Jorge Amselle is a writer for the firearms industry, such as Tactical-Life.
During conversations at an industry event in Florida both Thursday night and Friday morning he stated to me, with a number of other industry professionals present and listening, that he Supported Hillary Clinton for President and was going to vote for her. He felt other issues such as immigration (he's Hispanic) were more important than the Second Amendment Stated Obama hadn't been bad for the 2A and Hillary would be basically a third term. He stated he would rather see Hillary Clinton appoint justices to the Supreme Court and not Trump. He stated he was not a single-issue voter and the 2A was not at the top of his list. Jorge can vote for anyone he wants. It's his right. However, his readers have a right to know Jorge Amselle both supports Hillary Clinton for President, plans to vote for her. Hillary is well known for her outspoken plans to destroy the Second Amendment. And he places other issues, such as immigration above the Second Amendment. I have been a member of the firearms industry since 1998. I can't believe a member of the firearms press would openly support Hillary Clinton for President. In my opinion supporting Hillary Clinton for President in this election and supporting her picks for the Supreme Court are much worse than what Jim Zumbo, Jerry Tsai or Dick Metcalf did...... He is another Team Wendy....... I went back and forth with him, with other writers such as Tim Yan, Todd Jaderborg, Richard Venola, Neal Shera and even my employer present, and made my thoughts known to him in a crystal clear manner. What are your thoughts? |
|
If I made my living in an industry as unforgiving as this one, I'd be more careful about letting that sort of opinion cross my lips.
|
|
My thoughts? FJA
He is obviously a single-issue voter, it just ain't 2A. la raza |
|
|
We really need to have a sticky for all the people we shouldn't support or buy from
|
|
He can vote for whomever he wishes.
He can also be recognized as a traitor to the 2A. Fuck him. |
|
|
He chose criminal activity with govt complicity over the Constitution.
Sedicious traitor. May the free markey destroy his shit. |
|
I don't know of him but, FHRC and he can go _________.
Aloha, Mark |
|
|
Fuck him
Does his employer know? Not that it means much, as I don't know a single person who knows of him but if you say stupid shit you should win stupid prizes |
|
|
Was it a discussion, like a public round table or something, OP?
Or was it over lunch in a social conversation or the like? If the latter, no matter how odious his views, I think you're out of line, unless you told him it was your intent to broadcast his observations to the world. |
|
You either support the whole Bill of Rights; or you don't.
And all traitors should be hung, until dead, in public; upon conviction, of course. |

Stated Obama hadn't been bad for the 2A View Quote Not for lack of trying. |

He is free to his opinion...same as elections, opinions have consequences.
Sad to know we have traitors behind the wire. ![]() |

Friday Morning, he started it again and during our conversation with other industry people present I made it clear that what Zumbo, Metcalf and Tsais had said was not as bad in the eyes of the industry and he could have walked it back at any time. He was given multiple opportunities to walk away, walk it back, drop it. Other industry professionals who were present all made the comment, "You gave him multiple chances to drop it, walk it back or change what he was espousing." He referred to people being mad on his Facebook about his views which he is very open about. He is in no way trying to keep it a secret. |

The time for respecting the position of antis is long past. They have no qualms about using anything and everything to take our rights. Expose these people for what they are. In this case an industry writer who would trade the 2nd amendment for amnesty and open borders. I can't find any fucks to spare the guy. |
|
Sooooooooo, he is ok with illegal immigration being ignored and the 2nd amendment being destroyed. What do I think? I think he's an idiot. |

Sounds like the latter. If so, he didn't even give dude a courtesy of a published hit piece. |

Then he's a dumbass, my wife came from Vietnam 9 years ago on a student visa and supports Trump and his immigration platform more than anyone I could ever imagine.
Curious, he wrote this? http://dailycaller.com/2016/06/08/gun-owners-hillary-will-soon-say-if-you-like-your-guns-you-can-keep-your-guns/ |

A quick glance through Google shows the following. He has a blog "Guns & Tacos". He has written articles and publications for the following: Gun Digest, Personal Defense World, Guns Magazine, Tactical Life, Gun News, Gun Test, The Weekly Standard (yeah the RINO's Hymnal) Harris Publications and the NRA. Fuck this guy with a rusty Pulaski.

People in every way of life, in every profession, are on both sides of the isle. These people are just the minority.

I never heard of him, so it will be hard to boycott him.
Is someone getting a riot together? |
|
Fuck that guy is my first thought.
I don't mind people that are pro 2A democrats voting for democrats but they need to vote for pro 2A democrats. If they can't find any, then they should run themselves. |
