Jeez, could you find a more sensationalistic piece of media drivel?
"Blood drenched lobbyist"? And talk about oversimplification of the issue. I certainly hope this guy bills himself as an entertainer rather than a journalist (like Limbaugh does), because he is certainly not a journalist of any credibility.
you probably missed where I said I come from a long line of gun-lovers... I've seen the NRA, I've gotten the newsletters and have been to numerous 'picnics' over the years... they've gone radical.. sorry.

when Obama was elected.. some stores in my area.. florida.. ran out of bullets because the NRA said Obama was going to ban guns and bullets.. They're now saying he was just kidding in his 1st term, it's his 2nd term where he's going to ban them all..
sorry, that's extremism..
if you'd remove the blinders, you might..
I'm not anti-gun.. far from it... but the NRA is like that nut-fuck crazy uncle who you have let into thanksgiving because he's mom's brother.. but before he walks through the door, you hide the dog because he's crazy enough to start fucking it in the middle of dinner..
Right. He's 'not a journalist' because you don't like what he says about the lobbyist for your precious guns. So much for your convincing argument.

He is one of the more trusted journalists in the business .. and I agree with him on his thoughts about guns and the NRA.
The notion that guns, guns, and more guns makes America safer is ridiculous.

You think "blood drenched Wayne" is a line that a serious journalist would use to describe him? WTH?
No, the fact that I am an NRA member and a gun owner is not why I mocked this piece. I disagree with the NRA on numerous issues, and I have stated several of them on threads here in recent days.
I don't, however, hold someone responsible for acts they did not commit. Buying bullets in bulk is not the mark of a mass murderer. If bulk ammunition sales were banned, it would accomplish nothing except to make shooting more expensive for everyone. The mass murderers would simply shop more often and in different places. Banning bulk ammo sales does not stop mass murderers, it only provides them with a minor inconvenience. To claim differently is to ignore the truth.

BAC, any journalist that starts a piece of by calling someone a "blood drenched lobbyist" is starting a hack piece. Agree or disagree with the NRA, the sales of bulk ammunition is not the problem. O'Donnel did not even talk about guns, but about bulk sales of ammunition. In essence saying it would be ok if we just sold smaller boxes of bullets. I call that a farce.
I watch MSNBC all the time....for probably about 60% of my news programming, from Morning Joe to Chuck Todd to ... Well, I draw the line at Chris Jansing and change the channel when it's her turn. I also watch some of the various liberal commentary programming in the evenings on occasion, plus some of these guys/gals are guests on some of the morning shows. The Lawrence O'Donnel might as well be Rosy O'Donnel...he is about as condescending and vitriolic to the right as they come. Even Rachel Maddow and Al Sharpton are more reasonable than he is.

Wow. Too bad your argument is still transparent and unconvincing.
My argument is that selling smaller boxes of ammo will not change anything. Apparently you disagree. That speaks volumes.
Wow, too bad you have no real argument to offer and choose to try and play it off.
But luckily, your wishes have not come true and I can still buy firearms, buy ammunition by the case, and will hunt again this fall. Let me know when you think you'll be able to do more than offer snide remarks.
Yes, and that's all that matters - you and your precious guns, and your 'right' to kill animals. It colours every aspect of your argument. Your warped, lopsided position deserves every snide remark it gets from me or anyone else.

I agree with him .. including calling NRA lobbyists "blood-soaked."
I remain forever amazed by your stance on guns.
Is the solution to do nothing .. call for more guns?
I consider him to be no more of a 'journalist' than I consider Sean Hannity to be a journalist. Both are the same, just on opposite sides. He gained in status and exposure on the network about the time Keith Olbermann left so I still consider him to be Keith Olbermann's replacement...and he's just about as loony as Keith was.

So you think selling smaller boxes of ammo would help reduce crime or stop mass murderers?

Maddow and Sharpton kiss Obama's ass every chance they get. Sharpton won't even criticize Obama.
Is that what you call journalism?
I Bijou British? That would explain a bit.

The piece shown here never talked about guns at all. He harped on mass murderers buying thousands of rounds of ammunition. Do you think selling ammo in smaller quantities would have ANY effect on the crime rates or stop these mass murders??
It seems to be a major point with quite a few people, but the sales of bulk ammo is not the problem. The only difference between buying 1,000 rounds at one pop and buying 20 boxes at 10 different locations is convenience. Is that all we want, to inconvenience these lunatics?
No sir. I call it partisan hackism...if you'll allow me to create a term.
I'm just saying that out of all of the leftist people on that network he (and Mr. Ed) are the most unreasonable, IMO.Canceled.2014.1

Oh hell, if he is a journalist on the same level as hannity then I rest my case. Hannity is no more a journalist than I am the queen of England.
