Beto O’Rourke: ‘There Will Be a Reckoning’ on November 8 — Our Children’s Lives Depend on It
Breitbart ^ | 05/26/2022 | Ian hatchett

Posted on 05/27/2022 5:00:21 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Texas Democratic candidate for governor Beto O’Rourke said Thursday on “MSNBC Prime” that he believes there will be a “reckoning” led by voters reacting to mass shootings in the upcoming midterm elections in November.

O’Rourke said, “The choice is to vote for people who reflect and represent your values. What I’m trying to say is that too often, we dismiss folks to others who belong to the other political party. We say all Republicans are this or that or all Democrats are this and that. I’m just saying that the majority of us in Texas, which includes Republicans and Democrats, want the right thing. Their values are unreflected by those in power who continue to ignore this kind of slaughter we are seeing in our schools. And, yes, it so happens that Democrats right now who are on the ballot are for common-sense gun laws. Democrats are for woman’s right to choose. Democrats are for a state that is big enough for all of us regardless of who you love or how you love. Democrats are for what I think allows this state to fulfill its promise and its potential.”

Not sure about that. Texas has changed a lot.

There are at least 23,000 gun laws across the country. Most of them are ignored.

Just like the left invited in islamofascist killers to give them rational to steal our freedoms with the so-called “Patriot” Act. They laugh every time they think of their government lackeys fondling our privates at airports by the millions every day.

Did he condemn Democrats for blocking bills to deal with these issues? They literally just did this again the other day.

“our children’s lives depend on it” then advocates for abortion on demand in the same comments.

I find it very telling that the msm and big tech are throwing any and all info regarding this shooter, who might be Trans, down the Memory Hole. I came across a disturbing article, can’t remember from where, that went into some detail about two Kids, 13 and 14 in that town that were full on starting to plot a Columbine type event....This was in 2018. They were planning this Massacre for 2020. I think it was a serious threat, the Kids were arrested and FIB were investigating. Hmmmmm.....

The Left needs bodies and victims ... and at some point they will insure there are some to act outraged about.

His sense of self-importance is rather grand, matches his self-righteousness.

I wouldn’t be surprised if this sick little Ramos b@$tard was a sleeper working on Bobby O’Dourke’s campaign. Bato’s appearance at the news conference seemed too well orchestrated for that dumba$$ to do on his own.

Nonsense, everyone will have forgotten about Uvalde by November 8th.

But they will remember their lasting impressions, like Beto using death for politics.

I reckon he’s gonna lose, again.

BTW, i don’t see tons of BETA ads or signs in Texas this time, like last time.
I guess his rich father-in-law is tired of forking over wasted dollars.
