Dan Crenshaw Reveals That He Was Plotting Gun Control Before He Was Elected to Congress
Big League Politics ^ | 08/28/19 | Shayne Trejo

Posted on 08/28/2019 5:49:54 PM PDT by Enlightened1

Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) has revealed a bombshell, perhaps accidentally, that he supported red flag gun control since before he started his run for Congress, showing that he lied on the campaign trail about his firm support of the 2nd Amendment of the Constitution.

“I’ve been thinking seriously about this policy for years. It was not something I recently heard of. The NRA supported well-crafted GVRO,” Crenshaw told Kaitlin Bennett of Liberty Hangout, referring to a gun violence restraining order that would allow a judge to order the seizure of firearms from an individual deemed a public safety risk.

Crenshaw has gone further than supporting GVROs. He publicly endorsed pre-crime legislation such as red flag laws and The Threat Assessment, Prevention, and Safety (TAPS) Act following mass shootings in El Paso and Dayton earlier this month.

But but.... SEAL, Military..Hero!!

Yes dim bulb, please tell me more about this idea. Take the guns away from the psycho, further enraging him, and then leave him there alone at the house with knives, bombs, bats, rental trucks, poisons, access to the black market, dope, gasoline and matches, etc.

Any other bright ideas swabbie?

Agitprop.

Just know that Crenshaw is in the Left's sights since he's been taking on the AOC et. al.

If you can’t trust a one-eyed Navy SEAL who CAN you trust? They’re like pod people. Replacements.

We are long past the point where being a vet, even from a combat unit means you can trust someone.
They live too long in the childlike life of life on base, and anyone else possessing powerful weapons makes him feel less special.

Very emotionally stunted.

Kaitlin Bennett did a video about him a couple of days ago:

Dan Crenshaw Messaged Me

He sounds like a real piece of... work.

Crenshaw also opposed Trump’s ban on travel from terrorist countries. Face it, he’s another Bush republican.

This should be a warning to those on here that support Red Flag Laws: Politicians lie. But it won't. The politicians blew smoke up their asses one time when they had to. If necessary, they can do it again.

They are worse, Jim. Republicans can do things that Democrats can only dream about.

Crenshaw came on the scene like a tiger but he has not supported POTUS and on several occasions was one of the first to stick the knife in.

The worst XO I ever worked for was adamant about only the military and LE possessing firearms. We used to have some really spirited discussions in the wardroom.

He was quite connected politically, and went on to make 4 stars. I don’t believe many GoFos actually support the
Constitution, although they swear the same oath I did.

Just because you were in the Military doesn’t make you a hero...Just because you were in the Military and got wounded doesn’t make you a hero...just means you were at the wrong place at the wrong time...

We'll see. I don't trust sensational reporting, I need at least 48 hours for the rest of the story to shake loose.

Forget about man.

I will lift up my eyes to the hills— from whence comes my help? My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
Psalms 121:1-2

Only God can pull us out of this mess.
