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."

Of course, he wouldn't be taking people's guns. Doesn't someone else do that?

Beta has not accomplished a single thing in his entire life (other than to marry money, not that that is an actual accomplishment). He is a loser and a Commie. He would be happier moving to a commie state and leaving Texas alone.

I don't know, I heard the expression, "Marry a woman for money, and expect to work for it for the rest of your life," or something like that. I've never tried to date a rich woman, but it may be a challenge.

Did he play this Motown song with his band: The Contours "First I Look At The Purse"

Every word he utters is a lie, including 'and' and 'the'.

Hell yes, we're going to take your AR-15, your AK-47"

Texans ain't that stupid Beto, and they have long memories.

Beto O’Rourke in his own words: “Hell yes, we’re going to take away your AR-15!”
