Trump Calls For Gun Confiscation In Fox News Rant: Cops Should ‘Stop And Frisk And Take Their Gun Away’

Everybody calm down. There's a reason that the 2Aers won't get mad about this.

This is as racist of a dog whistle as you can get. Lots of people are aware "stop and frisk" really means "stop and frisk minorities and plant drugs and weapons when you can."

So it's perfectly in line with the "law and order" bullshit. Don't expect a lot of anger about these comments. To the shitheads, these comments are directed at the "right" people. Cops wouldn't stop and frisk them, they think, because cops know that they're a law abiding citizen by the color of their skin.

Racists gonna fuckin racist, man. First gun control we ever got in the USA was because white people got freaked out by black people with guns.

They know he means "take guns from black people". They support that.

OP and everyone in the comments are pretending he's talking about the 2nd amendment but he's just talking about good old fashioned racism.

Republicans: You can never take our guns!

Trump: Take their guns!

Republicans:

So what you're saying is... you're coming for their guns? Just making sure. OK.

The NRA is awfully quiet all of a sudden…

The media and the people often do gymnastics to "translate trump" and interpret his dog whistle gibberish... STOP.

Don't read into this, read it on it's face and report it out to whoever - "trump wants to take your guns. Period."

Its black and white , right from his weird mouth with the "old man foam" frothing up on the sides.

Sounds like the unfiltered 'stream of thought' of an 8 year old.

I feel like I lose iq from reading this

TRUMP: First of all, you — I know the people in Chicago. I know the police, because I built the building there. I spent a lot of time — the building, it was a — it’s a great building, a really great building.

How are serious people, seriously voting for this guy again?

It won't matter to Republicans, they'll even agree with it, because to them, they know he's talking about bad people, and by "bad people", he's of course referring to low-life black and latino thugs, people who really shouldn't be having guns (in their minds). They just don't want their own guns taken away, they don't care if other people have their guns taken away.

so, once again, Trump is talking about putting in place 2A restrictions. I guess he wants to be like Reagan.

So he's calling for en mass racial profiling for a gun round up essentially only in Chicago. Jfc. This man is deranged. Bruh this would never happen.

Furthermore, can this man not put a sentence together? Like at all?

Imagine him trying to order something at McDonald's drive through. He'd be like " I'd like a big Mac, great burger, excelle... ya know, the great people of Texas, their cattle, best cattle and let me tell you.. also an apple pie, have, have you ever had an apple from Nebraska? Best appl... Anyway so I'm talking to the mayor of Lincoln, Lincoln Nebraska and he says, he says Mr president that apple this apple it's for our troops and the troops are, it's like I tell my kids...... and on and on he goes until the drive through employee commits suicide via dipping head in deep fryer

"Take the guns first, due process later"

stop and frisk was awful but regular Republican voters don't remember it because they've never lived in a city. most of what these idiots talk about has nothing to do with them at all

If they know these people are active criminals they will have no problem citing just cause for arrest and search.

I live in Canada, our gun rules are different than the USA. This week in my city some charges against a dangerous criminal were dropped because the police had a "flagrant disregard for charter rights" (according to the judge) (oir charter rights are similar to American civil rights)

They searched him improperly, and found a loaded, illegal gun. Charges dismissed. If they had handled it properly they could have made the charges stick. What a waste of everyone's time. Police didn't respect his rights because they don't respect my rights.

Every time I read a quote from this idiot it hurts my brain. I could go on about how stop and frisk is a horrible, racist policy that is a violation of basic rights, but just reading anything he says is painful. His speech is so jarring, erratic, and logically flawed. I've listened to average second graders express their thoughts more eloquently than this piece of garbage.

First they came for the imaginary guns of imaginary black criminals, and I said nothing... Because I was also imagining their weapons and crimes and hiding in my little baby coward bunker of a home trying to buy bulletproof pants online that would make people think that maybe I might not have a tiny, weird penis....

Wait it’s not Obama taking the guns!?

Who's 'they'?

What he means is to take them away from people that arent in the cult - that don't agree with, or look like, him and his followers. But eventually the leopard will eat your face too.

No no no, you don't get it, it's the black other guy's gun /s

When you see a guy coming down the street and you can — the police know every one of them. They know their middle name. They know where they live.

Like when we see a convicted felon coming down the street and we know his middle name is “John” and he lives in Palm Beach?

He's so close! Somehow his racism took him down a weird convoluted path and ended up with gun control.

Pretty sure this was on the topic of gun control, he said "take their guns away and go through due process later" but his 2Aer followers don't remember that.

What a racist tiny handed weirdo.

Nice ramble of a second paragraph there.

Those 2nd Amendment lovers? When you're their golden idol, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab 'em by the gussy.

Well trump, it was nice knowing ya (it wasn't) bit you'll never never ever ever ever be president again. Tell the average Americans that you'll take their guns away? You nuts? Tell right wing evangelical Christian redneck gun lover that you'll take their guns away? Are you suicidal?

Anyway, fuck Trump , happy to see him go

The so-called "2A" brainlets support this. Since it is happening to people they hate, it is okay to infringe.

I’m sure that only applies to a) people of a different skin color first, then b) poor white people a distant second.

I doubt Trump's followers will think of this as a breach of their 2A rights. They will likely think that it's black people and bad actors who will have their guns taken for the safety of the boys in blue.

I don't see the inconsistency. This is dripping with dog whistle racism. Whites don't get stopped by cops. Whites are the cops. The 2nd ammendment is for me not for thee

He has said this before and everyone forgot. Wild that the Dem VP is an avid hunter that believes in 2nd amendment, just wants background checks, while the republican candidate wants to confiscate.

Did fox guy really refer to him as "Mr. President" ? Isn't that a bit weird.

Almost NotTheOnion territory here

Oh sweet. Yeah only let whites have guns, I'm sure this will play out perfectly fine

Ermagerd wepen contls!

This last weekend, during the — just prior to the start of the convention, with all the police everything else, do you know that so far, five people have been killed? You don’t read about it because the press doesn’t want to report about it. Five people have been killed in Chicago during the Democrat convention.

He can just make up whatever he likes and they don’t challenge him but what’s new.

To talk about police as being honorable community service members and then Chicago in the same sentence is rather entertaining because that city has a very long history of dirty cops, and I think everyone knows it? That's kind of common knowledge.

They know that the police aren't stopping and frisking THEM so I bet they'd be all for it.

The problem with this sort of thing is that I remember in the 2016 campaign how Trump would go on record saying Highly Objectionable Thing. You'd have the New York Times and such crow that now they've got him, print the statement. Trump wouldn't miss a beat, would just go and say something in complete conflict with the other thing. He didn't bother trying to reconcile the statements.

I don't think that that statement's going to do him any favors, but Trump has said a lot of things on the campaign trail that, if taken at face value, would probably kill his chances as a serious candidate. That didn't happen in the past. I'm skeptical that it will now.

Hey maybe this will make my wealthy white mother OK with the cops taking away her guns

Beto Moment

People who vote for idiot shocked to find out candidate is idiot

Only if they….how should I put it…..don’t look good in spray tan!

That oughta tweak his magats

What are the prevailing sentiments about Bloombergs NY tenure, these days?

This whole "selectively frisking people" schtick was his invention.

Kyle Rittenhouse should have never backed down. Trump wasn't even really pro gun in his first term.

Finally a reason you yanks should vote for the clown
