That is a quote from Milo regarding the black lives matter movement (a few posts earlier).
Right on schedule - from Breitbart:
Jesse Jackson: In Texas AK-47s ‘Can Bring Down Airplanes’
During the July 10 airing of Fox News Sunday, Jesse Jackson said that AK-47s in Texas “can bring down airplanes.”
Jackson’s discussion of guns began with his criticism of “military-style weapons on the streets.”
Guest-host Shannon Bream countered Jackson, pointing out that the phrase “military-style weapons” conjures up the image of the machine guns in the minds of listeners. She said it is “important to make a distinction” between gun types, particularly in light of the fact that the Dallas gunman used a semiautomatic rifle, not an automatic one.
Jackson then attempted to counter Bream’s point, saying, “Yes, but in Texas these militarized AK-47s, not only can they shoot up theaters and churches, they can bring down airplanes.”
What a braying ninny - his fifteen minutes of fame were used up decades ago. The author also brings up this little bit of data:
It should be noted that Jackson’s hometown–Chicago–has a ban on “assault weapons,” a.k.a., “military-style weapons.” Yet between January 1 and July 5, 2016 the city also had more homicides that Los Angeles and New York combined, according to NBC News. Moreover, the Chicago Tribune reported that overall number of shooting victims in Chicago January 1 to July 5 was 2,026.
Funny how that works - institute draconian gun control and the shootings go up. More guns, less crime. Wonder when the Reverend Al Sharpton will weigh in.
