Dem mayor rips Second Amendment, says only the police should have guns

Standing outside the hospital where the two police officers were treated for gunshot injuries, Kenney told a group of reporters that only police officers should be allowed to own guns...

"I’m concerned every single day," the mayor said just after midnight Tuesday morning, alongside Philadelphia Police Commissioner Danielle Outlaw.

The mayor said he recently visited Canada and remarked that gun violence did not once cross his mind.

"I was in Canada two weeks ago and never thought about a gun," he said. "The only people I knew who had guns in Canada were police officers."

"That's the way it should be here,"

Kenney also suggested he would unilaterally strip citizens of the right to own firearms — if he had the authority to do so.

He also believes criminals should have guns. He makes no effort to remove them from the perpetrators of gun crime. Only law abiding citizens who wish to protect their families should be refused guns.

And the democrats all voted for this jerk. This man has no sense. I am 79 years old. I have lived with guns around me all my life and have hurt no one. One kook shoots up a crowd of people and Mayor Kenney wants to take all the guns from normal every-day people and do away with the 2nd Amendment. I have yet to hear him talk against the pig who does the shooting, only the guns. There are millions of gun owners here in this country. And a few slobs who misuse guns and shoot people. Why isn’t he going after them?

***..that only police officers should be allowed to own guns... ***

Same spew as fifty five years ago. “If only US Officers had guns, US officers would not get shot!”

Would love to know if the mayor had a security detail in Canada.

Same mayor probably said “defund the police” at some point recently.

We do have a personal security detail...

Mr. Colt, Mr. Smith & Wesson, Mrs. Sturm Ruger, Mr. Remington and Mr. Henry. They are great security detail, never ask for time off or pay...

I saw a movie like that once where only the police and military had guns. It was called “Shindlers list”
