Hypocrite David Hogg admits that he’s been shooting guns with his FBI dad since 4th grade

Gun-control zealot David Hogg has accidentally proven himself to be a total hypocrite.

Despite spending his days calling for more gun restrictions, including a ban on so-called “assault weapons,” it turns out the guy likes playing with guns himself. And not just any guns, but guns far more deadly than so-called “assault weapons.”

He likes playing with literal submachine guns, as he explained in a now-viral Twitter post.

“People think I have never seen, touched or shot a gun. That’s bullshit. I’ve been shooting guns, including my dads MP5 (a literal submachine gun) from the FBI since I was in 4th grade. I knew how to clean, disable, load and shoot all our guns before I went to middle school,” he wrote.

Look:

He was trying to prove that he knows what he’s talking about regarding guns. But all he managed to prove, critics say, is that he’s a blazing hypocrite.

After all, the MP5 gun he said he has been “shooting” is a hardcore submachine gun.

“Probably the most popular series of submachine guns in the world, it functions according to the proven roller-delayed blowback principle. Tremendously reliable, with maximum safety for the user, easy to handle, modular, extremely accurate and extraordinarily easy to control when firing – HK features that are particularly appreciated by security forces and military users worldwide,” according to its producer, Heckler & Koch.

“There are now well over 100 variants of the MP5 available to cover the large number of different tactical requirements for a wide variety of users. whether on land, on the water or in the air – The MP5 is universally applicable, making it usable in all areas and under all conditions.”

Why would someone need a gun for “land,” “water,” or “air?” Because the gun’s designed for the military!

“The MP5 was, for a time, the weapon of choice for US Counter Terrorist units such as Delta Force and DEVGRU as well as Navy SEAL boarding teams. … MP5s, of one flavor or another, are still used by US SOF units, particularly for personal protection and covert operations,” according to AmericanSpecialOps.com.

“Various US Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) teams also use the MP5, as do some military tactical teams such as USMC Special Reaction Teams (SRT).”

This is a pretty hardcore weapon that would probably be classified as a so-called “assault weapon.” One that’s reportedly fully automatic.

Yet Hogg, the young man who wants “automatic weapons” banned, is bragging about shooting one? Critics were not pleased by the blatant hypocrisy.

Look:

Note what the latter Twitter user wrote: “Your dad lets you shoot his department weapon? Something that’s illegal for the average citizen to possess?”

This is another point critics zeroed in on. It clearly wasn’t legal or appropriate for his father to let him play with a government-issued weapon.

For a guy who bellows day in and day out about the need for more gun laws, Hogg sure seems to have no problem breaking the laws that already exist.

And therein lies the crux of it, of course. Members of the right have long argued that what America needs is more and better enforcement of its current gun laws versus the introduction of new overburdensome gun laws …
