Jon Stewart To President Obama: Act Quickly If You’re Going ‘To Take Away Americans’ Guns’
Breitbart ^ | 07/22/2015 | AWR Hawkins

Posted on 07/22/2015 9:16:37 AM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

During the July 21 airing of Comedy Central’s The Daily Show, host Jon Stewart told President Barack Obama he needs to act quickly if he’s going to “take away Americans’ guns and declare martial law.”

Obama walked out to sit beside Stewart amid rousing rounds of applause. The two exchanged niceties amid laughter, with Stewart pointing out Obama has “about a year” left in office and Obama responded by saying he is going to issue an executive order forbidding Stewart from leaving The Daily Show. (Stewart previously announced he is leaving the show in August.)

According to Deadline, Stewart then began making observations and asking questions based on Obama’s limited time in office.

Stewart said, ““You don’t have that much time to take away Americans’ guns [and] declare martial law… if you’re going to do that, you better get started.”

Things John Stewart might have said if he lived in the late 30’s and 40’s:

“This way to the Showers.”

“Do you have gold or silver in any of your teeth?”

“Don’t worry about the rest of your family. You’ll see them soon.”

“I just want to live Der Wirtschafts und Verwaltungshauptamt. I’ll help you. Just tell me what to do.”

Why does Obama go on these late night entertainment shows only? When was the last time he was on any halfway serious news show such as Meet The Press???

They do this, I think there will be a lot more people taking them seriously.

They continually show their true fascist thinking... Problem is, our side hasn’t taken them seriously.

I have always taken even their jests as a sign of intent.

If you take those indicators seriously, those (allegedly) on our side are all over you calling you a "conspiracy theorist" or "wacko bird" or some such.

Between our enemies, the traitors, and those with incredible 'normalcy bias', sane, aware people can be tough to find.

Probably a LOT more this morning, after his idiotic comment.

To casually joke about the potential for death for American citizens is just reprehensible. But then, he’s a liberal, so that’s one and the same as reprehensible.

The right people are “in charge” this time.

What’s a few hundred thousand more bodies, right?

I didn't see the actual tape, but my sense is that Stewart was being sarcastic, i.e., he was saying that it's absurd for anyone to think that Obama would try to confiscate guns and declare martial law.

This is standard left-wing mockery; whenever they mock the very possibility of something happening, you can be sure it's something they plan to do. We all remember how they said it was absurd to think that anyone might suffer criminal sanctions for opposing gay marriage.

Stewart is an idiot, and I believe he was trying be funny and sarcastic. But he fails to realize - or doesn’t give a rat’s rear end - that millions of folks in this country are already jittery, and take this issue damn seriously. He appears to have been pulling the chain a bit to get a reaction.

What’s going on, brother Bulwyf? How’re things in your AO, buddy? Good to hear from you.

See my post at 51. I concur.

"It’s a standard propaganda technique to make light of things you intend to do. It makes it easier to convince people later that people noticing your actions are merely nutcases that see conspiracy where there is none."

I didn't see your comment before I posted mine, but that is exactly my take on this.

That was my take also. But remember, just 10 years ago they used to joke about "gay marriage" the same way.

True that, brother.

Like I said in an earlier post... one has only to study the history of these people to understand that when they tell you what they’re going to do you, they mean it.
