MSNBC Guest Draws Parallel Between Gun Owners and Child Molesters
Free Beacon ^ | 1/3/13 | Washington Free Beacon Staff

Posted on 01/03/2013 5:47:26 PM PST by Nachum

Former New York City mayoral candidate Mark Green drew a parallel between gun owners and child molesters Thursday evening on MSNBC. Green suggested that residing near gun owners and residing near child molesters may pose comparable risks, and thus there should be a registry for both:

MARK GREEN: Well it is a neighbor’s interest, even if a law-abiding person has a person, has a permit, has a gun, Adam Lanza stole a gun from his mother who he of course killed. I’m a lawyer and believe in the right to privacy. This is in the public domain. The information is publicly filed. Of course, the newspaper had a right to publish public information. The question is was it right as a matter of judgment for them to do that. If we have a Megan’s Law, and I think everybody might agree, that if you’re a convicted child molester, I think everybody might want to know that because they’re in their home safe, but they may come out. Same thing with guns. There may be people who think the more concealed weapons, the better, fine – live in Texas and Florida.

since libs are for stuff like card check, i think it’s in my best interest to know which of my neighbors vote for libtards. also how much they earn, and whether they pay their fair share or are just moochers.

it comes out of my pocket, it affects the laws i and my family have to live under, therefore using libtard logic, i want this info published.

Is it just me or is this guy bordering on the incoherent?

Looks like some sloppy programming or reading of bullet points with no internal connection between them. He really has no comprehension of what he is saying. Does he even know how many gun owners there are in this country ?

Yep, was born and raised in CA which is now a lib state and was next to impossible to get a CC years ago and still is but no license required to buy hand guns or long guns.

Lived in OR, a gun heavy state and CC is pretty easy to get in many counties, no license required to buy either.

Now live in WA which is controled by libs but CC can be gotten by law abiding citizens, no license required to buy either.

No registration required in any of the three for long guns and none for hand guns that I know of except for initial purchase for background check which is not supposed to be retained.

Ban tanning beds, I think his brain is fried!

He worked with Ralph Nader from 1970–1980, eventually as director of Public Citizen's Congress Watch, and is also the former president of Air America Radio (2007–2009). - owned by his brother, the real estate magnate.

In 1977, Green married Deni Frand, later the director of the New York City office of liberal interest group, People for the American Way and also a senior associate at the Aol-Time Warner Foundation and the Citi Foundation

I hope this asshat lives between the home of a legal gun owner and the home of a child molester...

Let’s see who he worries about more...especially if he has children...

Freaking jack off...

In the Los Angeles School district, Child molesters can be teachers and are protected by the Teachers Union.

If this guy wants all gun owners on a list for everyone to access, this will just encourage gangs to come and break int those homes when the owners are gone and steal the guns. It’s like putting up a christmas list for criminal. Maybe, just maybe, that’s what this guy wants to do, is to create more crime and more killings and death. Libs, creating crime where there is now for 200 years

I would register moronic liberal lawyers for the danger they pose to the public. How many child molesters are back on the streets raping children because of scumbags like Greene?

“They” never talk about that, because ya’ll are so close to Canada...where noncompliance with so-called mandatory registration of weapons became such a popular anti-government movement, that I think “they” finally quit trying, out of fear for their lives.

(I might be wrong on the quit trying part!)

I've found it works out better for society if everyone just assumes everyone else is also packing two or more lethal weapons, at all times.

How about disclosure on a website of the home addresses of anyone who’s ever had one of America’s 50+ million abortions? If a woman is willing to kill her own child, how safe if yours in the neighborhood?

I'll bet that Mark Green (who some say associates with some who are suspected of taking "liberties" with children) would be completely happy with forcing gun owners to wear gold stars on their clothing denoting them as gun owners.

Kind of like the Jews, you know?

OK, I need to rethink concealed carry.

If ccl owners are put on public databases, then maybe, we need to stop concealed carrying and push for open carry.

I mean if it important for the general public to KNOW who has firearms, the lets all embrace open carry and say that politicians in NYC are the reason.

Green claims he is a lawyer. After puking that fallacy of logic anyone who hires him is a fool.
