Presidential candidate Bloomberg’s take on the White Settlement church shooting, with commentary by Colion Noir


Michael Bloomberg wants you to believe that gun control is about saving lives, but when a civilian uses his gun to save over 200 people's lives, he doesn’t talk about the lives saved, nor does he congratulate the person who saved those lives.

Instead, he talks about how those people shouldn’t have had those guns because the only people responsible enough to make a decision about saving your life are the cops.

So essentially, our control over those 200 plus lives is more important than your ability to save those same lives. So to Bloomberg, if you use your gun to save lives, he doesn’t care because you’re not a cop.

This needs to be played on every TV channel in the US to counter those never ending ads that Bloomberg is the savior of health care and NYC and the only one smart enough to lead America (not).

Have you ever noticed that he doesn’t appear in mirrors? :mrgreen:

Another tidbit.... an LEO family member of mine who has had direct dealings with the perp before, and arrested him once, said the report his dept got was that the perp was wearing a black wig and fake black beard when he attacked the church. Maybe he thought they wouldn't recognize him and give him some money?

Better believe they drug-tested this perp. as part of an autopsy.
When are they gonna release the results?
My gut tells me they will find something like meth, cocaine, marijuana, bath salts, etc. in his system.
Please know and follow the rules of firearms safety.

NJ wiped out gun felony of Texas Church gunman.

And it wasn’t like he was some upstanding citizen, and crossed into NJ by mistake with a gun.

Why is that? Let criminals with long histories go free, but law abiding nice people get the book thrown at them.

Our justice system is seriously screwed up, which is another reason to never, ever let the government take away law abiding citizens firearms. :mad5 :banghead:

Yes. First I thought it was a parody video with his head edited on to the real speakers body, then I wondered if he's recovering from a stroke, or just went to the dentist. I've previously seen video segments where he moves his lips....

Actually it isn't about justice any more. It is about privileged classes and money. I stand by my post.
