RICHMOND, VA—Governor Ralph Northam condemned the group of gun owners who assembled yesterday, calling the concept "simply un-American."
"A militia assembling to defend their rights against tyranny is a dangerous first in American history," he said to a group of reporters, still teary-eyed from the tragic lack of violence at yesterday's rally. "This is not what America was founded on. It is not what our forefathers would have wanted."
"This well-regulated militia having the right to bear arms is diametrically opposed to everything the Founding Fathers wanted for our country." The governor said that Washington, Jefferson, and "those other guys" all probably did not like guns very much and when forced to fight would have used pointy sticks.
"It was not until the Trump administration that Americans started liking guns."
Northam said that we could have a better idea what the founders would have thought about guns, but sadly, "they did not see fit to leave us a document by which we might guard our country."
These headlines get me every time... lol
Babylon Bee: so close to the truth we cannot tell the difference
Apparently he didn’t get the message.
Oh, the source... fished in.
The War of Northam Aggression....
... never heard the term until I lived in New Orleans and got a dose of the other side of history.
It was very believable.
Ethan Nicolle is a funny and talented guy. His Appalachian Apocalypse with writer Billy Tucci was really good. Zombies with a Biblical basis.
Is it too late to abort this KKKer?
Got me too. It sounded like something I'd hear from a Democrat Politician - like Northam. But then I saw the Bablyon Bee by-line. Yup, they got me on this one. Very good.
...still teary-eyed...
Would ruin the make-up.
Did they steal this from CNN??
It appears Ralph is either an idiot or he was born yesterday.
“Coonman” Speaks!
That’s literally what the Founding Fathers did.
Remember, it was the North that first enacted targeting civilians in the battle of Fredericksburg. Robert E. Lee attempted to have the battle away from town but the North wanted to kill civilians.
FIRST TIME?????
Has this jerk heard about the Revolutionary War?
Well, I guess it would be a first if you thought of the American Revolution as British colonial history.
Every time.
