NBC Sports Host Who Shoots Elephants Compares Critics To Hitler

Of course he does. Tony Makris, the gun-humping NRA lobbyist whom we last saw on the NBC Sports Network shooting an elephant in the face, has recently been dealing with some people who are critical of his decision to shoot an elephant in the face. To Makris, those people are just like Hitler.

Here's Makris defending his actions on an NRA news show. He uses the phrase "animal racism" and talks about how he blows the minds of his critics with a little Socratic jiu-jitsu. "And now they're shocked," he concludes. "And they said but they're so big and special and they're smarter. And I went, you know, Hitler would have said the same thing."

"And I went, you know, Hitler would have said the same thing."

"And I went, you know, Hitler would have said the same thing."

Again, really cool show you have there, NBC Sports.
