Beto O'Rourke Makes It Clear: I'm Coming for the Guns If Elected Texas Governor
Patriot Fetch ^ | 11/22/21 | Johnny

He failed as a Senate candidate. He failed as a presidential candidate. Might as well go for the trifecta and fail as a gubernatorial candidate, too, right?

 

Well, let’s all pray that far-left radical Beto O’Rourke crashes and burns in his bid to succeed Greg Abbott as governor of Texas.

Because if the guy wins, the Lone Star state is in a world of hurt.

From The Daily Wire:

Texas Democrat Robert Francis O’Rourke, commonly referred to as “Beto,” told CNN during an interview on Sunday that he wants to pursue gun confiscation if he is elected to be the state’s next governor, and he refused to say that he wanted President Joe Biden to campaign for him in the state.

Gun control, in particular, was your number one issue in your presidential campaign,” CNN host Dana Bash said in reference to O’Rourke’s failed campaign.

Bash then played a clip from one of the presidential debates where O’Rourke declared, “Hell, yes, we’re going to take your AR-15, your AK-47.”

His real name is Bob, and he is an Irish guy. Look at that last name. Bob goes by the fake hispanic name, "Beto" to con hispanic voters. Even though he was known in high school as Bob.

Bob even tried to join the hispanic caucus and was rejected because he is not even 5% hispanic.

Although given the fact he was arrested for burglary. It does not surprise me he fears guns.

Beto wants to come for Texans’ guns?

I’m sure the feeling is mutual.

BetaBob = come and take it, personally, by yourself if you want it so bad. Also, go ahead and announce you are going to ban and take away the Texas flag too, lol. And the ban high school football, ‘cause it’s dangerous. Bad cows and horses too, you know for globull warming.

I'm sure that Hispanic Democrats are not happy about giving up their guns. They vote Democrat for the free stuff, but not for someone taking their guns.

Communist are emboldened. They just publicly Announce how they are going to violate your rights and oppress you.

Why?

Mostly because the citizens allow them to.

I’d love to see a good old fashioned tar and feathering and a few drawn and quarters these days.

A government that fears it’s people.....

Beto the Bozo might have a chance to win the election for a Dallas dog catcher ... on second thought .... probably not.

Maybe Beto doesn’t want to win an election. I think he is just happy living off of campaign contributions.

He’s only in it for the money and attention. With comments like that, he’s not serious about running.

Arrested so anti-guns....

I didn’t follow his checkered career so thanks for that tip.
The people of Texas, divided as they are, must include a lot of pure dolts now. Ted Cruz barely held on the make a comeback and win over this total moron and fake.

For others like me who didn’t know (Wikipedia)
Legal issues
On May 19, 1995, O’Rourke and his friends jumped over a fence at the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP) physical plant, and were arrested by the UTEP police for burglary. He was held in jail overnight and posted bail the following day. He was initially charged with burglary, but prosecutors dropped the case against O’Rourke and his friends in February 1996 when UTEP declined to pursue the charges.

O’Rourke was arrested for driving while intoxicated on September 27, 1998, at 3:00 a.m. on Interstate 10 in Anthony, Texas after causing an accident and then trying to flee the scene. The charges were dismissed in October 1999 after he completed a court-recommended DWI program.
