...author Salman Rushdie tweeted this morning, “The ‘right to bear arms’ is the real Bane of America.”

“After Columbine I was on Bill Maher’s old show arguing vs NRA’s Ted Nugent about gun control. Lots of Nugents on my timeline today.” and replying and retweeting roughly a dozen of his 340,302 followers comments.

“Individual right to bear arms survived by a 5-4 vote in the Supreme Court (DC v Heller, 2008), powerful dissents. This argument isn’t over.”

Yeah, but he belongs to the elites of this world who have determined, on their own, that they alone deserve to survive.
Who are you? :)
there ya go. thanks for assuming the position of the court fool.
You are not “I see my hands”
what are you doing copying his style?
Perhaps Twitter users can start a new game: Tweet Rushdie’s coordinates
According to Gert Wilders book, he still does.....
At public expense I might add!
@SalmanRushdie right to live revoked by 3-0 vote by Iranian Mullahs, NO dissents. I guess ‘the argument is over’, right Salman?
I don’t recall reading any strong dissents in the Heller decision. The dissenters were either silent, voting with ideology, or made illogical arguments.
That reminds me, what should citizens do regarding gov’t officials who nominate or confirm judges who have no intention of living up to their oath of office (to support the Constitution)? It seems the last two USSC justices have no regard for the Constitution.
Roberts has been totally compromised. Your guns are in danger. Mine aren’t.

Indeed. At this point, if I were King, I'd drop-kick his ass via duct tape and parachute right into the heart of Tehran, into Imanutjob's lap.
Screw him.
No. You're just intellectually lazy.
So, you handle wry sarcasm with name calling? Interesting how quickly you conceded. Hurts to give up your personal integrity, doesn't it?
The gun control idiots don’t realize how many guns there are in people’s possessions and how few mass murders there ever are. Movie theaters are never shot up like this. The 911 terrorists didn’t have any guns. It’s not about the guns.
It’s about evil people. Evil people will use our freedom against us, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t have freedom.
Why? With two candidates and they are both anti-gun. Your buddy Rushdie applauds you.
Bottom line....He approved it with the other 4 knuckleheads. His reasons are mute.
“There is a time for all things, a time to preach and a time to pray, but those times have passed away. There is a time to fight, and that time has now come.” —Peter Muhlenberg (1776)
Is Salman Rushdie an American?
Who cares what he thinks?
