NAZI GOP signals time for Civil War.

Like their gun worshipping hero Adolf Hitler, today’s Republicans want to take the country down the Dead Ender path. THIS was during a hearing on STOPPING GUN VIOLENCE AT SCHOOLS!



'Whatever I want with my guns': GOP lawmaker pulls out handguns during House hearing on gun control

Candy Woodall
USA TODAY, June 2, 2022

WASHINGTON – Florida Congressman Greg Steube pulled out multiple handguns during a House Judiciary Committee hearing Thursday aimed at curbing mass shootings.

The Republican congressman appeared by video conference from his Florida home, arguing that Democrats are trying to strip Americans' constitutional right to bear arms by restricting the ammunition they use.

"Don't let them fool you that they're not attempting to take away your ability to purchase handguns," Steube said. "They are using the magazine ban to do it."

The congressman said his Sig Sauer P365 XL comes with a 15-round magazine and would be banned if the Democrats' "Protecting Our Kids Act" passes. The congressman also said the Glock 19 would be banned.

Snip…

The display of weapons added to the tension of a legislative hearing packed with partisan and personal broadsides over an issue that has deeply divided Ameicans (sic).

Continues…

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2022/06/02/greg-steube-guns-house-hearing/7493131001/

Bastard gets a hard-on over blue steel and wants to whip the gun nut masses into a frenzy.

Do you want public safety? Lock up all NAZIs.

Sarah Palin's PAC Puts Gun Sights On Democrats She's Targeting In 2010


By Jeff Muskus
Jan 9, 2011, 11:56 AM EST | Updated Dec 6, 2017

Sarah Palin is targeting -- yes, with gun sights -- House Democrats facing tough reelection fights who voted for health care reform.

Palin's Facebook page now carries a map featuring 20 gun sights, one for each of the Democrats targeted this year by her political action committee SarahPAC. Three of the gun sights, those where incumbent Democrats have already announced their retirement, are colored red.

are those who consistently vote against gun control—especially those refusing to ban assault weapons.

They know who they are.

MSM should take their cameras to each of those politicians, keep the heat on, and publicize how much the NRA contributes to them.

It's not the democrats - it's her own party. Hell, someone unearthed a video of her from two years ago blowing up a Prius that had the word "SOCIALISM" on it. Ugh that woman is vile on every single level.

But then we know there's no connection between mass shootings and easy access to "killing machine" type guns.

This was the kid's way of committing suicide; go out in a blaze of gory that people will remember.
Yes, I deliberately spelled it that way.

This cranky old retired lady ISN’T in a newsroom anymore. But I worked in enough newsrooms to be BEYOND dismayed AND disgusted with the empty-headed pretty-boy and glamour-girl faces on the air now!!!

Now the priority is chasing ratings, NOT the truth. And somehow they’ve granted trump a free pass to EVERYTHING and a get-out-of-jail-free card that he doesn’t even have to buy or steal or make up.

The assassination attempt DOES NOT mean complete absolution from all his lies, crimes, and double-dealings. Seems like that’s all gonna be forgotten, or overlooked this week - as the media folks bend over backwards and turn themselves inside-out and upside-down to avoid and/or try to forget (and try to MAKE YOU forget) the unpunished criminal part that is trump.

Sorry to rant, but - hey - SORRY, but I just HAD TO.
