GOP Rep. Lauren Boebert's Anti-Pelosi Ad Ends With A Chilling Sound Effect

"What exactly are you implying with that?" one critic asked the Colorado Republican, in light of the deadly U.S. Capitol riot.

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) faced backlash this week for releasing an ad attacking Democrats and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) that ended with a gunshot sound.

In the spot, the QAnon-endorsing first-term lawmaker called on Pelosi to “tear down” the security fence that was put up around the U.S. Capitol following the Jan. 6 insurrection, when a violent mob of then-President Donald Trump’s supporters overran the Capitol building.

“It’s time to cut the crap and remember, this is the people’s house,” Boebert bombastically declared.

The video concluded with audio of a gunshot, followed by the sound of the weapon being reloaded and fired again.

Does the question even need to be asked of the owner of Shooters? By the way, Rep. Boebert, the people have spoken, and the House is organized in conformance with their wishes. Don't like it? Then get a majority. That's how things work in this country. Perhaps you'd be happier in a country where whoever shoots fastest and most accurately wins. You wouldn't like it there, but that's something you may need to learn for yourself.

3. I guess a cocking rifle (the origin of Klu-Klux) would've been too obvious.

So, go for a discharge.

Boebert needs to stick to not serving tainted (literally) food.

You just know Boebert will be demanding government funded protection soon for herself because of a mean Tweet she finds threatening.
