Billionaire Michael Bloomberg has spent hundreds of millions of dollars trying to rob us of our 2nd Amendment rights. He is now running for president and would like to take his unconstitutional gun-grabbing ways to the White House. At a town hall, a law-abiding gun owner asked Bloomberg, who has armed security protecting his rich ass, if his life is worth protecting more than the rest of this country. His answer was essentially “yes.”
In advance of Super Tuesday, the first democratic primaries that Bloomberg is participating in, he did a town hall with Fox News. Like all other actual Bloomberg interactions with the public, the elite billionaire didn’t come across as a man of the people.
Michael Bloomberg is ENDED by a citizen on gun control:
“You have an armed security detail that is likely equipped with the same firearms and magazines you seek to ban the common citizen from owning. Does your life matter more than mine or my family’s?” pic.twitter.com/LawKcwJEwl

Here’s the question a man from the audience asked:
“How do you justify by pushing for more gun control when you have an armed security detail that is likely equipped with the same firearms and magazines that you seek to ban from the common citizen from owning? Does your life matter more than mine or my family’s or these peoples?” asked an awesome gun owning American hero.
Now get ready for Bloomberg’s billionaire asshole response:
“Look, I probably get like 40 or 50 threats every week, okay? And some of them are real. That just happens when you’re the mayor of New York City or if you’re very wealthy or campaigning for President of the United States, you get lot’s of threats,” said Bloomberg.
That is a big “yes” that Bloomberg considers his life more important that the rest of us and it’s a pompous detached elitist “yes.” He’s a rich important guy whose life is worth protecting at all costs and the rest of us can go f*ck ourselves.
Bloomberg continued this terrible response with a huge lie by claiming he only wants gun control that already exists.
“The only restrictions of which I’m in favor of is to prevent us from selling guns to people with psychiatric problems, criminals, or people who are minors, okay? And the federal law, right now, if you go into a gun store, that law applies to all gun stores across America. You cannot buy a gun in a gun store where they won’t do a background check and all they do is look for those there categories: if you’re a minor, if you have psychotic problems, or if you have a criminal record,” said Bloomberg.
According to Bloomberg, he only supports restrictions on gun ownership that already exist, which doesn’t quite explain why he’s sunk hundreds of millions of his own fortune to further restrict our gun ownership rights.
Bloomberg formed “Mayors Against Illegal Guns,” Everytown For Gun Safety” and bankrolls “Moms Demand Action,” 3 gun control groups that push for unconstitutional gun control beyond existing federal law.
He wants to ban semi-automatic rifles that he calls “assault weapons.” He wants to ban normal capacity magazines that hold more than 10 rounds. He wants to ban concealed carry. He has spent hundreds of millions to elect politicians who support his anti-gun agenda. He single-handedly financed the flip of the Virginia State Senate so they would pass all of these unconstitutional gun laws.
It’s not like Bloomberg being an elitist rich hypocrite was ever a secret, but now that he’s running for president, it’s particularly disgusting. He thinks he’s going to attract voters by saying that he’s so important that he must be protected by people with guns that the rest of us can’t be trusted to own. He’s wrong and after Super Tuesday when nobody votes for him, he’ll go back to bankrolling gun hating democrats who try to strip us of our rights.
