Gun Rights Group Calls For Universal Background Checks on Elected Officials
”
This is brilliant:
He pointed to recent political scandals in the New York Legislature, which just passed a new restrictive gun control law, where a state senator and state assemblyman were arrested last week, as “one small example.”
“But look at politics in recent years,” Gottlieb observed. “From state and federal scandals, to arrests involving several members of Mayors Against Illegal Guns, we have had example after embarrassing example of public officials being charged with violating various laws. Does anyone think former Congressman Anthony Weiner, who had to quit his post over a lewd e-mail scandal, should clear a mental health screening to buy a gun?
“If you compare percentages,” he continued, “the rate of criminal activity by politicians is probably far higher than the rate of crimes committed by the general public.
Imagine if this were done for say, oh, I don’t know…the president?
“I’m sorry, you worked with who again?”
“Bill Ayers.”
“The same Bill Ayers that was a domestic terrorists? That Bill Ayers?”
“Yep.”
“And you started your political career in his house?”
“Right in his living room. That’s right. He gave me money.”
“Uh-huh. Well, thanks for stopping by, Mr. Obama.”
I think what’s good for the goose is good for the gander. After all, what has killed more kids: the right to bear arms or drones?
Think of the children.
If a politician thinks a background check is good for us, it should be good for them.
What do you think?
