You just knew that this was coming. Completely ignoring the the fact that the man who slaughtered 50 people at a gay nightclub was a Muslim extremist the Democrats are calling for stricter gun laws. It was Crazy Bernie who kicked it off during an interview on Press the Meat Meet the Press on Sunday morning. He was followed by Dear Leader who failed to mention radical Islam in his presser but also advocated for restrictions on gun ownership. Now the rank and file are chiming in true adherence to the Rahm Emanuel maxim of never letting a good crisis “go to waste”.
The Hill reports “Durbin calls for Congress to pass gun control laws”:
Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) on Sunday called on Congress to pass new gun control laws following the Orlando, Fla., shooting that left 50 people dead and 53 more injured.
If Congress does not act, Durbin said it would be “complicit in the next killing.”
“We have the power to act, and we must,” Durbin, the second-ranked Democrat in the Senate, said, according to Reuters.
“The bottom line is that we allow dangerous people to buy guns in America and that has got to change. In the coming days, Congress must take a stand against hate, terrorism, and this horrific gun violence.”
Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo of New York called the attack a “horrific reminder” for lawmakers about the need for more strict gun control legislation.
“It is far past time for Washington to act,” he said in a statement, according to The New York Times.
It’s what the Democrats and liberals are all about – the exact wrong solution for a given problem. Durbin is a career politician of the worst type and an ardent supporter of the now Chicago Mayor Emanuel. The other Second Amendment hater who is quoted – New York Governor Andrew Cuomo – is a fascist of the highest order and will undoubtedly be on the short list for a highly influential position in a Hillary Clinton regime, maybe even a cabinet spot. Perhaps he can head up a new DHS agency that can be created, something along the lines of the Ministry of Gun Grabbing.
The swiftness that the Dems exercised in exploiting the tragedy in Orlando is evidence of the raw cynicism that runs throughout the party like the molecular acid coursing through the veins of the Xenomorph in the Alien movie franchise. They are rotten to the very core and if there is to be any chance to salvage what remains of America they must be routed come November.
