You might have heard of Senator Corey Booker (D-NJ) from his “I am Spartacus” silliness during the Brett Kavanaugh Supreme Court confirmation hearings. If you do, you’ll remember that he did a lot of grandstanding with empty rhetoric. It seemed clear to anyone paying attention that he was using that hearing to set up a Presidential bid for 2020. And that’s exactly what he did.
Now, going along with his pattern of silly statements and grandstanding, Booker is trying to set himself up as the candidate that anti-gunners will love, all emotion and no rational thought. AWR Hawkins writes,
Presidential hopeful Cory Booker (D-NJ) launched a two-week campaign tour pledging to “bring a fight to the NRA.”
Fox News quoted Booker saying, “We will bring a fight to the NRA like they have never, ever seen before — and we will win.”
Booker also listed specific gun controls he would push as president, saying, “We won’t wait for more thoughts and prayers for communities that have been shattered by gun violence from Pittsburgh to Parkland to Charleston. We will pass universal background checks, we will ban assault weapons and close loopholes that allow people who never should have a gun to get one.”
He did not mention that nearly every mass shooter in the last ten years acquired his guns via a background check. Therefore, universal background checks would not have stopped a single one of those shootings. Moreover, he did not point out that the Department of Justice’s National Institute of Justice issued a report showing the 1994-2004 “assault weapons” ban did not reduce crime.
Booker also overlooked the fact that the so-called “Charleston Loophole” was actually a clerical error that misled background check reviewers. It was not an error, or loophole, in background check system.
On March 31, Breitbart News reported Booker’s claim that the U.S. has “a mass shooting every day.” He hedged his statement by saying these shootings occur “in the aggregate.” In other words, there are four individual murders across the country that, if counted together on a given day, can be redefined as a mass shooting.
Now, if there is a more ridiculous person who has already thrown their hat into the ring for the 2020 Presidential race, I don’t know who it is. What I do know, though, is that we don’t need this clown in office, so let’s stay on the offensive and make sure that we get pro-gun people like us to vote for someone with some common sense.
I have several 30 round and even more 40 round magazines for my AR, and multiples for my other rifles, hand guns! I was hunting when I was 9 years old! I am now 72 years old! Guess what…..with knowledge of the weapons one ALWAYS learns how dangerous they can be if used for other than hunting/ protection of you/family !
Hell, people kill each other with a 2×4 board! It AIN’T the gun people!!!!!!!!
Respect your gun and the right to use it for the proper purpose !!!!
Signed,
Don…..good old TEXAS boy!
AMEN!!!!
From a 70 year old ARMY
VIETNAM COMBAT VETERAN!!!
Thank you for your service to keep America a FREE country!
Don I’m a Good ole Texas Boy my self and was taught at the age of Nine first Handling a Firearm Safely then how to shoot and hit my Target and as that Dumbass Salwater form California wants to debate the NRA but not Dana ole Sputicus and him both would have no ass at all going up against LTC. North (usmc retired) but Dana would eta both alive and Sputicus should check there are 400 gun laws on the books now ENFORCE THEM
This good old Idaho Boy takes this kind of nonsense seriously. Booker is full of crap. He cannot get his legislative ideas passed at all. THen what doe he do to outlaw rocks, limbs, knives, forks anad a host of other weapons that can kill someone just as quickly. What an idiot!!!!!!!
I’ve been shooting guns since I was 4, I’m 62 now and not once have any of my guns went out hunting anyone or anything without me, and I’ve only shot One person in self defense. and he hung himself in Jail while awaiting going back to Prison for life for his actions the second time. he had just gotten out of a 10 year prison stretch for shooting someone, guess he didn’t learn. his buddy got him the new 10mm that he shot at me with. even he knew he. was not allowed to have guns.
And Corey Bugger is a MORON, he was the Mayor of Newark NJ one of the highest crime filled cities in the USA, he was a Slouch then and he will ALWAYS be a Worthless Slouch with a big mouth
All dems. want is to control the public so they can put forth all there evil ways of complete control.They want slaves to do there bidding. Dems. started the KKK. and they are trying to bring back the racist organisation.
Adolf was for gun control, look at what happened to millions of people in Germany. Our for fathers included the second amendment to protect the people from government terrene. As long as we citizens are armed the government would have a hard time becoming a dictatorship. the gun laws we have don’t work! Criminals don’t obey the law. I took a oath to prevent this from happening when I enlisted in The United States Marine Corps and again when I enlisted in the US Air Force Reserves, I have never been released from that oath. I Will Support and Defend the Constitution of United States against ALL ENAMIES FORGIN and DOMASTIC.
Same oath here Sgt. mine has NO expiration date either. Thank you for your long career and service.
The socialist & communist all want to take on Trump. Luckily for the USA none will be successful! Trump 2020!
You are absolutely right, in fact i knew a man killed by a 2×4 and the killer is still free. He must have had a good lawyer, or N.Y. don’t have a problem with 2x4s.Its all about money and what lawyer can lie better. Americans be ware if the government gets our guns away from us, its over no turning back its over, just like ADOLF HITLER. You remember how that turned out, and nothing they could do to stop him, that’s were our guns helped us. think before you vote. THINK HARD. Central New Yorker.
This clown is funny. He thinks that if he makes enough Anti-Constitutional gun laws,, that we’ll just politely just give them up??
HAHAHAHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
From our cold dead hands Sparty………
FredK All the gun grabbers want, is control over every aspect of your life. They don’t really care who gets shot, they want to control the populace. And that is what communism is like. Think about it, America.
I’m 82 years old. I served in the Naval Amphibious Forces. We did the beach head landings. I’m lucky to be alive. Cory Booker can KMA. He’s a piece of filth! He is unfit to serve.
Somebody needs to remind this Papa Delta Bravo hoew Spartacus ended up.
The biggest danger of stupid is that one can be so stupid that you can not judge yourself. This guy will look down the barrel and pull the trigger, cant wait for that day. The NRA is there because their members, American citizens, founded them and support them with willing contributions, not TAXES. What makes this idiot think that the Americans wants him to fight them? If Americans want the NRA gone they will stop voting for them with their contributions, Booker is beyond being given attention.
JUST WHAT WE NEED FOR PRESIDENT!? A SWAMP RAT TRAITOR TO RUIN OUR NATION AND DESTROY ANYTHING THAT RESEMBLES FREEDOM AND SECURITY!!
This is the kind of feces to prove Booker does not know the law of the land! Second amendment!
I will personally add to the funds of Dick Chaney to take Booker hunting (LOL)
