Continuing his cross-country book tour, former FBI Director James Comey railed against the National Rifle Association and disputed claims that he was considering running for political office. According to the Miami Herald, Comey briefly touched on gun rights in the wake of recent mass shooting tragedies, telling readers at a book event in Miami that the NRA "sells fear" to gun owners.
As for specific gun laws that should be put in place to prevent similar shootings like the Parkland, Florida School shooting in February, Comey said he would support "reasonable restrictions" to current laws. He shot down criticism that changing such laws would be a slippery slope.
"It's not a slippery slope, it's a concrete set of stairs built by America's founders," he said. "Let's have these conversations standing there, holding the rails."
As for making his way back to Washington and running for political office, he told supporters that he'd make a "crappy candidate," pointing to his disdain for political fundraising.
"I hate the idea of asking people for money," he told the crowd.

Laws do not “prevent” crimes, you jerk.
The law abiding do not commit crimes as a matter of course, Mr. Liar, but I expect you know nothing about that.
Sessions is doing a great job.

Whut? Is Comey channeling Hillary? Where does he come up with this odd wording?
“As for making his way back to Washington and running for political office, he told supporters that he’d make a “crappy candidate””
It appears he has done a crappy job at all the other jobs he has had, why would that one be any different?
A message for uber hypocrite Comey:
Matthew 7:3- Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brothers eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?”
Comey is a mega-weasel.
Bush was a RINO.
How many Saudis were permitted to leave the country while it was in no-fly status?
“Islam is peace.”
What an ass.
The ONLY people selling fear are the Anti Gun Jihad who push their emotion based infantile irrational fear of guns as the justification for full scale legal infringement on 2nd Amendment rights.
So the inept FBI head that knew about the Parkland shooter (and many more school shooters) while he ran the show and 'his' FBI did nothing. Thinks he would support more gun law restrictions instead of law enforcement actually doing their jobs when these shooters are reported before they kill. Makes sense, if you're a brain damaged leftie.
This guy would have been way way better off if he had just done his job ostensibly enforcing the law, which it has become abundantly clear he never did nor ever really cared about.
Finally, we agree.
There’s a reason why the BCSD responded the way they did and what happened at the M.S Douglas has not been exposed. And that includes DOJ policies and grants given to them by the DOJ.
I do add that while the media drive against guns and the NRA was going on which could have been answered by exposing the policy failures. Was during several primary elections . And that refusal resulted in driving turnout.
MSM HAS BEEN USING A HOGG TO LEAD THE SHEEPLE* FOR THE SHEARING* OF THE 2ND AMENDMENT WOULD END IF THIS HAPPENED
It seems there was an effort by some members of the Florida state legislature urging Floridas governor Scott to relieve the Broward county sheriff which went rebuffed and unreported. But the reaction by the BCSD Broward County Sjeriff’s Department was only symptomatic of the policy failures installed at the M S Douglas HS that allowed those murders to occur.
If Scott had done so.The focus would have been on the so called Promise Policies enacted by the Marjory S Douglas school board supported by the previous Obama administration. It would have exposed the mind set of excessive permissiveness toward correction of any violation requiring disciplinary action.like : Drug use and sales , lockers ,cars broken into or stolen. Likewise, books and ,bikes. Not to mention student vs student and student vs teacher altercations. Creating what was hardly an idyllic scholastic setting let alone offer student security. Add to that the lowering of scholastic standards. All going lightly dealt with or given glowing fabricated results.and richly rewarded by the previous administrations “She=he=it” movement through DOJ grants..
Because of this the focus was not directed at policy failure’s cause and effect. . But against guns and the NRA.Thus allowing the conditions which existed that permitted such lax security and the murders to occur go blameless which reduces the schools legal culpability.

You can bet your booties that he’s carrying.
Comey proves why Americans need the second amendment to balance a government with a DOJ and FBI weaponized against the People.
It’s ludicrous to watch the supercillious Comey slap the NRA for anything. Perhaps we all will be lucky to get to see Comey bite his own bullet.
The second amendment is essential, regardless of how many criminals and insane people play shoot-’em up massacres.The People must not be ruled by those who are insane.
Thank you Comey for proving our case by your own actions and words.
Hey James!!!
Your TYRANNICAL BEHAVIOR is “creating the fear” among the citizenry!!!!!!
The projection in this one is strong.
Seems to me the NRA is selling safety, confidence and freedom. While the other side is the one selling fear and enslavement.
