Reporter Wounded by Bullet Fragment While Democrat Senate Candidate Lucas Kunce Shoots AR-15
Brietbart ^ | 10/22/2024 | Awr Hawkins

A television reporter was wounded by an apparent bullet fragment while Missouri Democrat Senate candidate Lucas Kunce was shooting an AR-15 at a campaign event.

The Kansas City Star reported that the event was held in a rural area north of Kansas City.

The Star also noted, “Kunce was shooting an AR-15 at the time, and was the only person shooting when the injury occurred.”

The reporter, KSHB-TV’s Ryan Gamboa, stood in place while Kunce bandaged the wound.

With the election only two weeks away, Kunce had been stressing his military service as a way to appeal to voters, and he has been running ads that show him shooting guns.

Kunce supports at least one of Washington, DC, Democrats’ central gun controls: raising the minimum age for gun purchases. OnTheIssues.org reported that he wants to “raise the age limit to purchase a gun from 18 to 21.”

No surprise that former Republican Adam Kinzinger was also at the event. Reports are that they were shooting non-angled steel targets at five yards with scoped rifles.

If this doesn’t cost Lucas the election, Missouri is in for a rough time for the next few years.

I didn’t know Alec Baldwin was running for Senator from Missouri.

I checked Wikipedia and it seems that reporters are widely considered human, so this could be a problem for the democrat’s image.

I've never used Tannerite but posters online insist there's Tannerite on the table in front of them while they're shooting.

This guy is a moron. You don’t shoot steel target (especially at 90 degrees) at close range. Any shooter with experience knows this.

He might be a former Marine, but he doesn’t know anything about firearms.

More accurately; "You'll shoot the reporter's eye out, kid."

Might be Tannerate jars but from the other side, it looks like they were recycled for brass.
