I’m thinking the left’s official response will be along the lines of, “See? We told you there was too much gun violence!”
We’ll be told that unless gun control legislation is passed now, it is an insult to the memory of these 2 officers.
They’ll conveniently forget about Obama, Holder, and Sharpton stoking the flames that led to the assassination of these NYPD officers.
How about the NYPD crackdown ordered on black market cigarettes that people essentially bootlegged to dodge sales taxes on them, and work to undercut other retailers?
1. The victims were two armed police officers.
2. The perp was a convicted felon and violated some of the strictest gun control laws in the nation during the course of the day yesterday.
The natural response of any rational people living in New York City right now is to arm themselves to the teeth. Like right now.
But don’t you see, stoking the flames is EXACTLY what Obama, Holder, Sharpton & Company MUST do to gin up the anti-gun hysteria. See, just see, the cops had guns, and THAT didn’t prevent them from being assassinated, so why would anybody think that if private gun carry was prevalent among civilians, that would make anything at all better?
Gun control did nothing at all to wrest the weapon out of the hand of Ismaayil Brinsley, and the alert sent out in his wake ironically arrived only a couple of minutes before the act of assassination.
Because it was supposedly "edited out of context by FOX News".
Ergo, Sharpton is innocent.
How do I know this?
On my physician's board, they are threatening to kick me off unless I "apologize" for speaking ill of Sharpton.
No, I'll quit first.
