Walz goes pheasant hunting with his own Beretta as campaign makes appeal to gun owners

Sleepy Eye, Minnesota — Carrying a Beretta shotgun, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz trekked through tall straw-like grass for three hours on Saturday for opening day of the state's pheasant hunting season, but didn't get one shot off despite his efforts.

"There's good days and there's great days pheasant hunting," Walz said when the day wrapped up.

Scott Rall, a friend of the governor who he often hunts with, made the sole kill on Saturday. Recovering the body of the birds was a top priority in the instructions given to the hunting party, but no one was able to find the carcass in the thick brush that at some points grew as tall as Walz himself.

Many of the pheasants and animals that did come up out of the tall grass and straw flew backward toward the press. At one point, that prompted Walz to seemingly allude to the 2006 hunting accident involving former Vice President Dick Cheney, in which Cheney accidentally shot a fellow hunter in the face.

"Every vice president joke ever made was about to be made right there. And I was just like this," Walz said as he motioned to taking his gun off of safety.

"Too far," Walz said of one bird that was in his line of sight.

Funny how the Left only likes guns during election season.

I’m still convinced that Walz thought they told him they were hunting PEASANTS. Thus his enthusiasm.

That’s why they breed retrievers. Sometimes called gun dogs, or hunting dogs.

The Left only thinks guns are for hunting or sport shooting.

Democrats are gun grabbers, always and forever. Gun owners (and Christians) should nevereverevereverevereverevereverever vote for any Democrat.

The 2A is about hunting, but the game animal that would be hunted is what makes them uncomfortable.
