Glenn BecKKK: Packin' at the cinema

[marmar]

Glenn Beck likes to bring his gun to the movies.

This afternoon, the Senate defeated an amendment sponsored by Sen. John Thune (R-SD) that would have allowed individuals with concealed carry gun permits to carry firearms into another state. Later on Fox News, Glenn Beck interviewed Thune to discuss the measure. “We’re going to disagree,” Beck warned Thune, but later, he made sure to present his gun-totin’ bona fides. “I’m a gun owner, and I’m a member of the NRA, and I am a concealed weapons permit holder. So, I mean, I love guns!” Beck boasted. He then aired a clip New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg criticizing concealed carry laws. “They’ll be able to go to the movies with guns and there will be nothing that our police officers can do about it,” Bloomberg complained. Beck then mocked Bloomberg’s concern:

BECK: I went to the movie this weekend with a gun. And surprise, surprise, I didn’t kill anybody!

3. Glen Beck is actually what inspired me to buy a gun this year.

A big ass rifle so that I can keep the right wing nutjobs like Beck at a safe distance.

4. Don't be surprised if you get a lot of un-recomneds here...

after all, I was informed by someone with 6 posts that this goes against the Bill of Rights and half of DU agrees with him...actually, too many at DU agree with him.

6. It's like a bat signal with the gun people.....

..... the minute anything related to gunz gets posted, they come running like a Hazmat team to a chemical spill.

7. I hate it when I'm sitting in the theater, eating popcorn, enjoying the movie, and

someone comes up and tries to mug me.
