Morning Joe just annihilated Dana Loesch and the NRA

[PA Democrat]

They showed a compilation of ads in which hateful provocateur Dana Loesch incites division and hatred against the left, the media, Democrats and anyone who does not support Trump.

They have also been extremely critical of her attempt to stigmatize ALL people with a mental health diagnosis. It is not helpful to use descriptions like "CRAZY" if the goal is to get people into treatment.

1. Kick and recommend for visibility of the evil NRA.

[Fred Sanders]

24. Evil NRA...."evil" before mention of their name is good.

[dchill]

2. What kind of personal turmoil moves someone like that?

She's being rude and threatening to a healthy majority of this country.

[gratuitous]

34. But, according to David Brooks of the New York Times

We all have to wait until Dana Loesch and rural conservatives are ready to do something, because they have to lead the way, and we have to be patient with them, and respect their views and their culture. I suppose Brooks would have mentioned "quit bleeding so loudly" if he'd had a little more space in his asinine column.

For me? I decided after one of the massacres (and I don't remember exactly which one it was - Umpqua Community College, maybe?) that I wasn't going to listen to people like Loesch anymore. They just want to see more death, because that's how they make their living. They are disqualified in my mind from further participation on this issue.

[oberliner]

3. He also praised Trump

And said the White House "got it right" with their BS "listening session" on guns (where Trump espoused the idea of arming teachers).

[PA Democrat]

7. Joe Scarborough still holds some ridiculous hope that Trump will "pivot"

But we know that Trump has a habit of erratic position shifts. I hope they hold him accountable because I doubt Trump will do anything. He is slated to speak at CPAC tomorrow and I am sure that he will be called to task by the NRA and all their puppets.

[pangaia]

26. Joe, like almost all the others, is just an overpaid actor 'reading a script.'

The sooner we accept that, the better.

[melman]

35. What he is, is a right wing Republican

Just like he was when he was in Congress.

Yes I know he made a big production out of 'officially leaving' the party. Don't care.

[hlthe2b]

4. Those NRA clips are beyond vile--they are dangerous and frightening...

A call to gun-toting domestic terrorists to take horrendous action.

How is this different from ISIS fomenting their call to terrorism? HOW?

[PA Democrat]

8. The NRA is a terrorist organization.

Time to call them out.

[CTyankee]

5. "We're coming for you."

That was alarming.

[TNNurse]

25. It was a threat. Plain and simple a threat.

[dchill]

41. Yes. Combined with the "We have superior equipment"...

remark, it's a terroristic threat.

[CTyankee]

42. I'm sure Trump will be on that real fast...

[TreasonousBastard]

6. OK, seriously now-- if it is crude, but acceptable, to call rightwing men...

pricks and dicks, why can't we call this woman, who is worse than a lot of them, a ____ or a ____?

[KY_EnviroGuy]

33. Good point and here's another one...

Get any of the right-wingers and gun nuts to explain why the NRA and Faux news seems bound to presenting their adjenda using lots and lots of eye candy.

Fuel for the hyper-testosterone laden white boys just to get into their brains (and control their votes)?

...............

[LakeArenal]

40. Because name calling is a tactic used

By folks who are losing the arguement

[TNNurse]

44. I call her a heartless or soulless bitch.

Few women object to to bitch, many of us use it. I and others consider the "c" word intolerable and will call you out if you use it. I am sure there are others who think it is OK.

[dewsgirl]

9. This woman and the shouting propoganda lady

On North Korean TV, both frighten me equally.

[Berlin Expat]

36. I actually sort

of like the North Korean propaganda lady (Ri Chun-hee).

She reminds me of a human version of Morbo, the news monster from Futurama.

[dewsgirl]

38. 😂😂😂

[get the red out]

10. She is a wicked person

Horrific!

[TNNurse]

28. Wicked is not a bad enough word to describe her.

She is dangerously evil.

[exboyfil]

11. Why doesn't anyone ask

why Trump is trying to cut $110B/yr from Medicaid? Medicaid is the largest payee for mental health services in the country.

[Glorfindel]

12. And yet her master, tRump, rescinded restrictions on the mentally ill buying guns

this person should get her stories straight.

[beachbum bob]

13. the democrats have never placed the NRA directly in the national crossfire and that has to change

NRA is vulnerable on so many issues but we don't attack it nationally in any effective way...

where are the ads that show's NRA's support and push for copkiller bullets to be sold to the general public?

where are the ads that show's NRA's support to unfettered access to all weapons, including machine guns?

where are the ads that show's NRA's support to sell any weapon to a 10yr kid?


why are the democratic/liberal group's giving the NRA such a free pass? All 3 of those positions can be hammered into the american voter minds with simple 30 second spots.

The NRA is nothing more than a merchant of death and its time for democrats to quit pussy-footing around with them..

[Moostache]

43. What should be produced is a video response...

Use her words and script and message, but play it over a montage of destroyed children's bodies, show the devastation of their wounds and the violence that ended their lives.

America is a junkie. It is addicted to guns and afraid to move beyond it. It rationalizes everything through distorted prisms of "self-defense" and "2nd amendment rights" and "from my cold dead hands".

Face what it means to allow gunmen to wield an AR-15 and spray high caliber rounds through innocent kids, some no more than babies still.

I am sick of Dana Loesch and her ilk. Associate her words, her call to violence and confrontation with the reality of what that ends up in...stick her voice and face on the images of the true horror that she represents and wants to protect and maintain. Turn her very essence into something horrifying and disgusting to polite society. Then film the sequels on her responses until she goes away forever.

America needs an intervention and interventions are not timid or pulling punches to save one's feelings....to do it right, America must be forced to watch, witness and see the consequences of military ammunition on civilians. Show it on the news, play the footage as on-screen footage every time someone starts blathering on about the 2nd amendment rights (and remedies). Associate the gun and death cult with the images of the fruit of their labor...

And if they don't like it? Too bad. You lay with dogs, you get up with fleas.

[Stellar]

14. The badass NRA is just looking for Target practice in those videos.

Why don't they do more advertisements of other nations with a gun fedish and less death than the USA. I think that would get more positive attention.

[peggysue2]

15. Time for the majority to . . .

press its own agenda regarding gun regulation. Dana Leosch and her NRA backers would have us believe that unfettered gun sales represent the majority of American citizens. That is as false as these NRA videos.

After Sandy Hook, 90% of Americans wanted Congress to implement sensible gun regulation. Nothing happened. After the current massacre, 68% of the public is calling for moderate gun regulation. It remains to be seen if anything happens. Marco Rubio had the gall to say money was not the guiding principle in the gun question. Rather, he said, it was the millions of American citizens who support guns. However, there are millions more who are demanding Congress to get off its ass and do what should have been done years ago--get military grade weapons off our streets and out of our schools. That includes 75% of gun owners.

This whole thing is another Big Lie perpetuated by the Republican Party. They have fetishized guns in the same way they have fetishized the unborn.

It needs to stop. Now. And Dana Leash needs to find a different revenue stream.

[LovingA2andMI]

20. Exactly....

And Dana Leash needs to find a different revenue stream.

We guess, being a so-called "Mommy Blogger" was not $$ (Paying) Her Enough..... http://www.mamalogues.com/

So she is fine with others having their kids killed now, by a gun. This Woman is a disgusting POS.

[PA Democrat]

16. The NRA's Wayne LaPierre to speak at CPAC today.

Maybe he can pass out some blood soaked political donations to his puppets in government.

[PA Democrat]

17. Dana Loesch is speaking at CPAC right now. She is VILE.

[PA Democrat]

18. "The government can't keep you safe and they want to take away your guns."

Then she claimed that she needed an armed security detail to leave the townhall last night because the participants were threatening her.

[peggysue2]

19. BTW, . . .

Loesch is on stage now at CPac.

This woman heard nothing last night at the town hall. Nothing. You might think she and the NRA are the victims. Make no mistake. these people are hateful.

[PA Democrat]

21. I watched the beginning and had to shut it off. She implied that the audience at last night's

townhall threatened her safety.

[peggysue2]

23. Yeah, I hear you

Always the victim. I'm listening to Wayne LaPierre right now. It's all about European-style socialists threatening freedom and safety. The right to life seems to have fallen off the list of priorities for the gun fetishists.

According to this spew we must harden our schools like a military fort to ensure our children's safety.

It's sheer, utter craziness.

[anneboleyn]

39. Shes the worst sort of malignant narcissist. Everything is ALWAYS about her. Nevermind the presence

of all those kids and parents who had lost friends, siblings, and children in these horrific shootings, for that nutter the only thing of interest is HER, period. Her mania and rage makes her appear seriously deranged — so the nra picks her as their go-to for commercials threatening the NYTimes etc.

I will never understand how someone can watch those ads and not find them obvious threats of violence and not be repelled by the creepy-as-hell rage in her eyes and in her voice (“we’re coming for you” — And she’s screaming that high school kids threatened HER?

[rock]

22. As usual

When it comes from the RW it is mostly (maybe even all) opinionary. Loesch could not testify in court to any single statement she makes as it is not objectively bound.

[elleng]

27. Good. Tho I don't watch (anything at that hour,)

my daughter called me earlier with resounding condemnation of loesch and, as she said, ALL incumbents, VOTE them OUT! She has 2 little kids.

[geardaddy]

29. So where's the footage of Morning Joe annihilating her?

I need a shower after seeing these.

[Buckry]

30. So they gave the NRA free air time??

doesn't make sense.

[rainin]

31. Republican men are jerking off to these videos.

Especially white supremacist men.

[Bluepinky]

32. She seems seriously deranged. Hope she doesnt have access to a gun.

[The Wizard]

37. Can their dicks be that small? (NT)
