Bill Maher on Gun Lobby
NBC Tonight Show with Jay Leno ^

Posted on 01/11/2011 10:11:03 PM PST by matt04

This is not the entire segment, but he sure shows his contempt for your average American with his "I'm tired of hearing about the Constitution and 2nd Amendment" rant.

A quick summary until the full segment is available:

He says we need to ask the NRA on why this shouldn’t stop anything they want to do, says NRA should change their name to the “Assassins Lobby.” Says audience should applaud that “joke.”

Says he is tired about hearing about the 2nd Amendment and the Constitution. I’s just a vice, it’s not good for you or anyone else. Jokes about Palin.

Complains we love guns, just a very armed country, with a lot of crazy people. Says it is our “fantasy a**f**k” to be able to stop someone.

Demands Dems reclaim gun issue. Right wing thinks it would be fun to kill the people you disagree with. Gets pissed audience doesn’t agree with him on that.

Right wingers are irrational and armed to begin with. Asks who goes to gun shows? Who was for the war in Iraq?

Dems need to reclaim Patriotism. Say it is patriotic…to pay taxes, wanting health care for every American, supporting our troops (by getting them out of these pointless stalemates) and stopping people from carrying assault rifles in public.

I wonder if he has a body guard and if so if they are packing. Like Rosie she is against guns but her body guards carry them to protect her because as we all know she is more important than the rest of us or at least in her mind she is.

Bill Maher, like all libs, would be much more happier if the criminals (like this guy) could operate freely and without fear in a world where the law abiding are disarmed.

But Bill however himself would either carry or have security who did.

“he sure shows his contempt for your average American with his “I’m tired of hearing about the Constitution and 2nd Amendment” rant.”


Can’t you tell? This is the essence of this guy.

He has great contempt for all the rest of us, he sneers at us and looks down on us.

This is what his world consists of.

Where he operates, most act just like this -—

(While he himself is so contemptible ...)

Meet your new overlords ...

Maher never bothers with the facts if it doesn’t fit into his fantasy world.

“I never watch the silly little jerk.”

Every time I walk into a room and his snarky face is on the tube I will say to whoever is in the room “can someone please get that jerk off. And change the channel.”

Well thanks for that, but who gives a rats ass what he thinks about anything.

He ought to do something useful, like haunting a house.

Here is a statement from one who has a lot more right than Mr. Maher to state opinions on this subject. A survivor of the Virginia Tech massacre that killed close to 30 people:

Matthews would have been comfortable being a Brown Shirt in Nazi Germany.

Is Maher even aware that Giffords is a strong supporter of the 2nd amendment? And bragged about it on her website?

It’s funny he went after Newt for comparing Obama to the Nazis and Soviets and the enemy.

It was actually Pres Obama who used the word enemies in reference to Republicans and called on his hispanic supporters to punish them.

It was actually Sen Durbin, #2 in the Dem Sen leadership who compared the US military to the Nazis, the Soviets, and Khmer Rouge

Did he miss all the Bush=Hitler signs at the anti-war rallies? There’ve been plenty of Palin=Hitler signs as well.

He’s had Al Sharpton on his show many times. Has he ever said anything about the Rev inciting progroms in New York? Whipping up anti-white sentiment with Tawana Brawley?

Has he ever seen the anti G8 protests. Was he aware of all the police needed in Toronto this summer to defend against left wing violence?

Is he aware of the discovery channel hostage taker? The threats against Rep Cantor? The death threats against Gov Palin?

Did Maher have anything to say about that?

Jay should have asked him “Bill, how about calling the American people cowards after 9/11? Was that patriotic?”

Given that “vitriolic political speech” caused this death by firearms, I believe that Maher and the other leftists are targeting the wrong Amendment...

We should not repeal/rescind/reject the 2nd, we should eliminate the 1st. After all, it was free speech that caused this nutjob to use his firearm, right?

Let’s eliminate free speech - especially political speech. I’m sure the leftists would love to support that!

Those are facts and realty. Bill doesn’t live in reality and refuses to acknowledge that that any of his, or Rev. Al’s or any other liberals views are just a fantasy of what they want to be true based on their hatred and stereotypes of others not like them.

Maher was spewing the most hateful comments I've heard in a long time (since I don't watch Sunday shows). He is nothing but a class clown who thinks he's smarter than everyone else. Yet, his lectures and scolding prove he is about as deep as a puddle.

I'm sick of hearing celebrities complain about people with guns and yet their personal security guards are armed.

I guess it's only okay for them to be protected and not us?

Nothing new from this Leftist miscreant.

The mentally deranged Loughner could have carried out his mayhem using a motor vehicle or a bomb. The details of Loughner’s psychoses don’t matter to Maher. Maher’s just another opportunist taking advantage of the Tucson massacre to further his Left-wing agenda.
