Woman booted from Conn. gun hearing for texting she'd 'blow away' GOP lawmaker, NRA members
Washington Times ^ | 03/12/2019 | By Jessica Chasmar

A woman was escorted from the Connecticut State Capitol building after someone spotted her writing a text that said she wanted to “blow away” a Republican lawmaker and National Rifle Association members during a public hearing on gun control Monday.

The judiciary committee considered seven gun-related measures that included a ban on homemade “ghost guns,” which can be assembled by obtaining parts through the internet, and a bill to require gun owners to show their pistol permit when asked by police.

Republican state Sen. Rob Sampson is a staunch Second Amendment supporter who came out against the legislation.

A woman, who has not been identified, was escorted out of the building during the eight-hour public hearing after she texted her daughter that if she had a gun she would “blow away” Mr. Sampson and NRA members, the Hartford Courant reported.

“If I had a gun, I’d blow away Sampson and a large group of NRA,” she wrote, according to a photo tweeted by WTNH Chief Political Correspondent Mark Davis.

Also deranged are Capital Police. As “no arrest was made”.

If you eliminated every NRA member from the list of mass shooters you’d have pretty much an unaltered list of mass shooters.

Not arrested.
If a kid “chews” a pop tart to look like a gun he’s arrested.

So there’s intent.

And she didn’t say nuclear weapon. She mentioned a weapon that she could reasonably get with some effort.

No crime?

I’m a big free speech person but I am far from a legal expert. Or expert on anything lol

You should see them at Yahoo. A lot of really angry people who get riled up at any of the nonsense the liberal MSM throw out there. They have really programmed these fools.

Decades ago I had a button stating Support mental health or I’ll kill you. Things haven’t changed much.

The crazy broad should have been arrested, THEN removed from the meeting in handcuffs.

Criminal threatening is not a crime in Connecticut? Who knew?

“A woman, who has not been identified”

From what little I can see in that pic - and it’s enough - I can tell that is one typical FUGLY liberal female.

“....Liberals are mentally deranged. But we all know that.....”
The libs are wanting gun bans for other reasons that have nothing to do with crime at all. They’re afraid....very afraid. They should be.

Perhaps but the loud and clear message is that liberals have no problem with guns or using them for their ends. Their problem with guns is that you can have them too.

“....a ban on homemade “ghost guns,”....”
Good luck with that. That’s why they’re called “ghost guns”. Nobody sees em or knows if they even exist....until it’s too late. Constitution State? Not so much anymore.
