The GOP Think Posing With Guns Makes Them Tough!

They think posing with firearms makes them tough.

President Joe Biden's headaches:

  1. The Karens in the Republican House and Senate.
  2. Gun violence and Congress not doing anything to stop it.
  3. Inflation.
  4. Two Democratic senators and one independent senator who is a democratic socialist.
  5. The members of The Squad and Progressive Caucus.
  6. The junk food media and their never ending dramatizing of world events.
  7. Anti-vaxxers. 
  8. Lawmakers and activists who protest the CDC guidelines during the pandemic.
  9. The endless culture wars that Republicans and media agitators find outrage in.
  10. Washed Up 45 and his minions on Fox, Newsmax, OANN and the internet.
  11. Facebook and TikTok along with the idiots who run it plus the idiots who post on it.
  12. Fox, The Daily Mail, Newsmax and OANN's relentless talk about conspiracies, Hunter Biden and the president's mental capacity and health.
  13. The endless racism towards Biden's allies, Vice President Kamala Harris and former president Barack Obama.
  14. The relentless talk about spending despite the former president's reckless spending and policies that driven debt to all time highs.
  15. The lack of civility towards fellow Americans.
As we are posting, it is reported that Americans are evenly split on which party should maintain power of Congress. 

It is a clear choice: culture wars and fascism vs. civil rights and democracy.

Republicans head to CPAC Texas for another strategic meeting of the misfits. A white nationalist convention with a handful of tokens who are willing to sell out their own race for the cock of a white nationalist.

Note: Many of those in the photo are freshmen members of Congress. They all have no legislative accomplishments whatsoever. 

Rep. Coonron Donalds (R-FL), Rep. Karen Van Duyne (R-TX), Rep. Karen Jackson (R-TX), Rep. Karen Boebert (R-CO) and Salem Radio Network's far right darling Karen Loesch pose with their mighty firearms.

All headed to Texas to own the libs.

Washed Up 45 and the circus of far right extremists head to Texas to bash President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Jimmy Carter, George W. Bush, Rep. Karen Cheney (R-WY), RINOs, the junk food media, inflation, Russia, drag queens, critical race theory, woke, Lincoln and word vomits of freedom and patriotism.

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 and women 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, Hunter Biden, teleprompters, cue cards, gaffes and stuttering.

12. Posing or showing off firearms.

Republicans barely supported the bipartisan gun law that was passed in 2022. Only 11 senators out of 50. They forced a watered down bill to focus on "mental illness" instead of banning high capacity firearms. They continue to back out of the gun reform legislation proposals because it would inflame their white nationalist base. 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. 

Every community in the United States will eventually have a legacy. A legacy of tragedy. Gun violence, monkeypox 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.

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.
