What Is a Political Independent

In today’s online edition of Conservative Byte, Mayor Michael Bloomberg reportedly commented, “‘You’d Think That if a Congresswoman Got Shot in the Head’ it Would Change Congress’ Views on Gun Control.” In the article it was noted that Bloomberg’s comment was made on NBC’s Meet the Press and also noted that His Honor is a Political Independent and longtime advocate for gun control.

That advocacy is pure liberal socialism and ultimately communism, fascism or any of the other far left aligned ‘isms.’ Gun control invariably leads to a tyrannical, despotic government, and Michael Bloomberg is fully aware of that. Though he switched from the Democratic Party in 2001 for the singular purpose of getting elected as the 108th mayor of New York City; he is still of the liberal mentality.

Now why in hell would the 12th richest man in the USA with a net worth around $19.5 BILLION. He is a minor George Soros with the same goal; CONTROL. He is no different from any other despotic rich narcissist, control anything he can. An Independent can and does change colors like a chameleon and picks off another bug that offends him. When the Republicans differed with you on some issues, you, an Independent with a pile of greenbacks simply gave the GOP the finger and warped further left.

Let’s get one thing straight Michael, you and your liberal communistic buddies WILL NOT, I repeat, WILL NOT achieve the gun control to which you aspire. Every man or woman with a weapon is not a potential assassin in the fashion of Jared Lee Loughner. You and all those who would be a Hitler, Stalin or Mao; get this through your thick arrogant skull, The Second Amendment will never get repealed and the Fourth Amendment gives me the right to use my .45 to prevent any encroachment on my space.

In answer to your stupid assertion that a congresswoman getting shot is sufficient reason to attempt to take control of all the guns. Well, it is NOT and it will not happen and you can take that to the bank, Michael. End of story. You may have had a valid argument if you were assassinated, but since you haven’t been, you don’t.
