Liberals always say they dont want to take away guns. But give them an awful tragedy like the Newtown, Conn. shooting and they get bolder and more honest. MSNBC host Ed Schultz showed a rare bout of such honesty during a brief Twitter exchange Saturday. Schultz asked Why should anyone own an assault rifle ? and followed it up by saying it's the confiscation of these types of weapons that counts and will have an impact.
The Ed Show host wasnt done his attack on gun rights. The NRA needs to state the case why assault weapons are needed by anyone, he claimed. And after that, he told one poster that a Glock pistol qualifies as an assault weapon. That last bit is surely a surprise to both gun owners and Congress which didnt include handguns in its previous assault weapons ban.
> The NRA Needs To State The Case Why Assault Weapons Are Needed By Anyone,... <
I don’t know how the NRA would answer this but my reasons are: Obama - Biden - Holder - the gutless wonders of Congress - the dementia farts of the Supreme Court - the lust of the powerful and malicious who make laws that govern and shackle us - and my NEED to live as a FREE MAN!
Well I would like to nominate drunk ed as the chief confiscator assigned to taking them from the biker gangs, crips & bloods and other notorious gangs across this great land who won’t even laugh at him as they carve their initials across his large @ss.
Maybe then he will under stand why citizens want them. These people and more like them will be coming for our wives and daughters, our food stocks and water if the dollar collapses.
Why? Do the automobile manufacturers need to state why 600+ HP vehicles are needed by anyone? I'm your biggest nightmare Ed, I like and own SUVs, pickup trucks, ATVs, muscle cars, motorhomes and firearms.

Because it would be difficult to fight a counter revolution to overthrow the Kenyan’s communist regime with 22s.
To protect ourselves from idiots like Special Ed......
Exactly.
I saw one write-up that said “...a high-caliber, .223 automatic machine gun...”
Who writes this ignorant drivel?

Exactly right on all counts: the shotgun, the media, and -—
The complete lack of care, $, facilities, provisions, understanding of, discussion of the Mentally Ill.
I’ve also heard the mediots authoritatively declare that semiautomatic weapons can’t be used for hunting.
She mistakenly reached for the last pork chop.
Who really cares if it was a .22 pistol or rifle..or a 38 special revolver?
A semi-auto rifle in .243, 270, 25-06, 223, 30-06, 22-250, 7mm, 308, etc.....
The victims are dead. And the liberals want to ban guns.
Explosive's next..? Airplanes into schools? Gas? Fire?
Yet they don't want to accept reality. They DID NOT DO ALL they could to protect those kids. Schools are PART of government. I thought government protected us????
GOVERNMENT...DID NOT PROTECT THEM!!
Most of the Sheeple are stupid.
That is a POWERFUL 11 minutes right there. Thanks for posting that video. The most damning info comes at the 7:35 mark and on about the school shooters and their addictions.
They know why there is a 2nd Amendment.
the lust of the powerful and malicious who make laws that govern and shackle us - and my NEED to live as a FREE MAN!
And you answered the question.
Before we ignore this as just the ranting of a liberal gun-grabber, let’s look at a couple of facts.
Recently, zero wanted Congress to authorize the American military with the power to arrest American citizens on American soil. The DBM tossed this one off as just adding more protection against terrorists. Uh-huh.
Now we have Sandy Hook and leftists screaming for gun control to a president who has already demonstrated his disdain for both the Constitution and the rule of law and promised to take action to keep incidents like Sandy Hook from recurring.
Put the two together and, Voila!, we have American military with a list of ALL the mandatory federally registered guns in America knocking on your door to collect your guns.
Think it can’t happen? You better think again.
I have 2 things to say to this fat, drunken wife-beater:
1) The government cannot promise safety in prisons, where the inmates can be and are strip-searched, where there are metal detectors, regular friskings and severe restrictions on who can come in and what they may carry. Yet stabbings and even shootings occur on a regular basis. So how, exactly, are you going to assure that 300 million guns are taken away from 90 million or so free citizens (who have access to the Internet, books, copying machines, metals and all sorts of metal-working tools and machinery) without making it WORSE outside of prison than inside of it?
2) MOLON LABE! Come and take them...YOU, YOURSELF - don’t send someone else’s kid, display some conviction behind your big words and do it YOURSELF. Let’s see if you get past the 2nd or 3rd house without being carried away in a meat wagon.

In short, F U, you brainless, gutless, drunken, wife-beater.
Easy question to answer, Speshul Ed. I own an 'assault rifle' to keep anyone from confiscating my other guns.
“...he killed himself in the school when he heard police sirens. If that is true, it is extremely unlikely that he did the killings, went back to his car to deposit the rifle and then returned back into the school.”
There were TWO rifles. He took one into the school along with two handguns. He killed the kids and adults with that rifle. Then, heard the cops and shot himself in the head with one of the handguns.
The sheriff said there was still ONE RIFLE in the car, so there were TWO RIFLES - one he used and one he left in car.
Like always, the Dems are going to overreach on this. It will be the thing that keeps them from taking the House in ‘14.
