The failed president and apologist for Palestinian terrorists wants to bring back the “assault weapons” ban. He’s another of those, “I’m a gun owner but . . .” types. From the NY Times:

I have used weapons since I was big enough to carry one, and now own two handguns, four shotguns and three rifles, two with scopes. I use them carefully, for hunting game from our family woods and fields, and occasionally for hunting with my family and friends in other places. We cherish the right to own a gun and some of my hunting companions like to collect rare weapons. One of them is a superb craftsman who makes muzzle-loading rifles, one of which I displayed for four years in my private White House office.

But none of us wants to own an assault weapon, because we have no desire to kill policemen or go to a school or workplace to see how many victims we can accumulate before we are finally shot or take our own lives. That’s why the White House and Congress must not give up on trying to reinstate a ban on assault weapons, even if it may be politically difficult.

An overwhelming majority of Americans, including me and my hunting companions, believe in the right to own weapons, but surveys show that they also support modest restraints like background checks, mandatory registration and brief waiting periods before purchase.

So Jimmy “the failure” Carter believes that all of us who own so called “assault weapons” want to “kill policemen” or shoot up school kids? It couldn’t be that we enjoy the sporting aspects of an AR-15, or use it to hunt, or just enjoy owning a variety of firearms. Or, maybe we just want to have as much firepower as the mutants who are trying to break into our homes and murder our families.

Nope. All you “assault weapons” owners are killers, says Carter the Failure.

Oh! And he supports such “modest restraints” as mandatory registration. Hitler did that. The British did that. The Aussies did that. Then, law abiding citizens in those countries had their firearms confiscated. We know what happened in Germany, next.

Now that Jimmy “the failure” Carter has offered his advice to us, allow me to offer some to him: Hey, Jimmy? Go fuck yourself.
