The anti-gun crowd has long tried to tie our right to keep and bear arms to hunting, which is ridiculous since the 2nd Amendment contains no such clause. Since being ridiculous is the only requirement for a gun-grabber the latest ploy is to tie our gun ownership rights to killing zombies. As the liberal logic goes: since there are no zombies, nobody should be allowed to own guns. Yet for some reason these people think we should take them seriously.
David Chipman is a former senior advisor for billionaire Micheal Bloomberg’s anti-gun group Mayors Against Illegal Guns. In a lateral move, he is now a senior advisor for bullet-sponge Gabby Gifford’s gun control extremist group, known lamely as “Giffords.”
Since the coronavirus outbreak started, guns have been flying off the shelves as people look to protect themselves. Much of this is from the hysteria and doomsaying from the liberal media, but liberals don’t want to point a finger at themselves so the NRA, gun manufacturers, and of course Republicans are to blame. Chipman is very concerned that there are a lot of first-time gun buyers, who he is convinced will kill themselves and their families.
In an interview with Cheddar, Chipman compared new gun owners to the flamboyantly gay mullet having “Tiger King” for some reason and then made this recommendation:
“What I would suggest to those people who were first-time gun owners is, if they did go out and buy a gun, I would secure that gun locked and unloaded and hide it behind the cans of tuna and beef jerky that you’ve stored in a cabinet and, you know, only bring that out if the zombies start to appear, and I don’t think they are,” said Chipman.
First of all, don’t hide your gun behind the food where a kid might find it but also, WTF?, zombies?
So if people are trying to break into your house, as long as they aren’t the walking dead, you shouldn’t use your firearm for protection? This guy claims to have been an ATF agent for 25 years and this is the advice he’s giving people? The official position of Giffords is that even if you have a gun, let criminals rape and kill your family, but in the unlikely event of a zombie apocalypse, feel free to protect the wife and kids.
Chipman actually doubled-down on this zombie nonsense. Later in the interview he tried to shame people who bought guns because they definitely won’t need them to stop the advancing zombie horde:
“If we can imagine how horrible this crisis is, the people who hoarded the guns might decide six months from now, once they see no zombies around but they’ve run out of tuna and beef jerky, that they need the money to buy food,” said Chipman.
If this coronavirus bullshit is still going on in 6 months, and there are food shortages, you damn well better have a gun or you are completely screwed. It ain’t zombies you’ll need to worry about, it’s the looters and marauders, who are already starting to victimize people.
This argument is like the “you don’t need an AR-15 to hunt ducks” garbage only dumber. Chipman has added to the idiocy by saying “you don’t need a gun to kill zombies so you shouldn’t have a gun.”
The liberal version of the 2nd Amendment reads: A well regulated population, being necessary to the security of a slave State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms for hunting and killing zombies, shall still be infringed because the government knows best.
