On Thursday, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down a New York anti-gun law that restricted concealed carry in the state. Democrats naturally responded with anger, but one of the most triggered leftist voices was ex-MSNBC anchor Keith Olbermann, who took his rage to the next level. He demanded that states simply ignore the Court’s ruling.

Mediaite reports:

In a 6 – 3 decision the court struck down a New York state law on concealed carry, prompting strong reactions from both Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY) and President Joe Biden, as well as other officials.

But where the governor vowed to take her state’s fight into legal and legislative directions, Olbermann advised a more anarchic approach: just don’t listen.

“It has become necessary to dissolve the Supreme Court of the United States,” the former lots of things Olbermann said. “The first step is for a state the ‘court’ has now forced guns upon, to ignore this ruling.”

The added “Why and how do think you can enforce your rulings?” was a nice touch, totally ignoring the structure of government and the Constitution which both grant the court the authority to make such rulings and the executive branch of the federal government the power to enforce them.

However, Twitter users responded to his argument with humor:

  1. Okay so if they rule to keep Roe we should ignore that too, Didn’t they rule gays could marry and states couldn’t stop it? There’s also gun laws that they have upheld restricting gun ownership. You what let’s just ignore all laws……moron!

  2. What’s Olbermann’s platform now? He was fired from ESPN twice, from Al Gore’s Current TV, and MSNBC. The guy is toxic.

  3. OBERMAN NEEDS MEDICAL HELP!! HE IS OBVIOUSLY INSANE WITH MENTAL ISSUES!! NO IDIOT THE LAWS WILL BE FOLLOWED BECAUSE WE WILL NOT ALLOW YOU TO INFRINGE ON THIS SO GO GET HELP!!!

  4. What Olbermann is saying is that it’s okay when the Supreme Court rules against the Constitution, but when it upholds it, it needs to be abolished.
    Olbermann desperately needs to get back on his Prozac…

  5. HERR Olbermann knows nothing about guns and little about sports. His derangement is a “qualification” for a job at MSLSD. Just look at Morning Joke who, at one time, was a fairly sensical Republican congressman but is now crazy as a bedbug!
