Media shows its true colors on guns at women’s march
The Hill ^ | 7/17/17

Posted on 07/17/2017 6:55:52 PM PDT by richardb72

Gun control advocates keep claiming that guns are only used to kill people and that people should just rely on the police to protect them.

But gun controllers’ actions keep showing that they don’t believe that. When it comes to their safety, they understand that guns save lives. Guns are for them, not the untrusted, unwashed masses.

Over the weekend, Women’s March leaders, such as co-president Linda Sarsour, were walking around with private armed security.

Given that local police were already present at the demonstration, one wonders why couldn’t police provide sufficient protection?

After all, the police were just yards away, not a phone call and an eight to 10 minutes' wait for officers to arrive.

Of course, Michael Bloomberg and the executives at his Everytown for Gun Safety don’t go anywhere without their security details.

The Women’s March participants carried signs such as “Real men don’t need guns” or “Loaded guns under beds are bad,” but their actions presumably imply that at least women need guns for protection when they are out in public.

The media gives extensive negative news coverage to conservatives who are caught engaging in extramarital affairs because of the family values hypocrisy angle. The hypocrisy is said to be what makes the story newsworthy, but one will search in vain to see any of the mainstream media pointing to this hypocrisy by gun control advocates.

This hypocrisy is nothing new.

Gun control advocates from politicians such as former Chicago Mayor Richard Daley to Media Matters’s David Brock to celebrities such as Rosie O’Donnell have all criticized gun ownership for others while they have guns being used to protect themselves. . . .

Come, now. We all know better. *NO* Socialist\Leftist does anything on their OWN. They use the FORCE of *govt* to do the dirty task(s) for them.

They would never stoop so low as to get their own hands dirty...or bloodied.

Meanwhile, Sarsour’s arrogance grows by the minute. If the DNC could appoint the likes of Debbie Blabbermouth Schultz as chairman, then that post is Sarsour’s whenever she demands it and who will dare say her nay?

The Sociailist\Leftists may nominate any Totalitarian to any position they so wish (do so now: Schumer/Pelosi/Reid/Brazile).

The issue becomes forwarding a voice whom can articulate the OPPOSITE. Unfort., the (R) haven’t been able to coalesce around a single message let alone a single voice. Those that HAVE been able to do so (Sowell and company) are pushed out of the limelight by the (R) divas (McCain\Linda\etc.) or pushed to the background.

As they have shown in their political bent, they do so too w/ their message...IE: They don’t *WANT* to lead, don’t wish to be the clarion call, walk-the-walk.

Back about 1992 or so I was involved in a Pro-Firearms group in Austin,TX and sarah brady came to the University of Texas to spew her BS. We went in numbers to the “show” and during the Q and A session I raised My hand and when called on I asked why she had all the Armed Security with her and why We got run through a metal detector, handheld wands and some even got patted down to obtain entry ?

She ignored My valid question and moved on to a commie in the front row.

The B!TCH !!!
