Article: Director of Bloomberg's Anti-Gun Group: You Should Fight a Guy Wielding an Axe With Your Fists, Not a Gun

From the same group that brought you the tidbit that Boston bomber P.O.S. #1 was a victim of "gun violence," I give you today's pearl of wisdom from King Mike's camp...

"I'd like to remind Glaze that hammers, clubs, hands and feet are used as deadly weapons in a number of homicide cases each year. Why is this signficant? Because it proves criminals don't need a gun to kill or severely injure someone. It is important to also point out FBI uniform crime reports show violent crime has been cut in half since 1992. The murder rate has decreased by 54 percent since 1992. Why? More law abiding citizens are carrying guns."

Send him over to my town with his axe handle to show us.

More homicide cases than "assault weapons."

Why is it that bloomberg is always surrounded by guys with guns...

Have you ever tried to buy an axe handle in NYC?  They're limited to 16" in length!

" a guy who shoots somebody who has anything other than a gun when they could have done something else like talk or fight with their fists"

Yeah, no, just talk to him.  Talk him down.  Have a conversation so you can just de-escalate the situation.  That is all you have to do. Maybe employ your pugilistic skills.

I think that if someone is coming at you with a weapon, the burden is on you to select a weapon that is precisely matched to the weapon wielded by the perpetrator.  Oh and if you are actually bigger and stronger than the perp, well you need to moderate your strength output as you wield your matched weapon so that your strength exactly matches that of the assailant.

 

I think I will get a few sets of antique matched dueling pistols.  Then if there is a home invasion I will just hand out pistols to everyone and either have one big mass duel, or maybe setup a single-elimination dueling playoff.  Just to make sure everything is fair and level playing field for all.

 

What a jackass!

This is why you should always carry an axe handle with you at all times...

I would like to take him up on his scenario. Where's the axe handle and when can I get an appointment.

Run! Really, come on. That might buy you time while the attacker is laughing.

OMG.  We are sooo screwed.  People actually think like this.   When are they going to wake from their coma?
