Dakota Meyer, Bristol Palin’s fiance, has defended a photo on his Instagram account that depicts him playing with an infant while a gun sits unattended on a nearby table.
In the image, which was uploaded to Meyer‘s account, according to the Daily Mail, the Medal of Honor recipient holds up a child, whose name is Rowan, while a semiautomatic handgun can be seen laying on a table in the background. First highlighted by the satirical website Wonkette, the image of Meyer is roughly 16-months-old. One Instagram commenter noted the presence of the gun, prompting a response from Meyer.
“Just love the fact that there is a pistol laying on the little table behind you,” the user wrote.
“That’s just how we roll haha,” Meyer responded....

hah.. that is funny
these panty-wadded crybaby sissies would crap if they ever saw some of my childhood photos...... :)
funny thing....I was the exact same way with my kids, and they are all grown up now, and own THEIR own guns...
...and to think..we all survived.....
idiot morons.
“Ooh! Ooh! I’m putting down a MOH recipient!”
‘Social media’: the sand box in which adults let loose their most childish inclinations...
One gun? Just one? Does he need money? Is the kid carrying concealed? Not seeing a problem here except that they need more firepower.
I’m sure this picture was taking before the boating accident.
The left is going after him since he is marrying a Conservative woman and Dakota himself is Conservative..OH NOES a GUN..that to the left is like kryptonite they despise guns, except when criminals have guns thats OK
I’m surprised that the gun didn’t just “go off” being that close to the baby.
Shame on him. An unloaded weapon is only a paperweight. Put a magazine in that firearm!
No such thing as MOH “winner”. Winner implies that someone set out to win something. No one in their right mind would set to “win” a MOH.
I think most of the recipients were awarded posthumously..
He’s a recipient.
Me, too. Never occurred to me to touch one: you just DIDN’T DO THAT.
Could be one of those fancy lighters.
Okay.
Metrosexual may be an understatement.
Given the fact that the Palin family knows they are all lightening rods for attacks and controvery from the liberal media, I question their wisdom of posting personal photos of their daily lives for all to see, gun or no gun.
And?
The lefties are so out of touch with Americans.
By that logic the clock, lamp, and everything else in the room is unattended.
The only thing unattended in this article is Dustin Wicksell's mouth which is unattended by a brain.
Sergeant Meyer is not yet a member of the Palin family, to my knowledge and the photo was taken 16 months ago, according to the article.
Eagles6 is right there is no magazine in the weapon. On another note GOOD GREEF. So there is a gun in a picture of someone holding a baby. Fippen libs need to get a new cause and maybe a new life.
Too bad that picture wasn’t from the White House residence 2017?
Pray America is waking
““semi-automatic handgun” - what an ass.”
I don’t understand your comment.
