Brzezinski Attacks First and Second Amendments Simultaneously
newsbusters.org ^ | 3/15/2018 | Bill D'Agostino

Posted on 03/15/2018 11:26:20 AM PDT by rktman

On Thursday, MSNBC’s Morning Joe co-host Mika Brzezinski managed to dismiss both the First and Second Amendment in the same sentence when she opined that the NRA “should be sued, and forced to take down” what she described as “inflammatory ads.”

Brzezinski voiced this startling opinion at the tail-end of her three hour show. In the final segment of the morning, an image of a recent NRA tweet featuring a photo of a firearm appeared onscreen, which read, “I’ll control my own guns, thank you.” Brzezinski responded: “The NRA, with their inflammatory ads, and threatening ads, should be sued and forced to take them down.”

Her remarks are the latest in a pattern of increasingly aggressive anti-gun rhetoric that she and her co-host Joe Scarborough have espoused since the horrific Parkland, Florida shooting last month. Brzezinski’s disregard for the right to bear arms appears to have bled into her reading of other constitutionally guaranteed freedoms, such as free speech.

In a particularly absurd twist of irony, Brzezinski made these comments less than one week after her fiancee and co-host spoke at the RTDNF’s First Amendment Awards, where he complained that the President was challenging “constitutional norms.” If Mr. Scarborough is interested in calling out those who speak against constitutional rights, he need only look to the person seated next to him on his weekday show.

What’s even MORE absurd is she has an audience that thinks she’s brilliant.

That is more disturbing than her being a vapid, vacuous little twit with a microphone.

Mornings with the Captain when I was a kid were (without saying) more thoughtful, worthy affair than the slop from Mika and Joe these days.

Correction... it’s pronounced Snarlbore, not scarborough.

As for Mika, she was evidently raised to define a Marx Zombie. It’s starting to show, now that she has established herself and “knows her value”.

If it differs from her opinion and she wants it to be attacked, she finger-points, says “inflammatory!” and wants ads to be taken down forcibly.

Yet she thinks it’s not inflammatory to incite her desired changes to the Constitution completely outside and in violation of the Constitution’s well-defined, required process for change.

These lawless people should never be allowed to have the reins of power in America.

Actually, I think this woman is an insult to all the other “dumb Pollacks” in the world.

I wished she were in a class of her own, but sadly she isn’t.

Just running the Democratic playbook - find a boogeyman and throw all your attention at that, while ignoring the real truth...has always worked in the past.

“”her three hour show””

Is that show really on for three house? Unbelievable. Why don’t they just join all the kooks from The View and this show into one show? They’d get the same viewers so why not?
