Gov. Greg Abbott’s visit to a shooting range to sign a bill into law got big attention when he took some target practice and made a crack about journalists. “I’m going to carry this around in case I see any reporters,” Abbott said with a grin as he joked with journalists covering the event, after he was given his target sheet. There was little attention paid to the remark at The Range in South Austin, where Abbott posed for a photograph.

There are no words that Gov. Abbott, or even a 1960s Marine Drill Instructor could use that would be too demeaning or too insulting a description of a member of the fitth-column leftist media.

A comparison of anyone in the media (e.g., Lester, David, Scott, Andrea) to a diseased lowest life form would be an insult to that lowest life form.

And don't apologize, Gov Abbott, when the Left and their Media have a hissy fit, either...

After LBJ, and two Bush’s, America would never survive another president from Texas.

Left buys tickets to see libtard movies where republican presidents are murdered. Fantasizes in writing and tv shows about Trump being murdered.

One quip about a range target?

You can tell who wins by the reaction of the other side.

Abbott just won big time.

Liberals gots no sense of humor!

Try to remember some facts, media guys. Remember how much publicity Abbott’s predecessor, Rick Perry, got when he shot a coyote when he was out walking his dog? Don’t you think Abbott needs his own publicity?

Oh, and by the way, thanks for giving it to him! You dummies, he’s Governor of Texas. If course he gets to brag about his shooting ability.

“...When the Ship of State rights itself the only question that will remain is who will be led up the steps of the Gallows first, the Journalists or the Politicians....”

I suspect neither. The first to be hanged will probably be the black-robed tyrants that we know as “judges”. Then, right behind em will probably be politicians, then journalists.
