Arms Dealer Ollie North Calls Student Activists 'Terrorists'

Well, traitor, arms dealer, and spanking new president of the NRA wasted almost no time showing what an absolute ignorant asshatted douche he continues to be when he … wait for it, it’s the height of stupidity, seriously …  compared student-led protests against the National Rifle Association to the violent and racist attacks on the civil rights movement in the 1960s.

North called it "civil terrorism":

"This is the kind of thing that's never been seen against a civil rights organization in America. You go back to the terrible days of Jim Crow and those kinds of things—even there you didn’t have this kind of thing."

Seriously, he called the f**king NRA a civil rights organization. And he says his proof of the violence against the NRA lies in the vandalism at NRA lobbyist Chris Cox's home—Cox says his house was splashed with fake blood … twice …clearly much worse than the real blood splattered at a church in Charleston or a school in Florida or movie theater in Aurora r a concert in Las Vegas.

And yet the student-fueled #NeverAgain movement stresses the importance of civil, non-violent disobedience, but, as is the way with the NRA, the GOP, gun nuts and morons, they spin their own message and pin themselves with the “victim” tag … unlike the nearly 21,000 shootings in 2018 … the 5,208 people killed by guns in 2018 … the 9,000 Americans injured by guns.

Yet Oliver North claims the NRA is the victim. And North also accuses the gun control movement of going after "our bank accounts, our finances"—clearly up in arms that #NeverAgain activists put pressure on businesses to cut ties with the NRA, cutting the group’s power, which has resulted in several companies ending benefits programs to NRA members and other companies choosing to stop selling guns.

Um, yeah, Ollie, hitting y’all in the bank account, spurring boycotts against supporters of gun nuts, who care not a whit about the Second Amendment because their only concern is selling guns and pocketing coins in their pockets.

And, oddly enough, and Ollie fails to mention this, that student-led gun control movement, March for Our Lives, doesn’t even mention the NRA in their mission statement, but instead focus on expanding background checks for gun purchasers and other legislative reforms.

Ooh, sounds like terrorism … to Ollie “Arms Dealer” North.
