Even the author of the BuzzFeed piece they refer to admits Adam Gadahn has no idea how American gun laws work.
Via Conn Carroll:
This morning on NBC, Joe Scarbarough continued his relentless campaign for more gun control by repeating the false propaganda of American-born al Qaeda spokesman Adam Gadahn.
From Morning Joe:
Joe Scarborough: This is what al Qaeda has to say, yeah listen to this.
Mika Brzezinski: Yeah, we’ll show you something and then we’ll let you talk. You know your background check system is weak when even al Qaeda makes a video pointing out how easily attainable guns are in the U.S. The website BuzzFeed pointed out this 2011 video by American-born al Qaeda spokesman Adam Gadahn who is among the FBI’s most wanted terrorists. Take a look.
Adam Gadahn: In the west you’ve got a lot at your disposal. Let’s take America as an example. America is absolutely awash with easily obtainable firearms. You can go down to a gun show at the local convention center and come away with a fully automatic assault rifle [false -.ed], without a background check [false -.ed], and most likely without having to show an identification card [false -.ed]. So what are you waiting for?
