More Bang for the Buckhorn


I am altering the deal. Pray I don't alter it any further.
At a time when journalists are under fire both literally and figuratively, Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn’s “joke” this week at a military conference about pointing twin 50 caliber machine guns at journalists and watching them “cry like little girls” rankled several reporters in the room. [More]
That would be Hillary supporter Bob Buckhorn. You know, the guy who will "stand with [Muslims] forever"...? A.K.A. "Buy-Back" Bob...?

Hey, what happened to "common sense" gun safety and Cooper's rule to "NEVER LET THE MUZZLE COVER ANYTHING YOU ARE NOT PREPARED TO DESTROY"...?

Need you ask?
In Tampa, Mayor Bob Buckhorn said he "fully" supports President Barack Obama's proposals to pass a new ban on assault weapons, limit ammunition magazines to 10 rounds, require background checks for virtually all gun sales and further limit armor-piercing bullets.
Dammit, Bob, you're not supposed to show your cards to the useful idiots this early in the game.

Fortunately, term-limited Tampa Mayor Buckhorn announced that he would not be running for Governor in 2018:

Florida requires a license to carry weapons. Florida prohibits open carry of firearms with a few exceptions such as fishing. In 2015, while Buckhorn was Mayor of Tampa, a Tampa Police Department officer threatened to arrest a man for openly carrying a firearm while fishing at a public pier, detaining him for more than an hour and conducted illegal searches of him, his cell phone and his vehicle before issuing a trespass warning to him effective for one year:
