In a closing commentary on Wednesday, Hardball's Chris Matthews ranted that opposing gun control could lead to the assassination of a future American president or politician. Matthews fumed that he supports new restrictions because "the next mass shooter could well emerge out of this pack" of the "politically nutty."
He lobbied, "Check the shooters of John F. Kennedy and Jerry Ford, who got out twice. Look at the men that shot Bobby Kennedy and Martin Luther King and Malcolm X and George Wallace. They all had political motives and they all had guns." In the very next sentence, Matthews sneered, "And if you're not against this movement, you're with it."
The liberal MSNBC anchor closed by urging his followers to fight for gun control: "Write your congressman and say what you think and what you feel. Do it tonight before you go to bed."

chris matthews...talk about the politically nutty. Where could you find a better example of the politically ‘nutty’ than on msnbc? Where could you find less logic and more insanity except maybe in congress and replete throughout this entire administration? Where could you find a more dangerous compilation of absolute whackos than on the left?
I’ll keep my imaginary guns snd they can keep their imaginary logic for why I shouldn’t, thank you.
Remember “assassin’s wanted”
Plenty of anarchists and communists on the assassin list.
Ceausescu.
There are also plenty of examples of presidents (non-US) and similar heads of state being assassinated, in a country that bans private possession of firearms.
Needless to say, Matthews is a foaming-at-the-mouth idiot, and no sensible person takes his remarks seriously.
er...oh never mind. no comment.
“Check the shooters of John F. Kennedy and Jerry Ford, who got out twice. Look at the men that shot Bobby Kennedy and Martin Luther King and Malcolm X and George Wallace. They all had political motives and they all had guns.”
Off the top of my head none of the shooters used an “assault rifle” and all would have likely made it through the new background check (no prior felony or mental incarceration)...except the Fruit of Islam brothers who nailed X with a shotgun and pistol, IIRC, and who probably had long felony rap sheets.
The liberals have no valid arguments so they play on the emotions of the american people and use the fear card.
They are all coming unglued.
How very odd that chrissy failed to mention that except for the Kennedys, all the assassinated and attempted assassinations targeted republicans...including mlk. Bobby Kennedy was done in by a jihadist before most people knew what a jihadist was. Can’t bring that up. And who knows who killed jfk?
The guns used to shoot (or shoot at in the case of Pres. Ford) were handguns, a shotgun, a bolt action rifle and a pump action rifle. Go ahead and say it, Chrissie, you want all guns banned.
Of the assassinations he listed, how many of the weapons used would have been affected in the new ban?
Well when your ratings are in the dumper just come up with something stupid to say.
I think the Left is getting upset that their obviously intentional provocations of the Right have not resulted in a very big incident. They will probably get that incident when they try to confiscate the first guns.
“Matthews sneered, “And if you’re not against this movement, you’re with it.””
Alright, Matthews...When I make my decision, you’ll be the first to know.
Leftists never get tired of looking stupid. They’re actually proud of their stupidity.
all i can say is this:
Chrissy, the secret service takes threats like yours very, very seriously.
That’s just another “resume enhancement” for Prissy-Chrissy on Commie-Cast’s HR Books, IINM. He gets paid BIG in booze and cash, bigtime, for bigtime dumbass remarks like those. His “resume” is prodigious, by now, bedecked with little gold stars.
Oh bring it on, you dipsomaniacal poofta
The left is stuck on material things. Wealth and inanimate objects take on a moral quality.
Here is a clue for the libtards; a gun won’t hurt anyone outside accident without evil intent, and a Marine with just his bare hands is a lethal weapon. But then that is why we call them libtards.
If BRAINS were dynamite, Prissie Chrissie wouldn’t have sufficient power to blow his nose.
