Tyranny in Bloombergistan: chase away a robber, get 3 years in jail
Mike Bloomberg would prefer if New Yorkers got robbed. Repeatedly. To him, anything is better than protecting yourself with a gun. How do I know this? I mean besides Mayor Mikey's fanatical devotion to repealing the Second Amendment? Because NYC resident George Bardwil pulled a gun on a would-be robber, and Bloomberg's Storm Troopers promptly arrested him on an illegal weapons charge.
A Manhattan millionaire faces three years in jail for drawing an unlicensed gun on a burglar inside his home.
George Bardwil, who owns linen company Bardwil Home, was in his E Street apartment when an intruder came into his home in January... Bardwil, 60, threatened the intruder with a loaded .40 cal Sig Sauer. The man fled and Mr. Bardwil called the police.
After showing the cops footage from his home surveillance cameras, they arrested him under suspicions of owning an illegal firearm...
Of course they didn't arrest the burglar. That would require them to do actual police work. Terrorizing law-abiding citizens in their own homes is much easier. And a lot more fun.
Meanwhile, instead of doing something about the crime in his backyard, Mikey is spending $12 million bucks on an ad blitz designed to pressure the U.S. Senate into imposing his totalitarian gun control regimen on the entire country. Because it's worked so well in New York, especially against the scourge of armed Manhattan millionaires. Sadly, when it comes to targeting actual criminals, his success rate is somewhat less stellar.
But why should Mikey care about that? He's got a phalanx of armed guards 24x7. Nobody's breaking intohis apartment. Elsewhere though, he can't guarantee the security of a free state. But he'll do his damnedest to ensure that the rights of the people to keep and bear arms shall be infringed at every opportunity.
That, my friends, is tyranny. | Tyranny in Bloombergistan: chase away a robber, get 3 years in jailMike Bloomberg would prefer if New Yorkers got robbed. Repeatedly.
