Bloomberg To Launch Proprietary Anti-Gun Media Arm

The ceaseless torrent of anti-gun commentary from the New York Times, Washington Post, MSNBC, and other “mainstream” media outlets, apparently isn’t enough for billionaire firearm prohibitionist Michael Bloomberg. On May 8, Capital reported that the ex-mayor of New York is developing a “news operation” to work alongside his Everytown for Gun Safety organization in furtherance of his megalomaniacal gun control agenda.

"his megalomaniacal gun control agenda." Now that is an understatement if ever I've seen one. It's almost like he has some sort of mental issue goin' on.

Seems to me that the most significant effect of Bloomberg’s actions so far has been to create the largest gun buying spree in the history of the world.

The Common Thread: Rage
In my experience, the common thread in anti–gun people is rage. Either anti–gun people harbor more rage than others, or they’re less able to cope with it appropriately. Because they can’t handle their own feelings of rage, they are forced to use defense mechanisms in an unhealthy manner. Because they wrongly perceive others as seeking to harm them, they advocate the disarmament of ordinary people who have no desire to harm anyone. So why do anti–gun people have so much rage and why are they unable to deal with it in appropriate ways? Consider for a moment that the largest and most hysterical anti–gun groups include disproportionately large numbers of women, African–Americans and Jews. And virtually all of the organizations that claim to speak for these “oppressed people” are stridently anti–gun. Not coincidentally, among Jews, Blacks and women there are many “professional victims” who have little sense of identity outside of their victimhood.

LOL! Kinda yup. The article says “despite” the msm push, it just ain’t quite enough. When will the cable/satellite providers pick up the “Anti-gun Network”? Isn’t there some villainous hacker out there that can drain this asshat’s bank accounts?

Possibly a tad on the tongue in cheek side.

His other propaganda machines seem to be spinning their wheels.

Time to roll out some fresh Astroturf.

The only thing standing in the way of totalitarian government is a population of gun owners.

Give up your gun, give up your freedom.

How about his two good buddy’s that are being convicted of crimes against the people of New York. He is a criminal and needs to go to prison. I won’t even start on treason and mental issues.

Bloomberg pursues his pet neurotic obsession; meanwhile, New York falls apart.

Congratulations New York voters.
