Let’s be honest about Bernie Sanders for a minute. The most dangerous thing about this man is that he is one of the most honest politicians in Washington. That’s a hard pill for a lot of conservatives to swallow, but Bernie doesn’t ride on lies, for the most part.
Let’s not conflate things. Bernie is flat out wrong on a number of issues, but when he talks about the merits of socialism or whatever else, he believes what he’s saying. That’s different from most politicians who are aware that they’re lying when they do it.
None of this is an excuse for Bernie. On the contrary, his genuine belief in dangerous policy is his scariest attribute. You can’t change his mind with logic. You can’t talk him off the ledge. He’s convinced that socialism is the only way and only starving to death will ever get him to abandon the idea.
It’s with all of this in mind that we visit Bernie’s gun policies. This video has him directly answering a question about gun confiscation. His answer is as honest as most of his policy. But, the nature of his policy will surprise you (even though you read it in the title).
It’s worth hearing the words come directly from Bernie’s mouth. If only he understood the same concept applies to going into people’s wallets and taking their money . . .
