Cow manure and Shakedown posters: How to answer Jesse Jackson

By Michelle Malkin  •  August 30, 2007 02:31 PM

Jesse Jackson’s anti-gun protest came and went this week. But I bet you didn’t hear about this. One gun shop targeted by the race hustler didn’t sit by quietly:

A northwest suburban gun manufacturer was the focus yesterday as two high-profile Chicago clergy leaders led a demonstration outside the plant.

Revs. Jesse Jackson and Michael Pfleger, along with about 150 anti-gun violence protesters, were met by dozens of Lake Barrington residents and pro-gun enthusiasts when they arrived outside of D.S. Arms gun manufacturer.

This was the fifth anti-gun demonstration organized by Jackson and Pfleger. The previous protests were held outside of gun shop in Riverdale and Melrose Park. This time the duo wanted to up the ante.

“We do not manufacture guns in American cities. They come from places like this. Chicago is voted gun dry. We want Barrington to vote gun dry,” Jackson told supporters as pro-gun supporters countered that they had the right to exercise the Second Amendment — the right to bear arms.

D.S. Arms, a 20-year-old institution, manufactures semi-automatic assault rifles and does not sell to the public. They have about 20 clients, consisting of law enforcement and the military, said Michael Danworth, legal counsel for the company.Gun advocates sent a foul message to Jackson and his supporters.

In addition to enlarged posters of the book cover Shakedown: Exposing the Real Jesse Jackson hanging outside the plant, cow manure was spread in the middle of the road reserved for the rally and march. The area had to be cleaned before the protest began. When asked if the D.S. had knowledge of why the manure was on the road, an attorney for the company said no, but speculated as to why it was there.

“When you have got what we see in Rev. Jackson coming out here and promoting disinformation, to us that stinks to high heaven,” Danworth told reporters.

Dang, that’s good dung-slinging.

    Running into a lot of BS when Jesse Jackson is around is pretty much to be expected.

    If I were to type how my family felt about Jesse Jackass my computer would implode. Let me just repeat a line from another thread.

    If it looks like poop and smells like poop …It must be poop. :)

    This company doesn’t even sell to the public, but to law enforcement and the military. And these morons want to disarm them? Stupid. (By the way, I’m for the public exercising their Second Amendment rights as well.)

    Can someone explain to me how they could tell the real BS from the Jackson BS? … They are pretty much one and the same aren’t they?

    Easy enough, DL - you can detect the Jackson BS at a much further distance.

    One stinks and gets all over everything, and the other comes from a cow.

    We’re not insulting cows. Actually other than milk and steaks, manure is my favorite cow product. . . .and my least favorite “racist/semi-religious troublemaking thinks he’s a preacher” by-product.

    To bad Bill Oreilly is on vacation, if this story protesting a gun manufacturer that makes weapons for Military and law enforcement then throw in the manure, I’d be hard pressed to think it wouldnt make the “most ridiculous” item of the day segment.

    I bet that hurt your fingers typing. I hurt my eyes reading it - LOL.

    Ya know, his body guards are armed. What kind of crap is that? The Rev-rund Jackson will not trust GOD for his protection.

    Somehow, Jackson walking through manure is a bit redundant is it not?

    Jackson’s ‘career’ is in deep dung, maybe this is his last gasp (or other bodily emission). Congrats to all businesses and law-abiding gun owners that are willing to knock the cow chip off his shoulders :)

    The panel that Gov. Kaine assembled after the VA Tech massacre announced their findings yesterday and one recommendation was to ban all weapons from college campus’s. It was then pointed out that Va Tech had such a ban in place. My question is how did Cho have a gun while there? Didn’t he get the word? Liberals just don’t see the irony do they?

    Jesse will be sounding off in full force about this shortly.

    I was wondering where was the Rev-rund Jackson. Neither he or the Rev-rund Sharpton found any time or reason to lead any protesters regarding the slaughter of those three college students by illegal immigrants. I guess they need a cause that is more tuned to the democratic platform. So much for caring about the rights of blacks to live, it is so much more important for the Democrates to win.

    Personally, It would have been nice to have the cow manure scuplted into an efigy of Jesse Jackson with something stating that it was art.
