Esquire Editor Wants to Ban All Guns
newsbusters.org ^ | 5/20/2018 | P.J. Gladnick

Liberals always seem to be declaring they only want bans or restrictions on certain types of guns. Added to that is their declaration of support for the Second Amendment. However, once in a while, one of those liberals lets their mask drop and makes their true intention known.

Such a person is the editor-at-large Dave Holmes of Esquire magazine who flat out declared in the wake of the school shootings in Texas on Friday that he wants to ban all guns. Here is Holmes saying what most other liberals are careful to keep under wraps in Okay, Now I Actually Do Want To Take Your Guns.

Hey there, NRA:

Listen, I know the moments after a gunman opens fire in a school are hectic for you. You have to get your talking points together, you have to mentally prepare to debate a traumatized yet sensible child, you have to look at yourself in the mirror and practice saying that more guns would have made the situation less deadly. It’s a busy time! And since we are always either in the moments after or the moments before a mass shooting, you’re pretty much always busy, I have noticed!

Anyway, I just wanted to drop you a line and let you know that I now actually do want to take your guns.

All of your guns.

Right now.

How refreshing huh? At last some honesty from the anti-constitutionalists radical left wing extremists just say no the the BOR assclowns. Hey dave holmes, I want you to know I actually do want you to STFU but since it's your "right" to spew your garbage I guess I won't be getting my "wants" and neither will you.

There’s so many guns that it would be a matter of only banning LEGAL guns. Get ready to pay protection money to both gangs and cops if that happens.

Too bad “Dave Holmes” wasn’t present when the Constitution was drafted.

Bring it by my house, David. I’ll provide the address.

Pack a lunch. It’ll be a long day.

Or not.

Why don’t we just uninvent fire? That will solve a lot of problems too.

Well, he’s obviously much much smarterer than them old white guys. Average age for the founders was 43.8 yrs just in case anyone was wondering.

“nobody wants to take your guns away, nobody.”
- aspiring gun grabbers just waiting for someone to take your guns away.

So, another common denominator in the school shooting is-——schools. Easy peasey, shut down all the schools/indoc centers.

Turns out Esquire editor Dave Holmes is a hysterical queen (open homosexual).

Sure, Dave. Grand idea. That will stop people from committing murder. Spontaneous rainbows will pop out and Unicorns will emerge from hiding. The days will all be sunny and the climate will stabilize to 73 degrees around the globe. ISIS will begin dancing with Mossad and everyone will give a Coca-Cola to each other.

I want David Holmes to swing from the tallest tree in Central Park.

That’s not going to happen, either.

The reason we need the Second Amendment is to protect ourselves from the fascist aholes who think like David Holmes.

Then do not allow any security at your magazine headquarters to carry firearms - this IS a free country no one can make you carry a gun.

Another fashion magazine turned political commie rag. I’m sure they’ll be out of circulation soon enough.
