On next week´s show, David Gregory should be on camera seated on a multi-gallon toilet (very un-Green) facing the viewing audience, holding a 32-ounce sugary drink, and pointing the drink menacingly at Mayor ´Red´ (not Blue!) Bloomberg, who will be, most likely, tuning in and hoping to see Gregory bashing another right-winger on ´Meet the Press´.

I´m surprised they haven´t claimed it was a stunt double clip lifted off a movie set.

Perhaps he should next be seen on MSNBC´s lock up

Book him, Dano!

So David Gregory finds out that anti-gun laws don´t stop criminals, but do stop otherwise law-abiding citizens. Sweet!

they probably borrowed one off the security guard.

This is silly. Laws are not needed to regulate the ruling elite. These laws only apply to the proles.

Wonder which poor staffer is going to take the fall for this. You just know that will happen. Can´t have the host showing he has ethics and can take responsibility for his own actions.

They just have to say the film was doctored. That happens a lot on NBC.

Just think, five minutes of work with a hammer and that clip could be pounded into something that would hold twelve ounces of Pepsi. Better outlaw hammers too. This whole incident is simply asinine.

Just trying to imagine what the reaction would´ve been had Wayne LaPierre held up the clip.

So what do you think will happen to him. At most a fine.

This means David Gregory´s criminal behavior was INTENTIONAL. He knew that he was committing a crime with malice of forethought. David Gregory is a criminal and should be prosecuted if there is any justice at all in Washington, D.C.

Prosecute David Gregory and those complicit at NBC News. They are intentional criminals.

He got it from the security office at his kids´ school ... you know, Sidwell Friends, the swanky school where liberal Democrats send their kids while the rest of their plantation Democrats are forced to go to terrible DC public schools.

Or maybe from his personal security detail.

"Just trying to imagine what the reaction would´ve been had Wayne LaPierre held up the clip."

>> This comment gets to the heart of the matter.

Right now there´s a lot of static and noise from the media and political elite, calling the outcry against Gregory´s actions petty, counter productive, while haughtily claiming "the police have more pressing matters to handle," etc.

However, what they forget, ignore, and cover-up is the fact that these laws that they support, the same that Gregory clearly and intentionaly violated, are the very same (I believe to be unconstitutional) laws that have been used to infringe upon the Second Amendment-rights of millions of gun ownders, and have been used to ensnare thousands of erstwhile law-abiding citizens into felony arrests and a criminal record.

If it is Joe Sixpack holding up a similarly empty standard capacity magazine to the Mayor of DC on a street corner, or Barack Obama, etc. while asking "Why would you deny me my God-given rights?" they would be looking at immediate arrest, processing, prosecution (and perhaps a "tune-up" from the likes of the DC Police and/or Capitol Police/Secret Service), along with a black mark on their record that would forever deny them their right to "keep and bear" a firearm.

Not a single soul in the elite media would come to Mr. Sixpack´s defense. No, it is likely they would encourage swift arrest and punishment so as to set an example to the unwashed masses that the political and media elite are immune from such concerns and all that question them must either be criminally minded and/or insane.

Yes the law that Mr. Gregory has violated is ridiculous and Constitutionally dubious. However, that´s exactly the point, isn´t it, and that´s exactly why he should be prosecuted.

Magazine! Magazine! Magazine! Magazine!
Words mean specific things. A clip is not a magazine. Clips are used to load magazines. Magazines are not all the same. The NBC moron was holding a Detachable Box Magazine. There are also internal magazines on many rifles and some pistols and shotguns. There are tubular magazines and rotary magazines. There are belt-fed weapons that use no magazine at all.

These journ-O-list idiots cannot even accurately describe what it is they want to ban. I am weary of firearms illiterates holding forth on subjects of which they are willfully and stubbornly ignorant.

Do some basic research, shite for brains newsreaders.

I guess when you are an "important" newsreader, you think you are above the law.

Gregory should be arrested, and then passed around the cell block!

Do not forget that David is always the smartest man in he room--wherever, whenever etc..

David will need isolation in the DC jail. He may be OK in the federal pen if he joins the Aryan Brotherhood for protection.

I think he ought to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the stupid law.

Monkey-boy David Gregory should make a fine cellmate for Demont and Tyrell.

NBC writes a nice check to the disabled officers fund. In return police decline to press charges against gregory. I´m way too cynical to ever believe gregory would be charged in this matter.

This was a purposeful violation of the law. Prosecute to the fullest extent! These libs have no problem talking the talk, now walk the walk - Prosecute.

I really hope the DC police say they can´t do anything because it´s a First Amendment issue. More likely, NBC will just say the magazine was blocked down to five round capacity.

David is a card carry-in liberal, and this type of behavior is both expected and condoned, he will be protected! Now if it would had been Mr. Wayne LaPierre, the rule book would have suddenly (and mystically) changed...the ole double standard...right out of the Saul Alinsky Handbook!

For the umpteenth time, JournoListers and ALL media pinheads: it´s NOT a ´clip´. It´s a magazine. There is a very important difference. If you don´t know, don´t default to television slang. Look it up.

if you don´t know the difference, you have no right to comment on ANY firearms issues, let alone attempt to pass ridiculous and ineffective laws.

Love it #9!

He broke the law like every other criminal who has a gun. Lock him up.

Publicity stunt.

Jealous of cutie pie Stephie Steppinalloverus.

Monkeyface wants his mug and mugshot on your morning mug.

A prosecution will enhance his Q factor.
He will be able to get into syndication...
like...
Jerry Springer.

This alone shows intent. Isn´t intent all that is needed to prove a violation of law? It also means, even though ignorance of the law is no defense, that they had foreknowledge the action was illegal, and chose to break the law.

I would like to think LaPierre was quietly snickering ti himself in smug satisfaction during the interview,hoping, as happened, someone else called them on it. It would just not have been as good had LaPierre had to do it.

Seems they now have a Second Ammendment Attorney to defend him in case if arrest. Oh, the irony.

A little schaudenfreude goes a long way these days, doesn´t it?

Like the gun owner map, sauce for the gander. Stick that in your magazine and smoke it.

Lastly, now we get to see if he will be treated like anyone else, or one of the priveledged elite. Money dies talk, right?

Money does talk. Sorry for typos, on my phone.

If the NY cops don´t charge Gregory with a crime, then noone else in NY should be charged with the same crime. The same NY law applies to everybody. No exemptions for some tv twit.
