Jesse Jackson Wants To Defeat The NRA To Stop People From Shooting Down Airplanes
In the predictable wave of post-mass shooting liberal hysteria, kooks on the left have made some pretty outrageous gun control arguments, but Jesse Jackson has them all beat by a mile. The aging civil rights activist said one of the reasons why we need to defeat the NRA is because the gun rights organization enables people to own firearms capable of shooting airplanes out of the sky. I’m dead serious, he said this.
Jackson penned an op/ed for the Chicago Sun-Times called The Gun lobby can be defeated. He doesn’t actually say how the gun lobby can be defeated, just that he thinks it is possible. The general argument he presents is that because black people kill each other with illegal guns that legal gun ownership should be severely restricted.
After proclaiming, “What we have here is a national security emergency,” Jackson gets to what he thinks is the root of the problem:
Too many illegal guns are in circulation, from handguns to military assault rifles. These guns are powerful enough not only to shoot up churches and schools but to bring down airplanes.
Jackson’s confusion comes from his typical liberal ignorance of guns in general. Like all anti-gun nuts, he doesn’t know jack-shit about the things he wants to ban. Just because the left refers to semi-automatic rifles as “assault” and “military-style” weapons doesn’t mean they are the same thing that our military is equipped with. American civilians aren’t running around with surface-to-air missiles and anti-aircraft guns.
But Jackson is convinced that the same weapons our soldiers use on the battlefield are readily available at your local Bass Pro Shops:
There should be a push to revive the ban on assault weapons once more. It is ridiculous that weapons designed for war are spread across American streets.
The reforms can’t be limited to closing gun show loopholes or other gun law reforms. The Department of Homeland Security should be there, detailing the threat posed by the spread of guns designed for the military, not for hunters.
Too many legal guns are in the wrong hands.
He also mentions that none of the guns used by blacks to murder other blacks in Chicago are manufactured in the city:
Nearly nine of 10 murders (89 percent) are from gunshots. Eight of 10 victims are African-American males. The guns are not made in Chicago.
Obviously Jesse Jackson’s mental capacity is on a steep decline. Check out what he thinks Chicago’s hockey team is called:
Each Monday in Chicago, we gird ourselves for the most recent score. Not on how well the Bears, Bulls or Black Wings, Cubs or White Sox have fared, but on how many new victims of guns have been racked up.
You gotta hand it to Jackson. He managed to make anti-gun extremists like Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton seem somewhat rational and knowledgeable on the subject. It’s nice to see someone who considers himself a champion of civil rights fight so hard to eliminate a basic American civil right and to do it with an epic level of ignorance and bullshit.

I heard an AR-15 can stop a speeding locomotive.

How does anyone understand what Jesse says? He needs an interpreter.

Jackson is a lunatic!
Apparently he has been saying you can shoot a plane down for the last couple years?

Jesse Jackson actually says you can shoot down an airplane with an AR15.

This thread was created at 11:49am by priell3. Streaker posted in this thread at 11:48am, before the OP did. That's pretty impressive.
I always suspected streaker was prescient. But I bet he already knew I would say that.

The "shooting down airplanes" thing is just a way of getting attention and exaggerating for the purpose of getting more people to listen. He doesn't even know the difference between fact and fiction he just pulled from his own butt. He lost the ability to discern truth from nonsense decades ago.

Re: Jesse Jackson Wants To Defeat The NRA To Stop People From Shooting Down Airplanes
Many, many years ago, back when television was black & white, the channels only went from 2 to 13 and the stations went off the air around midnight (give or take an hour depending), there was a program based on the comic book hero, Steve Canyon, U.S. Air Force.
In one episode, it was discovered that a Strategic Air Command B-47 Stratojet, armed with nuclear bombs, had veered off its training mission from an Alaskan air base and was headed straight for Siberia. No radio communication attempts succeeded in contacting the bomber.
Air Defense Command interceptors (either F-102s or F-106s?) were finally able to intercept and get a close up visual of the bubble cockpit area atop the fuselage. There they discovered both crew members were unresponsive and there was what appeared to be a bullet hole in the Plexiglas canopy. Apparently the internal air pressure and ambient temperature equalized with outside before the crew members could appropriately react, thus becoming deceased while the airplane did what well-designed airplanes do - fly unless told to do otherwise. To avoid a very serious international incident with the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, it was decided to shoot down the bomber before it entered Soviet air space.
So, even back in the 1958-1960 timeframe, at least for a TV program, one could indeed effectively shoot down an airplane with a normal hunting rifle, supposedly.
