The geniuses at MSNBC just made a powerful pro 2nd amendment argument.
(You can't bet your @$$ that it wasn't on purpose!)

MSNBC itself acknowledges, gun control and seizure by the state is certainly playing a role in keeping civilians imprisoned by the socialist Maduro regime today.

But surely it can’t happen here can it? :whistling:

Quote
MSNBC reporter Kerry Sanders unwittingly made the American case for the Second Amendment during a report Tuesday on the political upheaval in Venezuela.

Anchor Andrea Mitchell introduced Sanders for his report by commenting on the surprising ability of Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro to stay in power, despite the pressure on him to step down.

“Not only hanging on but he appears to still control the military,” Sanders said. “You have to understand, in Venezuela gun ownership is not something that’s open to everybody. So if the military have the guns, they have the power and as long as Nicolás Maduro controls the military, he controls the country.”

Yes, indeed he does. And it’s not just that gun ownership isn’t open to everybody, it’s that it’s not open at all. The Hugo Chavez regime banned private gun ownership in 2012 after a rapid rise in gun violence, mainly in Caracas. The ostensible reason for the ban was to respond to public outrage over the increased crime, but eventually the regime would have found a way to ban people from possessing firearms, with this very day in mind.

Has anyone on the left called for the reporter to be fired yet? That would pretty much be par for the course.
