Megyn Kelly Today, Today: In Which Tom Brokaw Gets Cut Off While Speaking Out Against the NRA
Jezebel ^ | 10/03/2017 | Bobby Finger

Posted on 10/03/2017 9:25:45 AM PDT by nikos1121

Welcome to Megyn Kelly Today, Today, a new daily column in which we will share the most memorable things that happened on Megyn Kelly Today every morning until we are no longer able to watch Megyn Kelly Today without feeling like there will be no tomorrow.

This is a short one because today’s Clip of the Day is all that really matters. Watch it below! Here’s a transcript: ·A man in the audience named Bill asked Tom Brokaw, one of Megyn Kelly’s guests, “We’re constantly bombarded with the news day and night. When does this become harmful to us and our children?”

·Tom Brokaw said, “We are where we are because of the power of people who wanted these kinds of guns, and the NRA managed to organize them and get them as a political force in America. So the question is, if you’re not happy with what has happened, your individual obligation as a citizen is to organize on the other side. And that’s possible as well. The NRA has a lot of money, obviously, and if you’re running against the NRA... you’re portrayed as a traitor against America. You know, you’re not in favor of people who have weapons... We’re a long way away from that second amendment in which we said that a well regulated militia is important to our country...” ·Tom Brokaw kept talking, but Megyn Kelly interrupted by saying, “Got it. Gotta leave it at that, Tom. Thank you to our entire panel. We’re up against a hard break, apologies Tom Brokaw. Sorry, they’re wrapping me hard because we got a hard break coming up. But listen, this debate will not end now. There are people who defend the second amendment who believe you can’t legislate against evil, and those who believe we have to have an honest conversation. Gotta leave it at that. We’ll be right back.”

Mission accomplished. Megyn.

You’ll still be fired by Christmas.

Nikos, good to see you—hope all is well with you.

I’m fine. How about you? It’s really hard to listen to the news, even the posts here. Do you recall this time with Obama? Every single stinking day there was something that made you wince.

With Trump, every day we rejoice, only to have the push back from the left, and the media and his own party.

The guy is doing all the heavy lifting himself.

On Kelly, I have to say that I think she cut off Brokaw because he had his talking points, and didn’t answer the question asked. So, let’s give her some credit.

More than 50 people were murdered yesterday but more than 50 million disarmed citizens have been murdered by their governments.

Sorry, MEGYN, the TRUMP TRAIN has already left the station. You were left behind.

It’s horrifying and sensational and makes for truly engrossing news but, the fact remains, you’re far more likely to be murdered with someone’s bare hands than by an assault rifle. You’re definitely more likely to be shot with a hand gun... especially if you live in Chicago, St. Louis or Baltimore.

“A well balanced breakfast, being necessary to the healthy start of the day, the right of the people to keep and eat food shall not be infringed.”

Who has the right to food? Is the answer “a well-balanced breakfast” or is it “the people”?

The concept of the militia is not central to the Second Amendment. The right belongs to the people.

Moron Brokaw doesn’t even know that in the 1700’s, “well-regulated” meant “well trained.”

didn’t someone post here or did I hear today on the radio, that if you add all the people killed in mass USA shootings since 1900, it would still be less that the number of people shot in Chicago over a weekend or maybe year to date.

Doing fine.

Miss your quizzes!

President Trump IS doing the heavy lifting himself—we all worked so hard to give the GOP all the power, and they work against us.

Watched the President in Puerto Rico—cannot imagine Obama doing that meeting. Trump did this regularly meeting with his teams on large construction projects.

I pray for President Trump every day, and rejoice that Hillary did not win.

“Hard breaks” are real. The computer is going to go to a commercial in 5..4..3..2.. seconds and there’s nothing anybody can do about it. I’ve heard this on the radio many times, including on Rush’s show.

CNN never talks about “going to a hard break” when they cut somebody off — they just “lose audio” and go on to the next guest or segment.

Democrats have been blaming the NRA since 1963. in 1968 they really went wacko on the NRA calling it the “National Rifle Assassinations”.
At that time the NRA had less than a million members which soon went well above a million, no lobbying arm yet they were reviled as a lobby, now they DO have a lobbying arm.

Or, as Tom Brokow would say, "“A well balanced breakfast, being necessary to the healthy start of the day important, the right of the people to keep and eat food shall not be infringed.”"

I guess Tom lied when he said he was retiring about 50 years ago...what a gas bag he is.

Though I strongly agree with what you said, I might point out that people that think it’s about hunting look like fools. ;)

All depends on what (or who) you’re hunting.
