“Wouldn’t it make a great statement if we sent in a ridiculously weird character and they sold us a gun anyway?” -Sasha Baron
So these are politically motivated sting videos that Cohen is making?
Uhhhh. That’s what James O’Keefe did with ACORN, Planned Parenthood, Teacher’s Unions, DNC operatives, and the left had a problem with it. They said the videos were “deceptively edited” and prove nothing, yet, here they are producing their lame pale attempt to “O’Keefe” the right.
It’s not working.
“He comes in, off the bat you can see in the video I’m looking like, this guy does not look like a Hungarian immigrant, tight ass leather pants, a beard, it just didn’t fit,” Sweidan said. “The moment his words came out of his mouth I was like this guy is full of s***.”
Sweidan told FOX 11 Cohen said he wanted to buy a gun, but said it with a very odd sounding accent he didn’t find credible.
“I’m looking at the producer and I’m just like am I being fooled right here?” Sweidan said. “And I just kept looking at the guy and I was like you’re Borat, as soon as I said that his eyes just looked at me like, and he did a turn right out the door.”

He should direct his efforts into fooling leftie people and businesses, they are dense enough to fall for his lame disguises. Hell, showtime actually hired him.
The guy got a lot of free publicity and the show still failed miserably to draw viewers when it premiered. Hopefully someone else figures him out and kicks his a$$.
Two problems for boRat:
1. People who sell guns have to be on their toes. If they are caught in a straw man purchase they can go to the big house.
2. In the propaganda film where Micky Moore opens a checking account and then walks out of the bank holding boRat did not know that Mickey eddited out the part that there was a background check, X number of days waiting and the part where Mickey Moore begging the bank to allow him to pick the gun up at the bank instead of at the gun shop. boRat was utterly unprepared for how the process works to buy a gun.
He made a career playing the fool to make people of kind nature look stupid. Turns out he was not playing the fool but rather is the fool and the joke is not on us but rather he is the joke. An old joke at that.
“Showtime told FOX 11 the company has no comment in response to this report.”
LMAO
Somebody needs to kick Cohen’s ass but good. I will tithe to his defense fund.
So his target audience is cynical jaded lefties who don’t even know all the things you have to comply with in order to buy a gun.
Can the children stop “pulling pranks” and please leave the table so that the adults can have a real conversation and make real decisions that will actually have real world consequences?
Did he try this in San Fran? Who would know the difference if the purchaser was for real?

He used to be funny. The more left he got the less funny he got.
Not an expert but perhaps they should have let him start the paperwork than call the ATF on his ass. That would be some must see tv.
Wiredog1837, yes!!!
The guys at my favorite gunshop would have had the guy arrested. They do not fool around at all – there are usually kids around and they do get audited by the State Police often — if you can’t offer legitimate documents you are ushered to the back of the store and held until the police come.
If they don’t know you when you walk in the door they ask for legitimate id right away even before you can look at a gun.
Should have made the azzhole fill out a 4473, and the second he puts anything other then his real name on the form, instant federal firearms charge. Lets see him bullshit his way out of that felony.
@ Hans
I like that store. I would definitely frequent it to support that kind of operation.
Although, the only time I saw the law at my gun store – also a quality ammo and reloading supply store – was when the BATF was looking for trouble and had agents pretending they were customers. Weird as hell and right after Sandy Hook.
The idea it was all a setup to go for our guns became a little too real for me at that moment.
P.S. Oh damn, dirtball. That is exactly what should have happened. You want to play? Batter up!
Any guy named Sasha has to be a fag loser.
@grnberet, actually Sasha is a nickname for Alexander. I don’t think this moron’s full name is Alexander, though.
If he really wanted to do a show on “Who Is America”, he could have just taken his disguise off and talked to the guy.
That would have cut to the chase.
The Dictator was funny. Enough people seem to like Talladega Nights that’s on in syndication ad nauseum. If he wanted to grow as a comedian or a performance artist, whatever, he’d do better to push the buttons of liberals and their prejudices against normal people. But then Showtime wouldn’t have give him a platform.
There is no bravery or edginess in picking on the people who every late night, stand-up, open mic night comedian ridicules. Everyone Hollywood looks down their rhinoplastied noses. Everyone that the media hates.
Give them a dose of Tom Wolfe’s Radical Chic / Mau-Mauing The Flak Catchers treatment and that would be high comedy.
