Chicago’s Mayor Daley blamed the Fort Hood massacre on America’s love of guns.
Andrew Marcus at Big Government reported:
“Unfortunately, America loves Guns. We love guns to a point where that uh we see devastation on a daily basis. You don’t blame a group.”
November 10th, 2009 | 4:22 pm | #1
Of course he sees devastation on a daily basis. He’s a corrupt Chicago thug politician – he causes the devastation. The main reason Daley wants guns out of the people’s hands is so his henchmen can operate more safely.

Americans love jet aircraft and box cutters, too. What Americans don’t love is Muslim extremists and their apologists.
Wake up America.
November 10th, 2009 | 4:25 pm | #3
I would like to respond to his statement and revise it a bit:
“America loves guns. Americans use guns for personal protection. We, the American people, see devastation on a daily basis from this administration and clueless politicians. I DO blame a group…the group that pepetuates these lies of political correctness. I DO blame the person who MURDERED 13 people. I DO believe this was an act of terrorism.”
How’s THAT for the truth?

What is wrong with liberals? People kill people saying that guns kill people is the same as saying a spoon made Rosie O’donald fat.

Mayor “Al Capone” Daley recently took a visiting Eastern European official to a gun show in Indiana. The official was absolutely shocked was Daleys words at the ease and amount of guns that could easily be bought.If a European is shocked so should we be shocked.
Daley is just a salad tosser of the obamaos.
November 10th, 2009 | 4:30 pm | #6
There are a few people who love guns.They will usually by guns and never fire them.Some people collect guns for hobby and investment. Most people who own guns don’t love guns. They buy them because they don’t want to be defenseless.
In a country where you have too much to lose when confronted by criminals who seek out the unarmed and vulnerable. A country that people like Mr Daley make more dangerous with their policies.
A country where the government is more likely to abuse your rights than defend them.

Oh yes, why didn’t I think of that?!? Of course! It’s so clear to me now. Thank you, Mayor Daley. Hasan didn’t have any terrorist, Islamic jihad intentions towards those good soldiers in Ft. Hood. He just LOVED GUNS.
Are libs really, truly that stupid or are they trying to subconsciously supplant notions in the non-thinking brains of Americans?

Daley is a moron. chicago has a gun ban and its a war zone. he has no standing to be giving us lectures about devastation.
November 10th, 2009 | 4:42 pm | #13
I don’t know much. Just an old timer who’s been a few places and seen a few things. But, one thing I DO know is that my ancestors played a significant role in my well-being and the tool they employed most frequently to insure this land remained the “land of the free” was a weapon. A gun; used to defend themselves and this land, thereby making it possible for me to enjoy the freedoms granted in our Constitution. I’m thinking they had the right idea. Yes, I own a gun. Several of them, in fact. And I know how to use them. My children and grandchildren deserve the same free country that was handed to me.
Five will get you ten, Daley is packing this very instant.

the deadliest thing in the last 15 centuries: islam.
islam murdered 80 hunidus alone and as many as 1 BILLION people, and keeps 500 MILLION as chattel: the women.
guns are for self-defense.
self-defense is good, not bad.
the problem in ft hood is that the victims were UNARMED.
we need more law-abiding citizens to get armed.
not less.
daley is a corrupt liberal piece of crapola.

Guns are bad on a military base?
Has anyone checked Chicago’s crime stats lately under this mayor?
Does he own any guns?
Can a Lib newscaster bother to check these questions?

He’s just running cover for Obama. The investigations were shutdown with knowledge of the highest levels since FISA warrants require AG approval. This could blow back hard on liberal meddling.

Unlike Daley, True Americans love the Constitution of the United States and the Bill of Rights. True Americans therefore treasure the right to keep and bear arms as a defense against tyrannical government and the criminal element. Democrats HATE guns because that is the only thing keeping them from total power and CONtrol.
This was a terrorist act and all the red flags were there.
Apparently the Obama regime is only interested in watching those who don’t agree with his left wing extremist policies.
If you’re Muslim and go out and kill Americans, the Obama regime will just find an excuse for his Muslim bretheran, like “oh he just snapped.”
True Americans have been stocking up on guns and ammo since Obama won the election in anticipation of Obama’s hatred for our 2nd Amendment right. Even if he were to sign an anti 2nd Amendment bill, millions of Americans have already beaten him to the bullet, literally.
I do not understand why anyone would want to live in slavery to the corrupt Democrats in Illionois. Must be a bunch of stupid sheep who can’t think for themselves, which is typcial of the Democrat mentality.

So what does “Da Mare” suggest…that we stop providing weapons to our Military personnel on U.S. Military Bases? Perhaps somebody should ask the buffoon why Chicago has so much gun crime despite his taking away our Constitutional right to bear arms. Open your eyes. This was a home grown terrorist act. No amount of political spin will change it. The cover up for the failure of our intelligence services has already started.
November 10th, 2009 | 5:24 pm | #33
I don’t know which is more scary….we have a President that is destroying the nation, and on the other hand, we have a terrorist act and those that are hired to defend us don’t know what a terrorist act is.

And he nails it … the people aren’t going to like what the commies have in store for them.
Ever wonder why Venezuela has the highest per-captia murder rate in the world. Read the history of the Democrats and their KKK to figure out the details. Did you know that about the same number of white political opponents of Democrats were lynched during the 100 year reign of the KKK as blacks were?

I live in Chicago — this is something of a refrain for da ma’yer! Guns are also the cause of the national debt and global warming.

If everyone at that base was armed, at most he would have killed 2 or 3 before they would hosed him down with lead.
When only the criminals/terrorists have guns, that is when we have problems. Guns make for a polite society.
Maybe all these left leaning mayors will give up there armed guards as an example for the rest of us.
November 10th, 2009 | 6:50 pm | #42
Here’s a question: How many shootings have occurred in Chicago in the past year?
November 10th, 2009 | 6:54 pm | #43
Daley is a funny guy.
I told my wife exactly which gun was used in this terrorist act, and..I was correct. Make/model, etc.
As one who deals in firearms, I can assure you that I have never sold one to a criminal, had one used in a crime, etc.
However, I have been “approached” twice in my life to where my use of a “personal defense” tool defused the situation very quickly without other issues.
True story:
I once showed a liberal the old put a gun on a chair trick. I asked him to tell it to kill, maim..scream at it, stomp his feet..it just won’t jump and kill anyone or anything. He did not think it was funny at all. He was telling me how stupid that was, when his eyes suddenly got REAL big, as I held a pencil to his throat, assuring him that at any time I chose, he could be deceased by my hand. His mind soon became cognizant of the lesson, that being “I” was actually the weapon, the utensil was a tool. He has not forgotten that to this day.
November 10th, 2009 | 7:40 pm | #44
Daley is a sack of low-grade night soil. He would disarm me but retain his armed security detail. If all is safe out there, then why does he have that detail?
Ditto Bloomberg, Feinstein, etc. They all have details and millions of personal money to hire all the armed security they could ever want, even if they never walk the mean streets the rest of have to. They send the hired help out to do that.
I don’t have the money to hire security, so I am my first line of self-defense. I try to minimize my chances of violent encounter by being careful and watchful. Maybe that will work, maybe not, no way to tell or know when evil will come knocking or how many friends he will bring. So I will prepare for that.
I got my heartbeat from God, and I refuse to surrender it, as long as I have breath, to anyone else. And no elitist jerk dictator is going to stop me.
November 10th, 2009 | 7:55 pm | #45
Of course Daley sees “devastation on a daily basis.” Who would think otherwise after what we learned a few years ago?
The minds of Chicago’s citizens have been poisoned by the Wrights, Pflegers and other supposed “holy men” just as this mass murderer’s mind was poisoned in his place of worship for years.
Both church and mosque taught hate. Not to hate the evil that might reside within one’s own heart, but the imagined evil in their neighbor’s. The result is the taking of lives – both literally and figuratively – of the innocent.
Throw in a few “community organizers” to add their own mind-polluting activities – along with politicians who practice corruption and deceit hourly – and you have a toxic environment.
Changing our *climate* won’t save us from our impending destruction, as they foolishly try to convince us. Changing *hearts* will.
But that’s the work of the true Messiah — a path toward salvation they’ve tried to obstruct and eliminate for far too long.

I’d like to know how Hasan got that gun – FN 5-7. It’s high-security use only to be used with armor-penetration bullets. You can’t just go into a gun shop and buy it. Perhaps someone gave it to him. Hasan was highly motivated to commit an act of jihad, and he knew that no one would have the insight – or the guts – to stop him. It’s sad that he remained alive – even if his death would make him a shahid (martyr). Dear Leader Hussein will probably invite him to the WH sometime in the future.

“You don’t blame a group”
CORRECT.
You don’t blame the NRA or gun rights activists or even all of Islam.
You blame the one radical Muslim who took up arms legally or otherwise and murdered people in accordance with his religious beliefs.
Or maybe you blame the leader of this country who’s sole accomplishment so far has been to discredit the security of this homeland and embolden and empower it’s enemies.

Da mayor’s quote would be, if entirely honest:
