
My nomination for No. 1, would be: Raúl M. Grijalva, 3rd District of Arizona.
Never having done a legitimate days work and only living on the dole since arriving in the States!
There are many others that prove we need Term Limits!
Got a link? I’m just curious to see what they look like. I’ve had a bugger of a time getting 5 rounds of 8mm into my Mauser. I’d imagine the newer stripper clips are plastic?
You asked to see what they looked like I told you how to find out.
We need to ban dumb-ass people. Period.
This is the nutter who has watched black racist gangs attack and beat up whites while claiming the attacks had nothing to do with race.
Let’s all listen to him. /s/
LMBO!!
This from the same guy who thinks it's a brilliant idea to install condom dispensers in all the schools. (By the way, I wonder who got that contract and how much it was overpriced, wink wink...?)
To the last person that suggested that there should be laws making it illegal to own assault weapons I simply responded: "I have a better idea - why don't we just make it illegal to kill people." The look I got from her was priceless.
The Garand clip is 8 rounds.
During the Los Angeles riots, firefighters had to have police escorts. It was why the rest of the city had almost no police protection.
Fine, let's start with the _resident. You know, the guy with control of the most deadly assault weapons of all time. They're called nuclear weapons.
IIRC, felons can vote in NY...I wonder how he voted?
Nutter’s jurisdiction ends at the Philly city line. He’s the same as your crazy uncle outside of his jurisdiction .... a nobody with an opinion.
