House Republican reacts to Dems' fit over guns in her home(more in depth than yesterday)

Reacting to Democrats who had a fit over the fact she has guns in her home, a Colorado congresswoman says her colleagues across the aisle are "too busy mocking the Constitution" to get their work done.

The reaction from U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., came after a virtual hearing that disintegrated into a diatribe against the Second Amendment, which, Boebert pointed out, is part of the Constitution that Democrats swore an oath to uphold.

"Rather than having a productive debate about policy … Democrats were too busy mocking the Constitution and disrespecting the everyday Americans that I was elected to represent," she said in an interview with Fox News' Mike Emanuel.

"This was my first committee hearing, and the chairman couldn't stop attacking, degrading,and insulting committee members," she said. "I am busy fighting against the left's real fetish for power and stripping Americans of their constitutional rights."

Claude Taylor, a former White House staff member for Bill Clinton, criticized Boebert via Twitter.

"Unsafe gun storage is no laughing matter," he wrote. "Is this Fascist fraulein really the best Colorado's 3rd CD can do?"

Boebert said: "Who says this is storage? These are ready for use."

Every state and federal congressman I write, I point out to them they have violated their oath of office to uphold the state constitution and the federal constitution, so they must resign.

So far, no takers.

They wouldn’t like me at all. Safe gun storage is good, but I have no kids, nobody comes in I don’t open the door for, and how I store my guns - ready for use - is my business.

I sleep with a shotgun leaned up against the wall, not far away, and a 9mm within easy reach. Which one I would grab would depend on how much time I have. A .22 rifle has been leaned up just inside the back door for 30 years. Everybody knows it’s there, ready to go, and nobody has ever touched it but me and my sister. Pellet pistol, 30lb recurve bow and crossbow pistol all easily available and not a trigger lock in sight. All safeties are ON, and checked regularly.

And that’s a partial list. Everything cleaned and oiled twice a year if it needs it or not. Shotgun hasn’t been fired in 15 years. Still gets cleaned. It will be used soon though, I recently got a full choke barrel to replace the original modified one, need to pattern it and compare. (16 ga winchester model 1200) I think I’m gonna like it.

Liberals would absolutely wet their panties if they saw my place...I carry in the car too. Legally.

Don’t know much about this lady, I’m not in her state but she seems to have the right idea and backbone enough to stand up to the idiots, so she’s ok in my book.

Irony - When she doesn't have guns behind her she will no longer
be a Fascist as by then only Fascists will have guns.

Well, you had all those available until the great flood of 2020 right? Wink wink! When the grand-neighbors come over I move anything hazardous to a safe location. Otherwise, things are in orange. An unloaded guns is a hammer/door stop. And, I’ve had an accidental(irresponsible) discharge and known one that resulted in a death and been acquainted with far too many that have done themselves in with firearms. Has not changed my views in the least.

Been to Rifle, Co. When my wife and I were driving through that part of the state, spotted the name and said to her, we are heading here. Fortunately the lefty loonies from Ca didn’t stop here on their relocations to Denver. Lovely area and as the photo shows, lovely people too.

“Were the zoomers skerred that she might shoot someone through the computer screen?”

Some snowflake saw the guns and was “triggered”.

Being called a facist by an obvious commie ought to be considered a compliment.
After all, in the last century commie governments murdered over 60m of their own citizens. Not war loses, systematic murder. Just like what is being done by the CCP now.
So having a backer of a near-genocidal polity criticize me would be a relief. It would be far worse to be expected to behave in a civil manner to them under any circumstances.
“Me, a facist? Well, only in comparison to you!”

Thinking of all the agita a Congressional Gun-Owner’s Caucus inflicts on lefties makes me so so so happy.
