Former "Star Trek" star and gay activist George Takei penned an op-ed for The Daily Beast Tuesday arguing that the First Amendment cannot be protected without limiting the Second, and calling for a "common-sense" ban on firearms "designed for mass slaughter."
Mr. Takei wrote that the LGBT community is grappling with the notion that Sunday’s terrorist attack on the Pulse gay nightclub in Orlando "was inspired by religious fanaticism."

Mr. Takei wrote that the constitutional right for citizens to own, purchase and sell "semi-automatic firearms" conflicts with their right to peaceably assemble "without undue fear of being targeted or killed."

Note to George Takei. It ain’t the NRA you should be worried about. It’s that group that you, the media and Obama are afraid to utter which is your enemy.

The First Amendment is conditional i.e. "Congress shall make no law..."
The Second Amendment is absolute i.e. "...shall not be infringed.">P>Now which can one surmise is prior?

WTF!!?!?!The NRA DIDN'T Mess with the LGBT Community Sulu you asshat!
A Radical Muslim Jihadist Did!
The NRA had NOTHING to do this this!!
Muslims are truly a protected class.
They can kill and maim dozens of LGBT people and no one points the finger that something in their religion might be the problem!!!

So little has changed. There is no knowledge of history, therefore we are doomed to repeat it.

New meaning to the term “WARP(ed) speed mr. sulu.” Assclown doesn’t understand that the NRA and other pro gun groups want the glbtq crowd to arm up to protect themselves. Obviously the “authorities” can’t/won’t. So georgee, sit down and STFU.

Mr. Takei wrote that the LGBT community is grappling with the notion that Sunday’s terrorist attack on the Pulse gay nightclub in Orlando "was inspired by religious fanaticism."
And which religion would it be that engendered the fanaticism, Mr. Takei? Go on; say which one it was that caused its follower to hate gay people enough to commit mass murder against them. Say its name. I dare you.

Always count on the left to take the exact opposite steps necessary to correct a problem.
