If you’re watching “Morning Joe” this morning, then this is probably your reaction:

Omg Morning Joe is hitting the stupid HARD this morning.

Joe and the crew explained that people who own AR-15s and the like really just harbor some fantasy of eventually going to war with the U.S. government:

Transcript via Raw Story:

“There’s only one reason for people to have these weapons in their hands,” Scarborough said. “Only one reason, and it’s only one — (but) they will not say it in a radio debate or a TV debate. It’s because they think the government is coming to get them and they want to have a stockpile of weapons, and so it’s to kill American soldiers or members of the American government.”

This from a guy who got his start on TV representing these very people in what he called “Scarborough Country.”

I’d like to hear what @Peggynoonannyc and @JoeNBC think about making it easier to commit people if they’re a danger to the public.

Come on @JoeNBC. I know plenty of people with AR-15’s and they’ve never shot a human being. That’s a silly thing to have said.

So @Morning_Joe has descended into a circle jerk of inanity. All of them. @JoeNBC @WillieGeist @morningmika @mikebarnicle @Peggynoonannyc
