Yep, thanks for proven me right. I'm amused that you interpret calls for honesty and reasonableness from you loons as a physical threat. Shows how close to the top your violence resides.

Shameful: Journalists Immediately Politicize Congressional Shooting With Gun Control Calls
By Scott Whitlock |
June 14, 2017 10:25 AM EDT

Minutes after Representative Steve Scalise and several congressional aides on Wednesday were shot while practicing for a baseball game, journalists on MSNBC and Twitter immediately politicized the attempted massacre, offering calls for gun control.

Although MSNBC anchor Stephanie Ruhle admitted “we don’t know what type of gun” was used, she speculated, “How difficult is it to get a weapon like this?” MSNBC security expert Clint Watts replied, “It's not difficult at all.... We have very loose gun laws around rifles, semiautomatic rifles, whatever it might be.”

Atlantic editor David Frum went on a Tweet storm, lashing out about the Second Amendment-friendly Virginia:

Image

He then mocked those who would offer prayers:

Image

Univision anchor Jorge Ramos offered a sarcastic, snarky call for gun control:

Image

Ramos, it should be pointed out, has called for repealing the Second Amendment. So his motives are more than a little suspect.

New Republic writer Malcolm Harris appeared to celebrated the attempted mass murder of Republicans:

Image

(The journalist is also an Occupy Wall Street protester who was arrested in 2012.)

Hayley MacMillen, the editor of Allure magazine whined about not being able to call for gun control minutes after an attempted shooting:

Image

Apparently, it’s never too soon for liberal journalists to politicize a tragedy.

A transcript of the MSNBC exchange is below:

STEPHANIE RUHLE: Clint, I want to talk about — and again, we don't know what type of gun that was used — but given the amount of shots that were fired, we have heard a rifle, possibly a semiautomatic. How difficult is it to get a weapon like this?

CLINT WATTS: It's not difficult at all. Depending on what state you're based in, there's slightly different rules in terms of gun ownership. But you can acquire one, you know, within a day sometimes or even two to three days if there are some restrictions out there. So it's not difficult to acquire or move these weapons. Nor is it get the ammunition for it. We have very loose gun laws around rifles, semiautomatic rifles, whatever it might be. And when we look at this in the end, I think what it will ultimately come down to is we did have a really quick response. The Capitol Hill police sounds like were critical in ending the situation.

And of course Frum is completely wrong on his bullet points. But the alt-left will retweet and pass them around and soon it will be progressive alternative fact.

According to Hodgkinson’s Facebook page, he is a member of numerous left-leaning online groups, including The Road To Hell Is Paved With Republicans; Rachel Maddow For President 2020; Sanders For President 2020; Terminate The Republican Party; and Donald Trump is not my President.

For a good time engage AG on any topic related to acceptance of other religions like Judaism, Catholicism, or Islam. That similarity would crumble pretty quickly.

The appalling response from the left removes all doubt that the Trump outrage is anything less than a coup on their part. They are doing everything they can to remove him and will ratchet up their attacks as more conventional means (see: Comey testimony, Sessions testimony, etc.) fail.
