Liberal filmmaker Michael Moore is calling for the Second Amendment to be repealed and sharing his theory for how to successfully remove "nearly every gun from civilian ownership."
"We need to start a movement to repeal the Second Amendment and replace it with something that says it’s not about the right of somebody to own a gun, it’s the right of all of us to be protected from gun violence," Moore said Friday on his podcast.
"We have a right to live," he said. "If you’re afraid of somebody breaking in, get a dog… you don't need a gun."
Moore began the latest installment of his "Rumble" podcast by reminding listeners that he appeared on MSNBC and urged the media to call for an end to the Second Amendment the night of the mass school shooting in Uvalde, Texas. He said he stayed away from speaking out after mass shootings for a decade because his 2002 documentary "Bowling for Columbine" made him everyone’s go-to voice to speak out after school shootings, and he didn’t want such appearances to become the new normal.
He decided to join MSNBC following the Uvalde massacre because "making a film that I thought would end this didn’t work" and staying off TV wasn’t forcing change, either.
"I thought, I have to be completely honest with people, and so I said it, I said something that I know the Democratic Party leaders and others don’t want, they don’t want this said, but I believe a majority of Americans are thinking it, a lot of people are afraid to say it. I’m going to say it," Moore said. "I said it that night, live on television."

We need to start a movement to limit obesity. You don’t have the right to eat 10 big macs for breakfast Moore, get a yogurt!
It’s not that I need a gun its my right to have one, or two, or three if I choose. STFU Marxist!
no second amendment
no first amendment
no freedom
no difference of opinion
no rights at all
Once the Second Amendment is gone, this nation will never
come back, and if you think it’s already there, you need
to think about how much worse it could get in a hurry.
I give him credit for at least recognizing that the only way the Left gets what it wants is to amend the Constitution. That’s not going to happen, of course. But it is the only proper way for them to get the change they seek.
The rest of the Left seems to be in La-La land where they get to wave the magic wand and pass laws to make the bad guns go away.
FACT: Guns prevent an estimated 2.5 million crimes a year or 6,849 every day. 98+% of the time the gun is not fired and no blood (including the criminal’s) is shed.

Michael Moore telling us whether the US Constitution applies to citizen-taxpayers. That is funny.
Why does he get to decide? Oh? He doesn’t. But I bet he hires private security.
My firearms are as important to me as cream puffs are to Fat Boy.
When did Moore convince criminals to give up their guns?????
Moore doesn’t need a third helping of pie. But that doesn’t stop him.
As I’ve said before - if the anti-2A people are too gutless to introduce a repeal amendment themselves, let’s do it for them.
Let Congress, both Houses, vote on a repeal amendment. And if it passes, by all means, send it to the States.
Right now, they are nibbling at it by pieces. Let’s get them all on the record, let’s demonstrate repeal is impossible in the most straightforward way - by voting on it - and then be done with it.
If I don’t need a gun for protection from wild animals, then you don’t need food. I’m not sacrificing my dog to a bear, fatass.
If only we could combine a bullet with a laxative and get munitions that only affect progressives who are so full of crap.
He’s an innocent victim of the donut-virus.
And you don’t need a supersized Whopper.

He didn't pull the triggers but the blood is on his hands!
