Fox News Channel host Greg Gutfeld argued that the media “fishbowl” “misses the big point” on gun control on Friday’s broadcast of “The Five.”
In reaction to Detroit Police Chief James Craig’s defense of law-abiding citizens carrying guns, Gutfeld said, “you can’t blame people for wanting to protect themselves as they see the reality of law enforcement, that law is enforced only after the law shows up, which could be a problem if you are already dead. So, it’s no surprise good people start packing. Detroit’s a Wild West in need of order, and the people are figuring out what brings it.”
Gutfeld added, “no matter how hard the establishment media tries, they can’t convince good people how bad guns are when they’re in the rights hands. Perhaps the media misses the big point. They do their theorizing from the fish bowl of a well-protected studio and travel to and from work at reasonable hours through tony neighborhoods in secure vehicles. The fine people of Detroit don’t have that luxury, they realize any argument against arming yourself is full of holes, which is not the way they’d like to end up being.”
