Rep. Cori Bush’s Car Struck by Gunfire in St. Louis
Breitbart ^ | 01/27/2022 | Jordan Dixon-Hamilton

Missouri Rep. Cori Bush (D) confirmed reports that her car was struck by gunfire over the weekend in the St. Louis area.

I’m touched by everyone who has reached out. Thankfully no one was harmed. But any act of gun violence shakes your soul. That’s why our movement is working to invest in our communities, eradicate the root causes of gun violence, and keep everyone safe.

Cori is learning that fact of life, first hand.

Violence, all right. They just do not teach gun safety in schools any more like they used to.

Maybe the St. Louis school system can go back to teaching ALL their students age-appropriate courses in the care, feeding, grooming and respect for firearms, and demystify the “gun culture” altogether.

This is why most ‘Rat congressmen live outside of the districts they ‘represent.’

Not too many multi-million dollar mansions in Marxine's district, so she had to look elsewhere for a dwelling that was appropriate for her position.

Then it’s kind of like this morning when I went to the post office I saw police activity down the main drag of the town. It turned out that two men had some kind of altercation and shots were fired. A car and a tree were wounded.

Ha. Probably.

Maybe she was telling groups of youths that they can still turn their lives around, risking her own life and being marked for death among warring gangs and heroin addicts as the Pat Boone minister character in The Cross and the Switchblade (1970).

There’s a good chance she was on or near a street named after Martin Luther King Jr.

I thought she may have pulled a Baldwin from inside the car.

The root cause of gun violence is evil people.

Same root cause of knife violence. Etc.

Mystery solved!

Cori:
Instead of teaching racist CRT, why not teach:
1- Do not shoot people
2- Do not steal

Just those two things.

“That’s why our movement is working to invest in our communities”

And by that Bush means the “investment” is going straight into her purse. She’ll see to that.

Cori has been involved in a couple of incidents lately that sound like they might have been “enactments.”

Cori, it’s not ‘gun violence’, it is human violence. What are you working to eradicate the root causes of the human violence that infests the district you represent?
