Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) gave no room for nuance during Wednesday's House Judiciary Committee hearing about the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives new rule on arm braces, stating either people are for strict gun control laws or they are with mass shooters.

Swalwell went on to say he believes Republicans who are calling to defund the ATF are putting targets on the back of law enforcement.
House Republicans laid into ATF Director Steven Dettelbach for the agency changing the rule about pistol braces after they have been in circulation for over 10 years.

You’re either with Fang Fangy or her handlers, Eric.

Fang! Fang! You’re d3@d.
Sounds like Fang Fang gave Swalwell one of her Chinese propaganda 3x5 cards.
