YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

"Rush Limbaugh took on the controversy surrounding NFL player Jovan Belcher's murder of his girlfriend and subsequent suicide last weekend and criticized what he called "the go-to liberal reaction" to re-examine American gun laws. Limbaugh implied that 'decades of liberalism' had damaged the 'American family' and said examining the "real root of such things" would make "everybody too uncomfortable to hear."

Limbaugh expressed his view that blaming American gun laws was a "cop-out" and an "easy, lazy way" to approach the tragedy"*

Cenk Uygur breaks down Rush Limbaugh's very flawed logic that liberals who caused the fall of "American Values" are to blame for the murder-suicide involving NFL Linebacker, Javon Belcher. Limbaugh can't explain why though, because he would just be called racist.
