Chris Matthews Compares Pro-Gun Senators to 'Jim Crow' Racists
NewsBusters ^

Posted on 04/11/2013 7:42:32 PM PDT by chessplayer

Hardball's Chris Matthews on Thursday again smeared pro-Second Amendment Senators, this time comparing them to "Jim Crow" racists. While talking about GOP politicians who threatened to filibuster the current gun control bill, Matthews spewed, "But you remember when they fought in the early '60s about, about Jim Crow and getting rid of all those racial things down south where it says white only at the gas station, men's room and everything?"

Talking to journalist Chuck Todd, Matthews continued, "And that was the old states of the confederacy were against any of those changes. But now is there that large a body of Republicans out there that are truly being represented by the don't-even-vote crowd?" Apparently, Matthews has again forgotten that it was the Democratic Party that represented the segregationist south.

Duh, someone should ask Obamanation Journalist Chrissy Matthews when a “gun” became a “race.”

He ignores common sense, logic, Americans that live in the heartland, reality, and viewer statistics who watches his show.

Half the folks in Mississippi who do happen to watch his show....would confuse him with that Matt Lauer guy.

If I watched teevee I wouldn’t watch him, just hearing him would make me feel like I needed to go wash the spittle off of me.

To Chris Mathews everything is racist .

I think he has a stigmatism in his mind that blurs everything into race.

That’s all he has, and not even that. The politics of desperation (while kneepadding Obambi)

He’ll probably do it to himself first, stroke or heart attack.

The latter would be preferable, as it’d be nigh impossible to differentiate the former.

Makes perfect sense.

White conservatives demand free access to guns and ammo so they can re-enslave the blacks, hispanics, wimmin and gays.
They miss the roots days.

Guns=hate, guns =slavery, guns=racism, guns=hungry minority kids

You are Sooo smart Chris. You and rev Al Sharpton.
