I like guns. I come from a gun family. I am a 2nd Amendment, pro-gun liberal--which makes me a very lonely creature when the subject comes up in casual conversation around the office.Why do I smell a big "but" nearby?
Their big gun--and the most overtly political weapon in the film--—appears to be a Barrett .50-caliber M107 semiautomatic rifle, a 32-pound, 5-foot-long military sniper rifle that was banned in California starting last year, for the altogether sensible reason that it can bring down airliners.Oh, that's why.
As I said, I'm pretty pro-gun, but I would never belong to the NRA because, well, those guys are lunatics. One of their more far-fetched paranoid fantasies (here comes the e-mail!) is that the United Nations is conspiring to take away America's guns.And we know there's never been any credible evidence of that...
Congratulations, Dan Neil. Thanks to transparent sterile queen bees like you, people are getting wise to agenda-driven deception by the dinosaur media. And your--what spin do you guys use?--oh, yeah, "flagging revenues" reflect it.
"I am a 2nd Amendment, pro-gun liberal"
ReplyDeleteSo what the hell does the phrase, "2nd Amendment" mean in this statement? Obviously he doesn't think it means that the right to keep and bear arms should not be infringed. Maybe he's one of those guys who thinks it protects "our right to hunt".
Beginning to believe that the advent of these new 'Pro-Gun' liberals coming out of the closet. Is just another ploy to show themselves as 'good guys', (not to be confused w/'Gun Guys' - obvious enemy shrills). But they will always compromise, especially other peoples freedoms. This is due to their own inordinate fear.
ReplyDeleteThey are as rattlesnakes seeking warmth. They'll snuggle up to you for their own benfit, and then turn on and bite you in a millisecond if you move.
