"Comic" Bill Maher calls for mass shooting of country music stars

Bill Maher, who has a show on HBO that is almost as unwatched as MSNBC, has said something stupid.

Taking a swipe at conservatives on gun control, liberal comic Bill Maher joked that a mass shooting should take place at the Country Music Awards.

“Now that liberals have forwarded their agenda by inserting a mass gay wedding into the Grammys, conservatives must match them tit-for-tat by having a mass shooting at the Country Music Awards,” Maher said Friday during his HBO program, “Real Time with Bill Maher.”

Is this really the best he can do? Yes, I suppose it is.

Frankly, it’s hard to get mad a such an impotent comment that has no “bite” to it. An effective joke (if that is what this was supposed to be) is biting because it has a ring of truth to it. All Maher is doing here is showing his own hatred and intolerance of conservatives.

It’s sad but typical comment from an eliminationist anti-gun leftist.
