Why Are Gun Control Lobbyists So Violent?

Don't be this guy!

Robert Blaisdell, 44, of Manchester, New Hampshire is a well-known lobbyist in the New Hampshire Statehouse. Blaisdell is the managing partner in the lobbying firm of Demers, Blaisdell, and Prasol, Inc. Among his many clients are the NH Troopers Association, the NH Police Association, Everytown for Gun Safety, Bank of America, and Walmart.

Why not be this guy? Other than being a lobbyist, his bio make him sound like an upstanding citizen serving on numerous municipal boards and school foundations.

Well, according to The Patch, he was involved in a "domestic disturbance" on the evening of May 2nd.

From The Patch:
(He) was arrested on May 2, 2019, and charged with domestic violence-simple assault, false imprisonment, and criminal mischief. According to court documents and scanner chatter, a large police presence was sent to a Union Street address at around 9 p.m. for an incident that had escalated from a domestic disturbance.

When they arrived and after conducting an investigation, police charged Blaisdell with three counts. They allege that he "knowingly" confined a family member "so as to substantially interfere with their ability to physically movement by holding the laundry room door closed over a period of several minutes" when the person tried to leave the room. Blaisdell is also accused of stepping on the person's hand during the disturbance. Court documents also allege that he grabbed the victim's cellphone and "using his hands in a twisting motion thus cracking the screen and rendering the phone useless, causing damages in excess of $100."
 I wonder if when gun controllers push for more gun control it is because they think most people are violent like them. Hint -- we aren't.

  1. You should have highlighted Bank of America as well as Everytown. If anything, they are more dangerous to our rights.

  2. Another Head of the Everytown Gun Grabbers in Illinois, shot someone who was arguing with her son. No gun owners card, no record of purchase, just another violent criminal gun control freak.

  3. Yep, they don't have the maturity and control to actually OWN a weapon, so they don't want anyone else to have one, so they stay in charge...
