Video: Pamela Geller on the Dr. Drew Show Debating Gun Control

This one you have to see to believe. Lisa Blum, the gun control advocate, should be writing fiction …*headslap* she already is for the left. She doesn’t exaggerate, she lies. The idea that 30,000 children die from gun accidents is a pure fiction, a whopper of a lie – it’s under 200, terrible yes, but tens of thousands die every year in car accidents. Does the left want to ban cars?

Here is the story we are discussing: After his parents stopped for gas early Wednesday, the young boy scrambled out of his child seat, found a gun police say was left in the car by his father and fatally shot himself in the head. Tacoma police said his father put his pistol under a seat and got out to pump gas while the mother went inside the convenience store. The boy’s infant sister, who also was in the car, was not injured.

The Pierce County medical examiner has identified the boy as Julio Segura-McIntosh of Tacoma.

Like a typical leftist she interrupts
