NRA's Ted Nugent: Jewish Supporters Of Gun Safety Laws Are "Nazis In Disguise" (updated)

Last edited Tue Feb 9, 2016, 05:30 PM - Edit history (1)

Source: Media Matters

National Rifle Association board member Ted Nugent responded to backlash over his posting of an anti-Semitic image on Facebook by calling Jewish people who support gun safety laws "nazis in disguise."

(snip)

Nugent was criticized in the media for his post and condemned by civil rights group the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), which described Nugent's image as "conspiratorial anti-Semitism." He was also denounced by the Simon Wiesenthal Center, with Associate Dean Rabbi Abraham Cooper stating, "Ted Nugent has every right to advocate against gun control laws. However he won't be getting a free pass for his anti-Semitic bigotry."

Nugent responded to backlash with a subsequent Facebook post where he asked "What sort of racist prejudiced POS could possibly not know that Jews for guncontrol are nazis in disguise?" Responding to the charge that he is an anti-Semite, Nugent wrote, "Meanwhile I adjust my yamika at my barmitzva playing my kosher guitar"

Nugent is showing his true colors, or he's on a bender. Meth probably.



Update:

His supporters have weighed in, and Ted Nugent "likes" their comments.

Have to wonder about an organization that gives a draft-dodging pedophile a platform to spew this kind of bile......no, on second thought, I really DON"T wonder about the NRA--it's pretty clear what they are. They are what their leaders are. Res ipsa loquitor.

Is that true? If so, his dad must be crying in his grave at his draft-dodging hate-filled son.

Sorry, Ted, this sounds like you're making up some family history.

around the neck of every single person who has sought out his support - start with sarah palin and next go to the clown that brought him to the state of the union. Then go to the NRA where he sits on the board and ask them to explain themselves. That post is repulsive.

He does see one every time he looks in a mirror

Oh, I get it - on edit - you are saying Ted is a Nazi , he sees himself in a mirror, and doesn't realize his own hate and bigotry . Sorry for my lack of wit on that. Good one.

Some surprising responses over there....

Too bad some of them didn't get the memo that conservatives are now supposed to be pro-Israel.

That doesn't say anything about Ted himself.

But a tasteless remark about yamikas, barmitzvas and what's kosher says a lot.
