Pete Buttigieg Chides Gun Owners Who Have ‘Sense of Manhood’ Wrapped Up in Guns
Breitbart ^ | 13 Sep 2019 | Charlie Spiering

Posted on 09/13/2019 6:34:14 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Mayor Pete Buttigieg criticized some gun owners on Friday, suggesting it was sad that their “sense of manhood” depended on owning a gun. In an interview with TMZ Live on Friday, Buttigieg was asked about the Twitter feud between former Congressman Beto O’Rourke and Texas Republican Representative Briscoe Cain.

After O’Rourke told gun owners that “Hell, yes, we’re gonna take your AR-15″ during the Democrat debate on Thursday, Cain dared Beto O’Rourke on Twitter to come and take his AR-15.

Buttigieg agreed with O’Rourke that Cain’s comment on Twitter was a “death threat,” and the South Bend mayor admonished Cain for failing to have a more intelligent conversation about gun issues.

“[I]f it gets to where your sense of manhood is wrapped up in owning a gun, I think that’s where our culture is on the wrong track,” Buttigieg said, referring to the controversy.

Buttigieg said that a gun was effectively “a tool” and should be treated as such.

“We’ve got to think about the relationship we have with our weapons,” he said. “Look, to me, a gun is a tool. It can be used as a tool for hunting. You can use it as a tool for sporting. You can even use it as a tool for self-defense.”

O’Rourke’s campaign reported Cain’s tweet to the FBI and Twitter as a death threat on Thursday, as O’Rourke spent most of Friday taunting the Texas lawmaker for his tweet.

“It really drives home the point, better than I could have made,” O’Rourke said on CNN on Friday. “Rep. Briscoe Cain is making the case that no one should have an AR-15 that they can hold over someone else in the country and say, look, if we disagree on something, let me introduce you to my AR-15.”

Hey, Pete: the fact that you wore camo only has so much stock value. A lot of us did, other faggots have as well, and it helped protect the ability and freedom of faggots like you to be the faggot you are. But the one thing you'll never have the moral or cultural currency to spend is to take a shot at the manhood of real males who don't have the perverted predilection of poking another of your own gender up the bung socket and call it 'love' or 'physical attraction', then lecture the hormonally-correct rest of us about guns, cars, big-breasted women, or the type of beer we like. Now, go back to your fizzy hard seltzer, get sloppy with your legal-in-name-only boy toy, and leave us the hell alone. You've already treated everything from the Boy Scouts to modern cinema like a condom in a gay bath house, so begone. We're sick of you, and we're sick of your sickness.

Pete can’t find his manhood with both hands, a flashlight, and a magnifying glass.

I wonder if he mentioned the common thread of homosexual men who are obsessed with big dogs. For a couple years I worked for a homosexual “man”. He and his partner, and all their freak homo friends were obsessed with their big dogs. They put dresses on them.

G-d D@mn Sigmund Freud and his theories to hell for ever and ever. That SOB is responsible for a lot of the issues that modern society has ("It's the way I was raised - it's my parents' fault").

This stupid "phallic symbol" argument comes up EVERY time about guns (Hillary has used that term), and it ISN'T true. I own guns for a very rational reason - I know history. KMA, and Molon Labe. Enough!

“So does his sense of “manhood” reside with his “husband”?”

So does his sense of “manhood” reside IN his “husband”?

What can Pete possibly know about manhood since he refers to himself as a “wife.” ROFL

My manhood is fine, Mayor Pete! My guns doesn’t define my manhood. Being a married family man define my manhood, you jerk.
