Mark Kelly's 'AR-15 Stunt' Provokes Giffords Photo Leak (photo of Gabby holding AR-15)

Mark Kelly's campaign against "assault weapons" such as the AR-15 rifle has sparked a local backlash. On March 13, a Tucson, Arizona radio host published a photograph of former Congresswoman Gabby Giffords holding an AR-15 rifle at a gun range. Giffords has since confirmed that the photograph is authentic. James T. Harris, blogging at the website of "101.4 FM The Truth," wrote:

What is wrong with this picture? Absolutely nothing, and prior to the aggressive progressive opportunistic fear mongering in the wake of Sandy Hook, this picture would have raised no eyebrows and garnered little public attention.

However, in response to the exploitative political scheming of Mark Kelly, persons connected to Congresswoman Giffords released this photo in response to what they perceived to be her husband’s hypocrisy.

Brady headquarters: High fives, gleeful hand rubbing and back slapping before the smoke had cleared.
So, who’s AR was she holding? If it belonged to her, why does mark kelly giffords need one to give a way? To paraphrase john f’n kerry (aka Thurston Howell III), “I was for AR-15’s before I was against AR-15’s like the one I used in Nam (actually an M-16 johnny boy). You do know I served in Nam right?” This radical left wing extremist demokkkrat scumbag anti-war activist POS is now the SOS? WTF? Well, he did have experience negotiating with the NVA in “gay” Paree right?

Normally no. But maybe some attention to the uh..... “mourners” in the bronx for 4 nights running might be in order. You know, the ones that look like “the” ones sons?

I worked at an Army Reserve maintenance shop & one day I was handed an AKMS & told to render it inoperable by cutting a gap in the chamber (used air gouger) & then welding the bolt carrier to the front trunion. It was returned to the unit where it was added to the property book by serial number.

IIRC during OEF 1 a unit had to get a G.O. to sign off on their adding a full auto weapon to their museum & again it went on the unit property book by serial number before they rotated out of theater. I had to cut up a brand new Krinkov, enough to make grown men cry.

Some O-6 got busted in Iraq trying to smuggle out six AKMSs on a C-130, it helps not to get greedy.

I guess it depends on if he’s standing say, in a bank or in his own livingroom.

The Cal target must have something to do with her being from Arizona. Still, very poor taste for a Congresswoman, as opposed to a frat boy, doing that. Wasnt she the reason politicians could no longer put bullseyes on things, or even say words like target?

If the target pic was of a black with hat backwards, gold teeth and pants pulled to his knee's I think a certain group would have a BIG problem with it. Even that scenario for a perp would seem to me to be more real life. Just sayin......

HEY!!! Why is she using a target of a young WHITE male? And wtf is up with that stupid grin of hers? Is it funny that a young white male is full of bullet holes that she made with that BLACK rifle of hers. She muss beeze Raciss and hatzes White folk!


Seriously, what if that target was of a Black Male? Even one made from a Mug Shot of a convicted Murderer. Can you imagine the sh*t storm that'd erupt if a Republican or Libertarian Pol did that? They'd be lynched by the MSM and run out of office in a day!

But a White male target, okay... 'fair game' for bullets from Libtards!

Personally I don't know any people who like to shoot at realistic targets of teenagers.

I'd prefer targets depicting the criminal left, but you just can't find 'em!

If no one else will say it I will, on FR Amish usually refers to a black person.

I know that, but why does “Amish” need to be used? That’s rather derogatory isn’t it?
