Thank you for doing the research so I did not have to. Now why didn’t TPM put this information in the piece? Pretty lazy reporting if you ask me.

Official motto?
I don’t know about bathtubs, but here in Tucson, there’s a vicious ladder in my garage, just waiting for me to get distracted and lose my footing. Guess I’d better hotfoot it to the gun store and buy a couple of semiautomatic pistols so I can hose down that murderous ladder with fifty calibers. And just to be safe, I’ll do the same thing to my traitorous bathtub. Come to think of it, I have some large appliances that have been looking at me funny, too.

It was only a few weeks ago that the NRA was pushing that, not only should guns be taught in school, but if you don’t pass your gun test, you should be held back a grade.

Just remember its a little harder to hit a moving target. And those appliances are running

If Tucker Carlson’s remarks make you angry, please consider joining MomsDemandAction.org and help us fight for better gun laws and make guns less accessible to small children.

Sadly, he is about as deeply ensconced in the right wing welfare machine as anyone can get. He will only stop receiving right wing welfare payments when he dies…
…because nobody else would even consider hiring him.

Guy I work with lost two fingers and a thumb to a table saw last week. And he has guns!
Guess he needs to buy more to protect himself.

Yep, table saws are probably the most dangerous of all household power tools. Almost lost a finger tip myself.
In the war against common sense gun regulations and personal responsibility, Tucker regards accidental shootings in the home – including those involving children – as acceptable collateral damage.

This guy has become a complete and total whore to the FOX agenda.
His father is spinning in his grave. At least he tried to show a LITTLE perspective and independence.
This is what happens when you are “born on third base and are convinced you hit a triple.”
That’s undoubtedly not true, but even if it were, Carlson is a fucking idiot.
Does Tucker not understand that both are due to negligence?
We warn adults never to leave children alone in the bathtub, but we can’t warn them to lock up their guns???
Is that bow tie cutting off the blood supply to his brain?

Not true. About 87 little kids die each year in America from drowning in the bathtub. 10,000 kids are shot each year in America. A whole lot more than 87 are accidental. Tucker just pulls this stuff out of his . . . . . . . .

Thing is, Tucker was born rich. He doesn’t need the dough. For a long time, his niche was spokesboy for the earnest Born on Third and Thought They Hit Homers Why Can’t the Poors Pull Themselves up by Their Bootstraps Like I Did? douchenozzles. When GWB made that toxic, he switched to simple trolling.
It’s all about being able to believe he’s Somebody now.

The fact that this same guy has TERRIBLE vision (he holds his cell phone a good four inches from his face when reading it) probably is part of the explanation.
So, obviously a guy that needs MORE guns.
Some people say Tuckler carries a bathtub on his left hip for self-defense. His right hip has his favorite hammer in a quick-draw holster. Both said to be much deadlier than guns in some circles.
Hammers. Protecting America.
( Brought to you by the NHA - National Hammer Association. Keeping America safe and nailed together since the beginning of time. )
Now all we have left to do is equip all Iraqis with bathtubs. And hammers.
And ironically, he is actually a pretty good poster child for why family dynasties don’t happen all that often. Eventually they spawn some little loser like him, spoil him, and then he proceeds to burn through the family fortune.
Or to keep with your analogy, he was born on third and thinks the best way to get to home is to run backwards to second and first.
