Colbert to NRA’s LaPierre: ‘You, sir, are f*&ked in the head’

On Wednesday night’s edition of “The Colbert Report,” host Stephen Colbert talked about recent gun safety measures that the government has proposed and how they prove that the real victims in America’s shooting tragedies are guns themselves. He also directed some stinging words to the NRA head Wayne LaPierre.

Colbert opened the segment by saying that sometimes he thinks it would be better just to move to an armed citadel somewhere, because “make no mistake, they are coming for our guns.”

He continued, “And we freedom-loving gun-lovers are totally defenseless. Other than, you know, the guns.”

“Gun control talk,” he said, is everywhere, for reasons he doesn’t want to get into because it would undermine his position.

President Barack Obama has even appointed “Reich Marshal Biden” to head up a special gun control task force, which he fears will only lead us down the slippery slope to jackbooted Power Point presentations.
