Beto O’Rourke Campaign Sells ‘Hell Yes We’re Going to Take Your AR-15’ Shirts
Breitbart ^ | 13 Sep 2019 | Charlie Spiering

Posted on 09/13/2019 5:50:55 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Former Congressman Beto O’Rourke’s presidential campaign debuted new merchandise Thursday night designed around his biggest line of the Democratic primary debate. The campaign’s web store is now selling a shirt with red, white, and blue letters promising widespread gun confiscation.

“Hell yes we’re going to take your AR-15” the shirt reads, followed by the “Beto for America” slogan.

The t-shirt style comes in “Unisex” and “Ladies cut.”

O’Rourke made headlines in Thursday’s debate, promising to make AR-15 and AK-47 rifles illegal and to confiscate them.

“Hell yes, we’re going to take your AR-15, your AK-47,” he said, as the crowd cheered. “We’re not going to allow it to be used against our fellow Americans anymore.”

To support that position, O’Rourke told the story of a woman whose daughter died in the El Paso mass shooting, claiming that the teen girl bled to death “over the course of an hour because… there weren’t enough ambulances to get to them in time.” However, his version of the story exaggerated or falsified many details, according to local news affiliate KOSA.

Weeks earlier, O’Rourke began selling a gun control t-shirt that read “This is F*cked up,” referring to an interview he gave after the El Paso mass shooting in Texas.

Robert Francis just blew his own foot off. Doing the world a favor because no one is going to vote for him for anything.

Ok, so let me get this straight.

You have NO chance at being president.

But you may have gone back home and possibly won one or another political position.

In Texas.

And now you’ve become the most wildly anti gun dem among those running for POTUS.

Gotcha! :)

If the money didn’t go to his campaign, I’d buy one and wear it to the gun range.

There are quite a few guys there that still vote democrat.

Not my point at all.

Just have the shirt on and your GL-21 holstered.

More of a mocking was my intent.

How many months before this goes hot?

If the progs manage to steal this election (and given our courts/wimpy Republicans, corrupt Democrats, and bottom of the septic tank journalists), even Trump may not be able to stop this.

Sad we had a great country.

I saw that shirt this morning, in a post right here on FR.

Not at (all) clear that isn’t much more effective, for our side.

For real.

There will be plenty of copycats who just sell them to make a buck.

There’s one on eBay already.

Not a penny will go to Beta.
