Univision Knocks ‘Americans’ Who Buy Guns As Fearing The ‘Apocalypse’
newsbusters.org ^ | 3/20/2020 | Jorge Bonilla

Univision broke from its afternoon coronavirus newscast and delivered on a longstanding policy item: opposition to the Second Amendment and to the private ownership of firearms. But in their coronavirus-themed rant against gun ownership, they also revealed something about themselves.

Watch as Univision’s panel rant about a coronavirus-fueled increase in gun sales, and notice how Chief Medical Correspondent Dr. Juan Rivera otherizes his fellow citizens:

ORGE RAMOS: But as we were saying before going to commercial, something’s going on. Because in the midst of the coronavirus crisis, people’s fears are reflected in different ways.

MARIA ANTONIETA COLLINS: Well yeah, some buy hygiene products, toilet paper. Others are buying...can you believe it? Guns, firearms, ammunition.

RAMOS: The issue is that firearm sales have skyrocketed across the nation. The website animo.com… ammo.com- is reporting that their sales increased by more than 220% over the past three weeks.

COLLINS: But what does that have to do (with anything), right?

RAMOS: Is there some explanation? I know that we’re getting you into things that are beyond your specialty, but…

DR. JUAN RIVERA: I was telling you...I was telling you off-camera that I’ve come to think that the correlation between any natural disaster and buying guns is a direct one. In a hurricane- they buy guns. It’s an earthquake- they buy guns. A pandemic, they buy guns. In other words, I personally can’t see anything particular from the pandemic and buying guns except that every time that something happens, Americans feel that there is going to be an apocalypse.

Down there they don't have to buy guns, because 0bama and Holder already supplied them.

Whoever doesn’t own guns with sufficient ammunition at this point isn’t serious about our 2nd amendment.

The cartels are well-armed and they run their dumpster-fire Mexico...so what’s the issue to offset the threat, somewhat?

They’re entitled to their opinion.

If they can’t figure out why, then they are likely to be the first to fall.

Anyone who doesn't own multiple guns and an enormous amount of ammunition didn't learn a thing from the last two Hitler wannabes (Democrat Presidents that is, Xlinton and 0bama).

Or so I'm told.

Buy guns? You mean to replace those from the canoe accident? We know where the accidents occurred and they were sealed in waterproof...err....stuff.

Semper paratus

No, we are not fearing the apocalypse we are prepared for one if need be. When the mayors and governors of big sh## hole cities decide to let the jail doors open, refuse to protect us and demand the police stand down, we are ready

and yet when the crap hits the fan, all these univision pukes that say this will come cowering and asking for help from those with the means to protect themselves-

Let them mock- they just prove their ignorance by doing so
