Comic Hasan Minhaj Has Congressional Audience Squirming – Not Laughing – with Slapdown Over Inaction on Guns

Comic Hasan Minhaj Has Congressional Audience Squirming – Not Laughing – with Slapdown Over Inaction on Guns. We’ll take his spiel apart below.

“The sad reality is that stuff like this is going to continue to happen unless we realize that civil liberties are an all or nothing game … So whether you like it or not we all have to step up and fight for each other, otherwise the whole thing is a sham.”

Evidently every civil liberty on the planet except the Second Amendment.

Next up.

“And until we do that, hijabis are going to get harassed in the streets, members from the trans community are going to be demonized for using the bathroom, and my brothers and sisters in the African-American community, their spines are going to continue to get shattered in the backs of paddy wagons until we stand up and say something.”

Well based upon that statement it appears he’s worried about everyone but gay’s who get shot by radical islamist.

Next.

“And ultimately it comes down to money and influence. Right now, since 1998, the NRA has given $3.7 million to Congress. There are 294 sitting members of Congress that have accepted contributions from the NRA, and that doesn’t even include the millions of dollars from outside lobbying.”

That’s less than $200k per year which is less than Hillary charges for one speech.

Also, we hate to bust his bubble, but with 294 members of congress taking NRA money let’s take that $200k per year and divide it by 294 members and that is a whopping $680.00 per year per member.

Now, want to guess how many liberal Democrats believe this guy? Try all of them.

    "What we saw in Orlando was one of the ugliest cocktails of problems that we still see here in America – a cocktail of homophobia, xenophobia, lack of access to mental healthcare and sheer lack of political will," Minhaj said.

    It just shows how crazy these people are that he doesn't mention Islam, radical Islam at all. At least throw it in the alphabet soup of reasons.

    I'm all for money out of politics, especially my taxes.

  • And how much have pharmaceutical corporations given to Congress? Are they EVER going to be held accountable for manufacturing drugs that turn people insane?

    • Not to mention Drug Companies, Big Oil, banks, businesses like Microsoft.....the list could go on for days....Why was this person even speaking to members of congress? They get to hire comedians now? They don't have to go outside to do that, just drag Pigklosi up to the front and let her open her mouth..
