Democrat Congresswoman Calls Millions Of Americans "Domestic Security Threats"

[HomerThompson]

Holy crap man . . . I guess those clenched fists of truth will protect us . . . because of course we have to resort to violence 100% of the time because we're evil NRA members with guns and stuff.

That transcript didn't back up your words in any way, shape or form . . . but keep twisting them to fit your narrative.

Am I fucking serious.

Now you're not even talking about the tweet, and you're not even defending your bullshit about that being your point of contention. Piss off, and please realize that the video is trying to convey the message exactly as I have described it.

Also, I don't expect people to go shoot up the NY Times now, but I expect delusional Trumpers to go buy more guns and ammo to protect freedom from people with different ideas than theirs.

I thought Americans knew the NRA were unhinged lunatics? This is news?

It's the most powerful civil rights lobby in the US. I don't think they are either unhinged or lunatics. And obviously, I'm far from alone on that issue.

Its incredibly disingenuous of you to refer to the transcript of this video and you know it.

You can't seriously be confused over me offering you a bet. It was as direct as can be. Do you wanna put something where your mouth is or not? Surely an organization with millions of gun nuts will have at least one person answering such an obvious call, right? So let's bet on if there's violence or not. I can't make this any simpler for you.

I'm confused as to why you would offer the bet in the first place. I never made a claim that people are going to storm the NYTs with guns. Plus it's a dumb bet. The NYT is located in Queens and we have strict gun laws here.

You can't say I'm making it up when so many people walk away with the same understanding that I did. That's the part that you guys can't grasp.

Not really. Because we're being treated the same way for so many of us coming away with the same understanding about the stupid tweet.

She is interpreting the tweet the same way that tons of other people are.

LMAO.

The NRA is a civil rights lobby. My understanding is that judging by the amount of members and donations they receive, as well as the influence they have in Washington, that they can reasonably be considered the most powerful.

Which other civil rights lobby would you consider more powerful?

 

[Farmer Br0wn]

Well, you were trying to use Germany's National Healthcare to support your ascertain that Hitler was a socialist, so yeah, it pretty much did contradict what you said.

Not only did Hitler continue it, he expanded it.

But his worst crime of all, was when he weaponized the nationalized Healthcare System against his political opposition.

Honest question, how do you personally arrived at the conclusion that the Nazi party was not socialist?

Oh grow up.

It's blatantly obvious that ads, tweets, etc. get misinterpreted all of the time. If you haven't taken anything I've posted as some sort of defense (whatever I need to defend against to you) you're continuing to misinterpret things.

You clamoring on about people with different ideas than theirs is rich . . .

They're a pro gun lobby, not a civil rights lobby. It's essentially a huge gun industry super PAC.

 

[Cubo de Sangre]

I think you're being a dullard.

Whereas I think you're purposefully misinterpreting fairly standard rhetoric. Most every time I've heard someone giving a speech about "fighting" something I've understood that it doesn't mean literal violence. So what violence are you expecting?

I'm confused as to why you would offer the bet in the first place. I never made a claim that people are going to storm the NYTs with guns. Plus it's a dumb bet. The NYT is located in Queens and we have strict gun laws here.

Can't imagine how you continue to be confused. The bet is being offered because when push comes to shove I don't believe that you believe this was a call to arms. If you don't believe violence will ensue in some capacity then that indicates you're full of shit.

 

[kpt018]

BTW, it's so painfully obvious that the NRA's entire tactic to raise membership and gun sales is to stoke fear in Americans. When Dems are in power it's "they're gonna take your guns!". That no longer applies now it's this culture war with the left.

Only fucking suckers fall for that stuff. I guess it's not enough to teach gun safety, hunting and shooting for sport.

 

[Anung Un Rama]

Not that 50 second ad of Dana saying she wants to fist, erm, fisk the NY times? That's not a security threat, that's just stupid.

The first video is pretty bad. The one where she says "fisk" (not fist), a word that I, and certainly her target audience, never heard of before, is unremarkable.

 

[Jack V Savage]

LMAO.

Don't gov't officials have a civil right not to be criticized?

Seriously, if the NRA was actually just about protecting people's right to own guns, what she said would be right. But obviously, it's more about promoting hatred for certain groups.

 

[P4p Islam]

Seems to me that with their recent ad campaign, the NRA is openly calling on the gov't to use violence to silence political dissent.

Alex Jones just recently went on a tangent calling for right wingers to kill libs too.

 

[Cubo de Sangre]

They're a pro gun lobby, not a civil rights lobby. It's essentially a huge gun industry super PAC.

Guns are a civil right and the NRA is very active politically. Now who's being the dullard?

 

[Jorge Luis Borges]

They're a pro gun lobby, not a civil rights lobby. It's essentially a huge gun industry super PAC.

No, they are a pro Second Amendment rights lobby.

There is zero confusion on my part. It is a call to arms but I didn't claim it would be successful and I didn't say NRA member types are going to start shooting people over it. My bet is gun sales get a bump, which have been stagnant since Rs took power.

I can believe that a message is shit and dangerous without predicting the end of civilization. I've said this to you before but you can ask for my views and avoid confusing yourself and jumping to conclusions.

I'm sorry you see providing an accurate transcript of what was said for those who might not have heard or seen it as disingenuous. You're free to be wrong about that too.
