Now that Rosie O'Donald has joined the cast of the ABC daytime program, 'The View,' we can look forward to being treated to her diatribes about various and sundry Leftist pet peeves, in addition to a good dose or two of Christian-bashing and debunking the values most Americans hold dear. Within a two week period she compared Christians to Islamic Jihadists and proceeded to engage in an argument with a fellow cast member about 2nd Amendment rights.
This takes us back to the year 2002. At that time Rosie was doing her now-cancelled talk show. She broached the subject of gun rights on one of her shows and proceeded to exclaim, 'Anybody who owns a firearm should be thrown into jail, period!'
Those of us who value and hold sacred the rights guaranteed to us by the U.S. Constitution have never forgotten those shocking words. It is estimated that upwards of 80 million Americans own some sort of firearm. Rosie obviously believes that all 80 million of us should be rounded up and thrown into prison. How would we accomplish such a task? Prison camps? Imagine several million Guantanimos scattered all over the country just to house us hardened, dangerous, subversive gun owners!
Rosie stopped short of repeating her call for the imprisonment of gun owners on 'The View,' but strongly reasserted her opinion that gun ownership should be outlawed. This prompted a lively, heated exchange with one of the co-hosts of the show, the end of which came when this co-host stated, 'This is a guaranteed right stated in the U.S. Constitution.' Rosie looked as if she would explode but held her peace.
The day is coming when the powers that be at ABC, as well as the cast of 'The View,' are going to get their fill of this bellowing bag of hot air.
Anyone who believes that owning a gun should be grounds for imprisonment does not deserve a national platform on which to spout these blatantly unAmerican views. Rosie is certainly entitled to her opinion and to state that opinion. She is NOT entitled a national audience in front of which to advocate for the revoking of the basic rights guaranteed in the U.S. Constitution.
