165. "Isn't fantasizing about killing people for kicks
Fri Dec 21, 2012, 01:00 PM
Dec 2012

the filthiest form of pornography"? Why yes, Mr. LaPierre. It is. And what do you think people running around with assault rifles with humongous magazines are doing, and actively emulating?

You blame people who watch a movie, you blame people who play a video game, and it's all their fault. It certainly couldn't possibly be the person who actually possesses the assault rifles and use them. It couldn't possibly be that for them, it's not just a fantasy that it is a reality.

A database for the mentally ill. Yeah, that will work out really well.

Here's the part that made me scream out "Because of you and your lobbyists you asshole!". When this horrible excuse for a human being had the NERVE to say that prosecutions for gun violations were lower.

Why in the fuck do you think that is? Could it be that you and your lobbyists have engineered legislation designed to put guns in every hand they can and make it legal?

I had to quit watching it at about 10 minutes in. I can't stand to see more. This was the most hypocritical, self-serving, outrageous and outright twisted piece of garbage I've ever heard.
