MSNBC Compares GOP Congresswoman to Osama Because She Posed With Guns(Bullying Boebert!)

MSNBC All In host and esteemed beta male Chris Hayes smeared Republican Congresswoman Lauren Boebert (CO) on Tuesday night because she dared to display her guns as decorations during a virtual congressional hearing. Comparing her to the likes of Osama Bin Laden and communist revolutionaries in Cuba, he claimed her display was an “implicit threat” of politically motived violence. He also suggested all in the GOP were “now signaling they retain the right to use violence to overthrow the government at any time.”

In teasing the pathetic segment, Hayes flashed an image of Boebert and her background, which featured two ARs, a shotgun, and her famous Glock. “Do you notice something different with the bookshelves? Not just a stockpile of weapons sitting behind her, there is a deeper meaning to this image. An implicit threat, too,” he declared.

Besides the laughable idea that four weapons constituted a “stockpile,” Hayes whined about how Boebert had “built her political identity around guns” and allowed people to carry them in the restaurant she owned back home. “Boebert vowed to carry a Glock around D.C. and on Capitol Hill. She released a video to make sure that we all knew it,” he huffed.

The ignorant MSNBC host then went on to scoff at the idea that she would want the guns to defend her family and her four boys, something millions of Americans own guns for:

"...they retain the right to use violence to overthrow the government..."

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a FREE State, the right of the PEOPLE to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

(Emphasis mine)

And she's a Glock girl to boot!

Looks like perhaps a Glock 43 on her hip.

If it was me, I’d say “Compare away. The bad part about Osama wasn’t that he liked guns, it was that he murdered people, terrorized them, and did things that eroded or destroyed their freedom and self-determination. You know, like a Democrat. Also, he probably smelled bad. Liking guns may have been his only positive trait.”

the GOP were “now signaling they retain the right to use violence to overthrow the government at any time.”

Not at any time. Just:

when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism.

Yes, we retain that right, and we always will. If the socialists recognize that they have crossed that line, perhaps it would be prudent for them to back down and follow the Constitution.

I miss G. Gordon Liddy’s “Stacked & Packed” calendars. But “Tactical Girls” calendars are nice, too.

Guess you didn’t get the memo either with the ‘new, improved’ daffynition of ‘infringed’. 😲

More propaganda from one of the graduates of the Goebbels School of Journalism. They learned their trade well.

How come there isn’t a Congressional Gun Owners Caucus to answer this stupidity by immediately posing with their AR-15’s?

If Cong. Boebert understood Freeper wisdom, she’d have used a photo of a capsized boat for her Zoom background.

Seems like only yesterday the Left was telling us an mob of armed insurrectionists were prowling the halls of Congress with murder atop their do-lists. Now one member shows she is ready to protect herself (and doubtless, her feckless colleagues), and they equate self-defense with terrorism. Pathetic.

Hey Chris, you better watch your mouth. Congresswoman Boebert is libel to shoot your eye out, or sumthin’.

Nope, doesn’t care about that.

Two things I have a question about 1 it’s at goofy fornicator Gillian wearing field jacket in Vietnam 2 I don’t ever recall having a strap on my M16 while I was there. And maybe a third his weapon safety leaves a little to be desired
