Mika on Church Shootings: 'Inane' To Think Armed Citizen Can Make a Difference

Don't confuse Mika Brzezinski with the facts. She's anti-gun and is not about to let some stunning counter-evidence change her mind.

If ever there was an illustration of how an armed citizen can make a difference, it is the case of Jeanne Assam, the brave woman who took out the killer at the New Life Church in Colorado Springs. And yet . . .

On today's Morning Joe, Mika -- in newsreader mode -- dutifully reported the incident. But when Joe Scarborough sought to draw the obvious implication, Mika put her anti-gun foot down.

To quote Larry Elder: "Facts to a liberal are like Kryptonite to Superman."

Mika Brzezinski is today's example of the all-too-common brainwashed sheep. Disgusting.

Exactly. Outstanding. Thanks for posting.

This thread is small counterpoint to mainstream propaganda. Thanks to all contributors to this thread.

“So, what or who is it Mika is trying to protect?”

She is protecting her religiously held world view. To accept the obvious proof that her view is flawed would be like learning that whales live in trees. It would turn her belief system upside down and cause her to doubt all that she KNOWS to be true.

These people can not really be this stupid.

Unfortunately, they can be and frequently are every bit that stupid. Scary, isn't it?

It gets even worse. Go to the MSNBC.com web site. There is NO headline about the killing of the jerk in Colorado Springs. However one of the top stories is about an UNARMED HERO in Arvada who shouted at the killer. So I guess all we have to do is just shout insults at killers and we are safe.

I will be very glad when MSNBC finally folds.

She probably does think whales (at least some of them) live in trees.

[Jeff Head]

Amen bro. See my post number 7.

[subterfuge]

These people can not really be this stupid. It has to be a put on.

It IS a put on. They know what they're doing. But they are that stupid too.

[SoldierDad]

Gee, I thought all T.V. reporters were suppose to be neutral and just report the facts!!! No suggesting of having a slanted opinion on this story, huh Mika?

[Jeff Head]

Top of the morning to you.

The obvious facts of this story and the heroic acts of this young woman should be the major headlines all across the land:

HEROINE SHOOTS KILLER DEAD, SAVES COUNTLESS LIVES AT CHURCH SAYING HER "FOOTSTEPS GUIDED BY GOD"

[Ann Archy]

Her father is just as CLUELESS!

[Mo1]

Maybe this is why Mika is upset. Hundreds didn't die....Mika would, I suppose prefer the story of hundreds dead rather than a story of a Hero who protected.

That sums it up

[Vaquero]

So I guess all we have to do is just shout insults at killers and we are safe.

Exactly. Her biggest fear is that the little people will be able to take care of themselves. Our independence lessens her influence.

[purpleraine]

Can people be that wrong or just stupid? MSNBC must lobotimize their employees.

Saw Joe taking on the lefty Schuster this morning. He was really getting under Schuster’s skin.
