WASHINGTON (KDVR) — Rep. Lauren Boebert was briefly refused entry to the U.S. Capitol Tuesday evening.
Boebert, who has announced her intention to carry a gun on Capitol grounds, set off a metal detector. It wasn’t clear if she had a cellphone or other metal object in her purse.
OTOH, if capital punishment for certain crimes were reinstituted, then there wouldn’t be such a need for restricting gun rights for others.
Let us show her we support her in upholding the Constitution.
Her email is:
The problem with any or all of your “ reasonable” restrictions is who gets to decide.
Of course, the med folks, the state,the neighbor down the street will always decide for the control of others.
Hence, the right to life liberty and pursuit of happiness is the operative principle behind all other rights.
Don’t tread on me, and you won’t be tread upon.
Sent an email and told her I had just adopted her as my daughter.
What’s the point.
They couldn’t arrest her so it is freedom from metal detectors.
LOL. Let us know if she responds. She just might.
Agreed. He has crazy eyes. One look at him and you know there are some bad things running around inside his head that he's barely keeping a lid on. I literally wouldn't turn my back on him and would not want any of my family members in the same room with him.
You may think that, but if they are non-criminal, citizens you don't get {nor do you deserve} to decide who is armed.
You sound like a liberal with that kind of a statement.
But,OTOH,are there any people who you think should be denied access to firearms?
I had a 20+ year career at a world famous,big city,hospital. My first 10 years there were spent in the ER. I could tell you stories that would make the hair on your toes curl. However,in spite of that experience I'm a firm supporter of the 2nd Amendment. And because of that experience I believe that some people should be denied access to firearms.
Just sayin'...
She is the best Colorado has to offer.
Don’t tread on me, and you won’t be tread upon.

I don’t disagree but I think that is where the problem comes in.
Your question..’Who gets to decide’ is the real problem for society.
We as individuals of society have many varying opinions among
the total. Thus all the rules, regs, etc.
Thanks for the insult. 8~)
Good for her!!!! Liz Cheney to condem her in 3, 2, 1...
Long ago, felony was defined as a crime where someone deprived the victim of their inherent civial rights. Therefore, the state deprived the perpetrator of theirs. Hence justification of negating someone’s 2A rights.
Misdemeanor was all other crimes.
Wow, reasoning behind something legal.
What a refreshing change.....
I just heard on the news that Twatter has suspended Lauren’s account until after the inauguration.
Exactly. Either they are in prison or not. Once they have done their time, they should have the same rights as any other citizen. If they are a danger to society, then something needs to be done to work on the punishment side of things.
Should they be denied access to motor vehicles? Gasoline?
Your approach to the problem has resulted in states like California having about 100 pages of gun laws. We have to pass a background check to buy ammunition. Have you read any reports of dramatic declines in crime in California? I haven’t.
It’s a camera shaped like a gum smile wait for flash.
i’m hoping she has a .45 Kimber just like mine and carries it with her every where she goes.
Big bullets with hollow points.
Range time is your friend.
