MSNBC Compares GOP Congresswoman to Osama Because She Posed With Guns(Bullying Boebert!)

MSNBC All In host and esteemed beta male Chris Hayes smeared Republican Congresswoman Lauren Boebert (CO) on Tuesday night because she dared to display her guns as decorations during a virtual congressional hearing. Comparing her to the likes of Osama Bin Laden and communist revolutionaries in Cuba, he claimed her display was an “implicit threat” of politically motived violence. He also suggested all in the GOP were “now signaling they retain the right to use violence to overthrow the government at any time.”

In teasing the pathetic segment, Hayes flashed an image of Boebert and her background, which featured two ARs, a shotgun, and her famous Glock. “Do you notice something different with the bookshelves? Not just a stockpile of weapons sitting behind her, there is a deeper meaning to this image. An implicit threat, too,” he declared.

Besides the laughable idea that four weapons constituted a “stockpile,” Hayes whined about how Boebert had “built her political identity around guns” and allowed people to carry them in the restaurant she owned back home. “Boebert vowed to carry a Glock around D.C. and on Capitol Hill. She released a video to make sure that we all knew it,” he huffed.

The ignorant MSNBC host then went on to scoff at the idea that she would want the guns to defend her family and her four boys, something millions of Americans own guns for:

Picking on girls again crissy tuff guy? Did you pee your pants when you saw an actual gun near the congress person? What a friggin' meow. And it is not a threat. A simple reminder that some folks will actually defend themselves and families. For me, better that no on knows if I do or not.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That is in fact why the founders put the 2nd Amendment in the Constitution, as a last resort check on tyranny.

Yeah, and PETA members are all like Hitler because they too are vegetarians.

And Mormons are all like Hitler because they don’t drink.

So...does this make Lauren Boebert the Che Guevara of the GOP?
Will we get to order posters and t shirts?

It seems like the media, with the Democrats not far behind, are ready to designate every gun owner as an enemy of the state, along with Christians, conservatives, Republicans and everyone with an American flag in their yard. Where is this going ultimately? Do they want a civil war?

They should look at all of Joe Manchin's campaign ads with guns.

Gee, how many of us Vietnam era vets will they compare to Osama Bin Laden because of the pictures we took of each other standing outside our barracks wearing our helmet liners and proudly standing at “Port Arms” with our M-16s?
