Businessinsider ^ | 11/08/2021 | John L Dorman

Rep. Adam Kinzinger in a recent interview said that he considered using his gun during the January 6 insurrection at the US Capitol, expressing that he was "prepared to defend" himself against his own party.

While talking with Rolling Stone, the Illinois Republican spoke of the "real sense of evil" he felt that day, and even before the insurrection occurred, he felt as though violence, fueled by then-President Donald Trump's unsubstantiated claims of a stolen election, was imminent.

Yeah the Republicans are nazis a real threat to democracy. That’s why thousands of these protesters didn’t do so much as draw graffiti on anything. That’s also why they left quickly and peacefully.

Meanwhile Biden is having 10 million illegals storm the country, including drug cartels murderers and rapists.

Bet Adam Kinzinger doesn’t give a damn.

Using his gun to do what?

Shoot himself before the Capitol Police could?

He felt a real sense of evil? Probably because he was constantly surrounded by Commucrats and RINOs everyday in Congress. Oh, that's right he is a RINO, so he definitely knows about evil. He is a treasonous, lying dirt bag.

‘the Illinois Republican spoke of the “real sense of evil” he felt that day,’

This guy’s a moron.

Yes, people walking between control ropes and sleeping under paintings in the Rotunda is real, real scary!

145 House members voted for Liz Cheney to continue to lead them in February, most of the GOP is just like Kinzinger, just quieter.
