Ted Nugent defends anti-Semitic message on gun control (barf)

Right-wing rocker Ted Nugent defended his anti-Semitic post slamming prominent supporters of gun control, bizarrely claiming that anyone with sense knows that "Jews for gun control are Nazis in disguise."

In the original post on the Motor City Madman's Facebook page, the Nuge shared an image of prominent politicians like Michael Bloomberg, Sen. Charles Schumer and Chicago Mayor Rahm Emmanuel under the banner "So who is really behind gun control?" Each photo was accompanied by an Israeli flag.

TED NUGENT'S RECENT HISTORY OF OFFENSIVE REMARKS

The Daily News’ coverage of the post even prompted a backlash among people who normally support “Uncle Ted” — but the 67-year-old gun nut stood by the message. Ted Nugent's response to the Daily News. Ted Nugent via Facebook Ted Nugent's response to the Daily News.

“Just when you hope that mankind couldnt possibly get any dumber or more dishonest, superFreaks rise to the occasion," Nugent wrote in his new post Monday evening. "What sort of racist prejudiced (piece of sh--) could possibly not know that Jews for guncontrol are nazis in disguise? "NEVER AGAIN!" Anyone? Anyone?? (Are you fu--king kidding me?)”

The Nuge ranted that some of his best friends are Jewish.

“The NEVER AGAIN battlecry was universally embraced by all good people who will make sure another Holocaust never happens again. Freaks have plummeted to whole new low. Plummet on punks. Plummet on. Meanwhile I adjust my yamika at my barmitzva playing my kosher guitar. My dad killed nazis & saved Jews in WWII. Eat me,” he wrote.

One of Nugent’s supporters singled out The News.

“Nugent is correct, you guys at NYDaileynews are the propaganda spreading traitors and fools...” Cynthia Gallagher commented.

Nugent replied, “Bingo.”

Shira Goodman, the executive director of CeaseFirePA, dismissed Nugent's latest post. Her predecessor was among those singled out by the right-wing rocker.

“Our supporters across the board — regardless of race, religion, gender, ethnicity — recognize Nugent's anti-Semitic screed for the hateful bigotry it is. His post today equating those calling for stronger gun laws with Nazis sinks him lower into the pit of hatred and ignorance that is the sanctuary of extremists,” she said.

The politicians singled out in the image did not comment.

But Harvard Law School Prof. Alan Dershowitz — also in the photo array — said he was happy to be associated with the pols.

“I like the company this bigot puts me in. And I admire the flag he places me near,” he previously told The News.

Putting the Israeli flag next to their images was a bit much. Most gun grabbers, Jewish or not have anti Israeli tendencies to say the least, but it's amazing how left-wing politically correct "not sees" who bash Israel accusing them of racism, practicing apartheid and how they revise history saying they're living on land that's not theirs to begin with, and refusing to allow themselves to be pushed into the Mediterranean by bomb tossing knife wielding Palestinians, are now suddenly our friends only when CERTAIN (ie White supremacists) anti Semites crawl out of the woodwork with their equally f*cked up Zionist conspiracy theories. But yet these gutless wonders are totally oblivious to the same line of shiite spewed by radical Islamists and Calypso Louie Farrakhan and other Black supremacists.

Well, it’s not like people are going to give him attention because of his brilliant musical career.

[txnativegop]

come on, he recorded some real good songs on occasion. LOL

But I do believe he is losing his grip on reality.
He has always been a wild child so to speak.

Nugent has chunks of guys like you in his stool.

There are certain places you don’t go if you want your voice to be heard and your arguments considered for merit.

Making blanket statements about Jews, Blacks, Hispanics, or any other group is unfortunate.

Lay the facts out there. People will connect the dots where appropriate.

If you have to guide them along racial lines, the appropriate nature of your argument suffers.

“Segments.” “Not everyone.”

Not all Whites are perfect.

Not all Jews are bad.

Same for Blacks, Hispanics or any other group.

Congress? I’m still thinking...

Putting the Israeli flag next to their images was a bit much.

And saying that Bloomberg is the mayor of "Jew York" and "9/11 Israeli agent"?

[r_barton]

He jumped the shark on this one.

[Olog-hai]

Using the Israeli flag turns it into a “Jewish conspiracy” instead of a liberal attack on freedom. Also, it’s disingenuous of Ted to claim his father’s legacy as his own.

[montag813]

The post is disgusting, and Ted should take it down. It actually says “Jew York” and talks about anti-Jew subjects having nothing to do with guns. Ted may have gotten punked into posting this, but now he is just being stupid.

[ltc8k6]

He has Lautenberg on there.

He died in 2013.

[CharleysPride]

Whoa — I just said his music career has faded, I don’t think he’s a cannibal.

[ozzymandus]

Sold a lot of records, have you, Charlie? Or are you too busy agreeing with the commie punks at the News to produce any hits?o

The Israeli flag does not belong there and Ted Nugent should have called that bunch by their real name: JINOs.

[Mr. Mojo]

Free for All was probably his best album, with "Stranglehold" the standout. After that....well....

The JPFO issued a statement about Nugent's post:
"We are appalled at the insensitivity of Ted Nugent's recent comments on Facebook and elsewhere. The deeply anti-Semitic comments and prominent positioning of the Israeli flag imagery as a tool of anti-Semitic identification combine to leave us deeply disturbed. Neither Jews nor the Jewish faith are inherently anti-gun. Aaron Zelman, founder of Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership was far from anti-gun. While many leaders of the gun prohibition movement are Jewish there are also many leaders of the right to keep and bear arms movement that are also in fact, Jewish. While Nugent has long been known for outrageous and offensive statements, these latest comments place Nugent clearly over the line."

[Mr. Mojo]

The Israeli flag does not belong there

Yup, that was Ted's big mistake. And the subtitle under Bloomberg suggesting that Israel was somehow responsible for 9/11 and that Blommie was an Israeli agent. Real brain-dead material.

[Ransomed]

What does Nugent think the mayor of ‘Jew York city being a ‘9/11 Israeli agent’ was supposed to mean? I checked out his facebook where he posted it, it is inundated with the mouthbreathers who buy this dog squeeze. Bizarre, I think he posted it without catching it and can’t back down now because he is the Nuge or something.

Bizarre, I think he posted it without catching it

That's what I originally thought too. But if that were the case one would think he'd have distanced himself from at least that part by now. ...unless, as you said, he's too stubborn and arrogant to admit any mistake.

Saying bad things about whites, even all whites, won’t even get you a slap on the wrist, more likely a happy-slap on the back or a high-five. People can make blanket statements about whites all they want, including in the mainstream media, with impunity.

Like all those “white privilege” indoctrinations-I mean “classes” students and employees are required to attend.

Agreed..
