It was a new year, but the same lament from MSNBC's Melissa Harris-Perry. The leftist agenda to curtail gun rights has been frustrated. On Saturday morning, the weekend host and weekday professor treated guns (not people) as the killers as she pleaded for young blacks to have a "separate kind of legal construction to address the violence that they might perpetrate in the world because they're living under this kind of mental constant threat and belief of death.

Uh, what? Is there ANYTHING that mel is not an expert on? Her depth of knowledge is just EEEEE-normous. Sadly, there's plenty of LPOS/SPOS/IPOS/UPOS that will buy her bs all day long.

Considering cops have a higher incidence of domestic violence than the rest of the population, I guess Ms. Perry thinks cops should be disarmed?

LOL! I know right. If someone (husband) obtains a divorce, he would ‘less’ a wife. Or something. Journalist. Love ‘em of leave ‘em. Me, I think I’ll leave ‘em.

More domestic violence deaths are from knives, blunt objects and physical attacks than from guns.

“...less husbands killing their wives.”

Don’t they teach basic English grammar in school anymore?

LOL! Want to see a massive fail? Ask mel to diagram a sentence. Remember doing that? I saw something the other day were a suspect “fleed” the scene. Huh? Face palm.

It costs $62,538 a year to attend Wake Forest. Imagine spending that kind of money to send your child to be ‘educated’ by a professor lacking in basic language skills.

In the Bad Old Days, maybe journalists were Commie shills, but at least they could compose correct sentences. Now they’re just Commie shills.

Dang, really? UNC-Charlotte is less than $10,000 for a commuter student.

“”separate kind of legal construction to address the violence that they might perpetrate in the world because they’re living under this kind of mental constant threat and belief of death. “

Is she saying young black males are living under a violent delusion? It would seem so.

Not everyone is as addled as Melissa Harris-Perry, of course, but her inability to convey a thought (even if it’s a crazy thought) is typical.

Meet her parents:

Who does she hate more, her White mother or Black Father for being a race-traitor?
