Rules for Thee, Not for Me

The rising crime rate in Los Angeles is a hot-button issue in this year’s race for Los Angeles mayor. And the issue just hit closer to home for one candidate.

Democratic Congresswoman Karen Bass said Saturday that her home was burglarized.

“Last night, I came home and discovered that my house had been broken into and burglarized,” the Bass campaign said in a statement. “LAPD was called, and I appreciate their assistance. At this time, it appears that only two firearms, despite being safely and securely stored, were stolen. Cash, electronics and other valuables were not. It’s unnerving and, unfortunately, it’s something that far too many Angelenos have faced.”

So, let me see if I can get this straight:

- The Dems have been telling us there are too many guns in America, yet a Democrat Mayoral candidate in L.A. has guns.

- The candidate, who was at one time reportedly on the list for consideration as a Veep candidate for Biden, claims the guns were "safely and securely stored", but thieves had no problems locating and removing them.

- She probably had firearms training when she was hanging with Castro and the Venceremos Brigade in Cuba. :rolleyes:

- Headscratcher - the thieves took the guns and nothing else, even though this "former" communist lives in a $2MM home. Really? Some might think that this sounds like an inside job. Interesting that one of the central themes of the L.A. mayoral race is crime.

Absolutely fascinating the various hypocrisies that can be found in this story. Gonna keep an eye on this one.

Rules don't apply to your Dear Leader, it appears. BTW, how long, do you think, before he's behind bars, where he rightly belongs?

A feeble attempt at whataboutism and deflection from the liar, the cheat, the crook and the traitor.

BTW, her home valued at $2MMis quite average for the urban areas of CA such as the LA area, SD, Bay Area and now even Sacto. Will be impossible to find a single family home for under $1MM, average homes are all around $1.5MM

As for calling her a Commie, that's a typical fascist comment.

Assuming an awful lot without any proof or evidence there Spanky, but then again, it's the Reich-Wing way :rolleyes:

I have owned guns for over 50 years and have 8 of them now and am unabashed supporter of enhanced gun control (FWIW, none are autoloading). Similarly, I enjoy the occasional drink, but don't supported unfettered access to alcohol. I owned a Porsche for 10 years, but support speed limits.

Reasonable limits are the key and the laws concerning gun ownership are unreasonably lax IMO (and I'm a range safety officer at my gun club, an NRA Distinguished Expert in smallbore and taught Rifle & Shotgun Shooting Merit Badge to Boy Scouts for several years).

AFAIK, there aren't any prominent Democrats who oppose private ownership of firearms by responsible adults in the home. In other words, your contrived controversy isn't actually a controversy, but more stupid infotainment from wingnut media that you credulously glom on to.

That's the thing. We don't have to go looking for wingnut media infotainment when our man whell brings it to us. Thanks whell ;)

An A for effort.

Nothing says it better than a cartoon, idea that an AR-15 is a bottle opener.
