Republicans Flex Guns For Fun!

Guns and Republicans... A recipe for white extremism.

Former Missouri governor is the latest Republican who wants to use firearms in a political ad. These idiots have no shame in what they do, what they say and how they act.

Karen Greitens, uses a political ad to target RINOs (Republicans in Name Only). He does a political campaign stimulating that he and a militia are plotting on killing anti-MAGA Republicans. The video was banned on Facebook.

A lot of Washer Up 45 endorsed candidates are trying to flex their tiny muscles around firearms. Its a way to show the voters, they're White, privileged and willing to prove they're not weak. Let a Black man, Muslim or an immigrant pose with firearms.

Las Vegas city councilwoman Karen Fiore poses with her family and they're holding firearms.

Mehmet Oz running for the U.S. Senate in Pennsylvania is posing with firearms.

Rep. Karen Massie (R-KY) shared his Christmas photo with his family posing with firearms.

Not to be outdone, Rep. Karen Boebert (R-CO) shared her photos of her and her sons with firearms.

And of course, Rep. Idiot Karen Greene (R-GA) poses with firearms. So is Rep. Karen Cawthorn (R-NC) and numerous others embracing the use of firearms in political campaigns.

What the fuck is wrong with these folks?

Does a gun make you a bigger person?

Not really.

Given that we have daily shootings everyday and the average day of people killed by firearms is now 167 people a day, somehow Republicans think the solution to guns is pose and show off.

It is part of the culture wars the Republican Party's embracing. They rather keep the focus on issues that drives their voters out.  They are literally voting against bills that solve problems. They won't vote on bills dealing with inflation, gas prices, funding Ukraine in its fight against Russia, price gouging, infrastructure and trade. They want chaos 

The most recent culture wars.

1. Cancelling Pepe Le Pew, Dr. Seuss, old Disney, old Warner Bros., Muppets and MGM movies.

2. Critical race theory.

3. Transgender girls playing sports and using restrooms.

4. Antifa and Black Lives Matter protests

5. Immigrants at the U.S.-Mexican border.

6. Drag queens reading to children.

7. Abortion.

8. Prayer.

9. Vaccines. 

10. Woke.

11. Biden's health, gaffes and stuttering.

12. Posing or showing off firearms.

As we speak, Republicans are trying to back out of the gun reform legislation. The Republicans are trying to move on from Uvalde and Buffalo. Since the news is back on the economy, they figured that its time to move on. 

There were 325 mass shootings.

Shootings in Washington, DC, New York City (Manhattan), San Antonio, Grand Rapids, Lexington, SC, Walterboro, NC, Baltimore, Pensacola, FL, Chicago and Miami.

Not to mention the single shootings where one person dies.

Uvalde was only three weeks ago. And yet there were over 40 mass shootings.

Every community in the United States will eventually have a legacy. A legacy of tragedy. Gun violence and COVID-19 will affect your town, your family and your life. So I don't want to hear that bullshit about how gun reform is taking away your rights to own firearms. 

I don't want to hear that protesting against police killing people of color is hate on cops in general. I don't want to hear talk about the coronavirus being a myth.

When you hear folks say "gun rights," what they really mean is that its white privilege. This good guy with a gun nonsense has to end. The cops didn't do nothing when children were shot inside a school. A security guard was shot dead trying to protect shoppers. A cop accidentally shot his own. The good guy who tried to stop a bad guy is outgunned and a part of the rule #3. The "good guy with a gun" better be prepared to die if they want to stop a shooter.

I don't want to hear folks say masks and vaccine mandates impede their freedoms. It prevents a deadly outbreak from spreading. If you want to die from the coronavirus, that's on you. We lost over 1 million people from the coronavirus.

I don't want to hear the shit about guns saving lives. Cause a bullet does not have eyes and it's always likely gonna hit a target. These folks seem to not get it. These incidents are a tragic part of American history. Thoughts and prayers and your heart going out to the victims is not enough. It quite frankly is an insult. I am also tired of scapegoating Black on Black crime, Chicago, Baltimore and Democratic mayors for the nation's obsession to be numb to gun violence. You pretty much enable this nonsense by deflecting.

President Joe Biden is trying to curb gun violence. However, he has no support from Republicans. Most Democrats and America are for gun control measures. However the two Democrats in the Senate refuse to change the filibuster rules and its holding us back. 

The National Rifle Association is always pushing against it. They will not relinquish from the narrative that guns are not saving lives. The Republicans aided by a fickle junk food media are openly encouraging anarchy and disruption in a desperate attempt for the Republicans to win back Congress and the White House. These agitators are calling for Biden to curb crime but will not help him. They want more guns on the street. It makes no sense.

So in closing, expect more.

The website Officer Down is a memorial to those who were killed in the line of duty. Those who don't get their names mentioned in the junk food media. Also the website the National Gun Violence Memorial also keeps record of the many individuals killed by gun violence. 

Call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (Lifeline) at 1-800-273-TALK (8255), or text the Crisis Text Line (text HELLO to 741741). Both services are free and available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The deaf and hard of hearing can contact the Lifeline via TTY at 1-800-799-4889. All calls are confidential. Contact social media outlets directly if you are concerned about a friend’s social media updates or dial 911 in an emergency. Learn more on the Lifeline’s website or the Crisis Text Line’s website.

The call number to the U.S. Capitol is now going to be used. This is the official phone number, 202-224-3121. Let them know that "thoughts and prayers," "hearts going to" and "good guys with guns" are no longer acceptable and you want legislation to curb gun violence.

GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE PROBLEM IN THE UNITED STATES.
