Coulter On Gun Violence: ‘If You Compare White Populations, We Have The Same Murder Rate As Belgium’
by Anjali Sareen | 10:29 pm, January 14th, 2013
Ann Coulter visited Sean Hannity‘s show Monday night to discuss President Obama‘s recent cabinet picks as well as his possible actions on gun control. Coulter said she had just come back from England where they have “not bought into” the “diversity enthusiasm” of the States. “The liberals,” Coulter claimed, are “pushing and pushing and pushing” to have more mass murderers of color.
“If you compare white populations, we have the same murder rate as Belgium,” Coulter said. “So perhaps it’s not a gun problem, it’s a demographic problem.”
Hannity asked the conservative commentator what she thought would be the result if the “imperial” Obama “shreds the constitution” by taking executive action on gun control and the debt ceiling. Coulter said she didn’t think he would do that but said if he did, Republicans should push back: “We won’t ban abortions, we will just ban abortionists and abortion clinics. How would that be?”
She claimed Obama and his administration were “not serious about doing anything about shooting in America” and went on to opine that banning high capacity magazines would be useless.
Coulter also quipped that her opposition to Obama’s appointments was that they were all “white men.” Hannity agreed and sarcastically said, “this is an outrage.”
“The lack of diversity shocks me,” Coulter added.

liar !
pants on fire!
*tunes out*
oh fuck no.
Isn't that what Republicans have been trying to do since 2010?
erm what
when is the ann coulter from boondocks gonna show up
geez wrong thing to read when first waking up...
Yeah, that's right. Aside from entitled white dudes who make their problems that of innocent people when they decide to shoot up theatres, elementary/high school/post-sec institutions, and workplaces, gun violence totally doesnt affect ~Coulter's~ gated community. Nor is there a discernible pattern of frequencies of gun-driven mass shootings between Belgium and the U.S. None at all.
Coulter said she had just come back from England where they have “not bought into” the “diversity enthusiasm” of the States.
Wow, citation needed (for the claim that she's been to England).

Why deal with actual problems when they can appeal to racist stereotyping and their right-wing gun nuts will slurp it up like a strawberry milkshake with indignant whipped cream on top.
we don't need more gun laws, we just need to enforce the ones we have!
*rumors circulate there may be executive order to better enforce existing gun laws*
TYRANNY! HE'S COMING FOR OUR GUNS!!!
He does what you ask, then you get buttburt. Go, gun nuts, go... live somewhere far away from me.
Stopped reading there.
Also, the lack of diversity in Obama's appointments is likely a direct result of the lack of diversity in Congress in general. I'm pretty sure if he pulled up some POC appointments, they'd cry about favoritism. Ann Coulter, please to be boarding the next plane into the sun, thanks.
I like to think of her like that Boondocks episode in which she's doing it for the money/publicity and to make the GOP look bad.
good times
