Sheriff David Clarke: Put Semi-Automatic Rifles On The U.S. Seal

Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke was overdue for bringing embarrassment upon himself and Milwaukee, so he made up for lost time while speaking at the annual NRA (National Redneck Association) convention this weekend:


From Raw Story:

“You know, the one with the American bald eagle holding an olive branch in one claw and arrows in the other,” he said. “We should take those arrows out of the eagle’s claws and replace them with a semi-automatic rifle, preferably one that shoots M-855 ammunition.”

The seal, which was first used in 1782, is kept in the Secretary of State’s office. According to the State Department, the olive branch and the arrows “denote the power of peace & war.”

Clarke, who accused single-parent black households of being the “number one” cause of black fatalities at the hands of police earlier this year, also described himself as a “bitter clinger” — a reference to President Barack Obama’s statement in 2008 regarding voters who “get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment.”

“There is nothing else I would rather hold in my hand when fighting government tyranny than a Bible in my left hand that I use to swear to uphold the Constitution, and in my right hand a Winchester rifle, a symbol of freedom and liberty in the United States of America,” Clarke said.
Of course, this is coming from the same nimrod that thought it would be a good idea to use public tax dollars to push his pro-gun agenda, which ended up with the predictable results of people using his ads as an excuse for their own criminal behavior.

Expecting rational discourse from someone like Clarke is just asking too much.
