Nancy Pelosi has launched a horrific attack on gun-owning Americans.
She thinks that gun rights in our country should be over and done with.
And she has used her power to demand an immediate gun grab.
Nancy Pelosi comes from San Francisco, a place where almost nobody has guns except for the street criminals.
Because of that, she has a very unfriendly and negative view of guns, and it is baffling to her that so many people in this country continue to want to own guns.
She doesn’t understand gun owners, and her lack of understanding leads to fear and resentment, and this comes out when she speaks publicly on the topic.
Pelosi thinks that people who own guns must have bad intentions, and that it is therefore reasonable for the government to crack down on them.
She recently went to Oxford University in England to participate in a debate, and she had some scathing remarks about guns while she was there.
Her speech, in front of an English audience that surely agreed with her about guns, revealed how much resentment she has towards the millions of Americans who exercise their Second Amendment rights.
According to The Truth About Guns, “It has become a tradition in recent elections for anti-gun Democrats to condescendingly refer to opposition voters as too stupid and bigoted to act in their own best interests. The latest example of this came from none other than former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), whose Bay Area district covers arguably the most anti-gun jurisdiction in the country. Her remarks had a receptive audience, delivered in a recent debate before the Oxford Union Society in England about whether ‘populism is a threat to democracy.’”
Pelosi went on a rant about people in red states who she clearly has contempt for.
The article continues, “Pelosi called these people ‘pour souls’ who are ‘looking for some answers.’ She continued: ‘We’ve given them to them, but they are blocked by some of their views on guns. They have the three Gs: guns, gays, God (that would be a woman’s right to choose). And the cultural issues cloud some of their reception of an argument that is really in their interests.’
“Pelosi, however, may have been putting the chicken before the egg. It is entirely possible that it’s not a love of guns that keep people from embracing her style of globalist politics. Rather, it’s possible working-class Americans struggling to keep their heads above water recognize politicians like Pelosi have no understanding of or concern for people like them.”
Her derogatory remarks prove this. People who live in the middle of America don’t consider themselves “poor souls.”
In fact, many of them have a great appreciation for the life that they have been given, and their conservative views aren’t out of resentment but out of respect for tradition.
Pelosi doesn’t understand that. She thinks they own guns because they are backwards, and therefore the government needs to come down hard on them.
