Maddow on Love for Guns: 'I Just Don't Think We Should Be Allowed to Bring Them Home'

Rachel Maddow, gun lover? Well, sort of - and with some strings attached, of course.
The MSNBC host of the "The Rachel Maddow Show" appeared on Jimmy Fallon's Aug. 31 NBC show and told the host about her first date - at a shooting range.
"My first date with my girlfriend Susan was at a shooting range," Maddow said. "That was awesome. It was ladies' day on the range. Her sister is a lifetime NRA member and she was organizing ladies' day on the range at her gun club. So we did it. We shot AR-15s and we threw tomahawks and we did archery, pistols and skeets."

However, Maddow's gun enthusiasm goes beyond romantic rituals with her girlfriend. She also bragged of making "liberals shoot guns."
"When I had my radio show - that was my full time job, before I was on TV, I used to bring all of my producers to the shooting range in Manhattan," Maddow said. "There's one down on 20th Street and that's what we'd do to unsettle them when they started working for me."
But NRA members shouldn't get too excited. Maddow isn't a closet Second Amendment enthusiast. No, in fact she views guns as amusement devices that should be regulated to the point that you're only allowed to shoot them at shooting ranges, galleries or gun clubs.
"I like making liberals shoot guns - I just don't think we should be allowed to bring them home," Maddow said. "It's like I mean you go to the carnival you know, like the roller coasters - it's fun. But that doesn't mean you get one to come home with. Doesn't mean you get to do your own home roller coaster - just leave it there, it's a game."
ITS A GAME YOU STUPID BUTCH LIBERAL? IT A CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT!!!!!

Stuck on stupid

She's still up on Olberman.

Maybe I'm wrong, but there may be hope for her. It should not be too hard for her to understand that if we told people it was OK to read newspapers, but had to leave them at the store, that would be a violation of their constitutional rights; I think she might get that.

Manlier too. But it is hard to hate a pickup driving, labrador owning woman who fishes. I think there's hope for her.

No it isn't.

I agree, you should not take home your liberals.
Or that liberals should not take home there guns.
Either way you cant trust'em, liberals politicians that is.
-
No real hope for her.
Just the same old typical Liberal that can't (or won't) apply normal logic or reason to a given subject........just her own twisted viewpoint of what would make our society into the Great Utopia that she has conjured in her own mind.
Using FullAuto's Newspaper analogy, to a degree: If you told her that you could only read books in a library and were not allowed to own books, or have them in your home, that would be a travesty......trampling on our rights.........but in her liberal mind, there would be no logical connection to her stated opinion of gun ownership.
Now I'll go look for 98 more pennies............ ;)

I'm of the opinion that it is pretty much a waste of time to to try to convince people of the error in their ways. My thought is not to explain or apologize for what I do and to marginalize the argument of the antis. It may not be the polite thing to do...but polite got us where we are today. This is not to say I will not engage in conversation, but when intelligent conversation is not the aim but instead ridicule of gun owners, there is no explantion, no apology.
I know that's not what you are talking about here....but I just had to rant. :)

Isn't this Maddow the same whack job that was in NYC and claimed she was attacked by right-wing fanatics? And then it turned out she just stumbled and fell on her own?

"Did you know my mammy and daddy was brothers n sisters?" Either that, or he's been exposed to some other severe brain trauma.

Rastus, I'm generally not one to lecture on religion, but the great comission is that we preach the good news in the most effective manner posible given the circumstances. The FAR, (VERY FAR) lesser comission is that you explain what you believe politically and why. Maybe you will change minds, maybe you won't, but if you don't try you won't do. And if not you, then who? if not now, then when? At the end of the day, any moron can demonize an opponent, even a true jackass (onrecess as exhibit A) can eviserate them, it takes a gentleman to try to persuade them. If you fail, you've lost nothng, if you don't, you've sold yourself short. I have (and am as we speak) putting my money where my mouth is. Try it some time. Its called speaking the truth in love.

Substitute: Free speech
"I think its OK to use free speech as long as you pay a fee to do it and it is under supervision at an authorized location where they hold your drivers license while you are doing it.... and you cant take it home with you."
*I'm sure what she is saying makes sense in her own mind ::)
-
She should be able to mash on all the women she wants under supervision but she shouldn't be allowed to take them home.
-
Ah, the inner workings of a liberal mind......................................................bizarre, ain't it?
Play with your toys, but don't take them home. Do you understand them?

I do like that at least she likes shooting. She's halfway there, or at least part of the way. There probably isn't much chance of it, but wouldn't it be great to convert her …to gun owner that is ;). Let's take her to the range and ease her into a trip to the desert, where she can really let loose some hell-fire. Really get her hooked. Maybe we could hhook her up with the pink pistols.
People like her don't get that we gunnys are just people too and not the crazies that they make us out to be. That if even half of the huge number of us were as nuts as they think, everyone would be dead. We just have different ideas on how to stay safe and who is responsible for our families' safety.

I don't know that she enjoys shooting so much as using shooting to f..k with her fellow liberals' minds - what there are of them. Just another example of the mean-spirited nature of the left, and the ugly world they will create if we let them.
