Democratic Texas gubernatorial candidate Beto O’Rourke appears to have flip-flopped – again – on confiscating AR-15s, as polls show him trailing behind Republican Gov. Greg Abbott.

The failed senatorial and presidential contender said earlier this week that he has "no interest in taking" assault weapons from gun owners.

"I’m not interested in taking anything from anyone," O’Rourke said to reporters in Tyler, Texas. "What I want to make sure that we do is defend the Second Amendment. I want to make sure that we protect our fellow Texans far better than we’re doing right now."

polls show him trailing behind Republican Gov. Greg Abbott.

Can one trail AHEAD of someone?

that's the new math they teach nowadays.

Beto’s between a rock and hard place. His voters want gun confiscation but the major of Texans do not. What to do if he wants to win........ what to do?

I find it difficult to believe that hispanics in Texas are fooled by the name “Beto”

“Beto’s between a rock and hard place. His voters want gun confiscation but the major of Texans do not. What to do if he wants to win........ what to do?”

Easy, the Swiss ‘solution’. You can keep your guns, but you better not use them for defense (10 years mandatory), take them to the range, transport them except to approved places, for approved reasons.

That way he keeps his promise...

[Carriage Hill]

He’s not qualified to do anything else, but stand-up and lie to a crowd. Worthless as teats on a bull.

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

He has done said he will confiscate. Take him at this word once he gets into power.
NEVER trust someone who has made such a statement as “I WILL take your guns!” even when they suddenly “crawfish” on what they said.

[Fightin Whitey]

Beto blows whenever/however/whoever he can can can.

[outofsalt]

He should move to New York. They vote for dumb asses.

[Sans-Culotte]

I have no doubt that will make its way into a campaign ad.

If you are too stupid to be in Biden’s cabinet, how incredibly stupid are you?

[minnesota_bound]

Beto O’Rourke: I will not take your guns from you until AFTER I am in office.
Then me and my fellow democrats will kill anyone who stands in the way of the democrat party.

[jmacusa]

‘’how incredibly stupid are you?’’.

Um. Too stupid to be an idiot?
