One can expect to hear any number of ridiculous claims by guests – not to mention hosts – on the far-left MSNBC network; but one talking head recently shared an opinion so unbelievable it actually stood out among the rest of the propagandistic rhetoric.
Christie Hefner, spokesperson for the Center for American Progress, was on the air with pseudo-Republican host Joe Scarborough to share her amazingly obtuse view that climate change is responsible for Chicago’s spike in gun violence.
Climate change – a catch-all term much harder to dispute than “global warming” – has been blamed for almost all of the world’s ills by those on the fringe left. Hefner’s diatribe, however, found a new and baffling way to target Americans for their supposed disrespect of the environment.
Citing some “contributing factors” for the violence, she said “there is a dramatic increase in gun violence when it is warmer and we are having this climate change effect that is driving that.”
Embroiled in a culture of violence and suffering under corrupt leadership, Chicago has plenty of causes for its deadly reputation. A normal fluctuation in global temperature is not one of them, despite Hefner’s emphatic contention.
For his part, Scarborough seemed to realize her point was sufficiently controversial and used the opportunity to take a jab at conservative writers.
Telling her “conservative bloggers across America thank you” for the commentary fodder, he couldn’t resist adding that she “made a lot of people in the basements of their mother’s homes very happy.”
For all the left’s hand-wringing over a perceived bias at Fox News, there is absolutely no comparison to the blatant political prejudice found in the mainstream media. By comparison, I suppose a network daring to actually expose the conservative viewpoint to its audience would seem biased.

She’s a perfect example of why you should not put your head in a micro-wave oven. Maybe all the “heat” coming from the Playboy mansion that she wasn’t getting has her confused. I’ll file her under….Duh….

Gun control will not solve the problem. A change in culture and morals will go a long way towards ending violence against the defenseless. A recent survey by the Barna Group shows that, If you overlaid a map of the Democratic Party strongholds over a map of high crime and violence over a map of people who no longer read and believe the Bible, you would find that they are nearly identical.
Violence is not generally a conservative problem. nor is it a general US population problem. The vast majorities of Americans obey the laws. Violence is a regressive ‘rat cultural problem. Ask yourself, Who conducts the knockout game? Who has flash mobbing of stores? which is more prevailent, white on black violence or black on black violence or black on white/asian/hispanic violence? Look at where the murders and violence are, mainly concentrated large regressive democrat conclaves. It is long past time for the regressive ‘rats and thier low information voters to show some community responsibility, clean up their act and start behaving like adult humans instead of the degenerates they are.
