ICYMI: Video (orig. posted by the @montrosepress) of @RepBoebert saying “We already see in Washington, DC, you can’t petition your government, you’re an insurrectionist if you do that.” #copolitics #co03

1. She's fumbling her stagecraft. Forgot the guns and framed trump picture

[Blue Owl]

5. Her mouth-breathing minions will glaze right over without those props behind her

[wcmagumba]

2. Yeah, just like the time the Visigoths asked to speak with Caesar...nt

[Marcuse]

3. Liar.

[Leghorn21]

4. Yeah right, petition this, motherfucker

[Talitha]

6. Sit on it, Lauren!

[Blue Owl]

7. BimBoebert Alert!

8. Stupid, repulsive, lying creature

9. Another asshole republican trying to re-write history.

We all saw what happened on Jan. 6. It was insurrection as plain as day but she's trying to say it was just petitioning the government.

It won't work. She herself was texting in real time the Speaker's location. Let's see what investigations turn up about that.

10. She also calls her Clostridium perfringens cultures "pulled porker sliders" !

County dodged a bullet on food poisoning
July 15, 2017

... 80 people got sick ...

... pulled pork sliders served by Shooters Grill .. was blamed for the sickness ...

The pork was smoked at Smokehouse 1776, which has common ownership with Shooters in downtown Rifle.

... “36 of 38 who reported eating sliders became ill; all 36 of those ill reported eating sliders, suggesting the sliders as the most likely culprit.” In addition, “100 percent of those interviewed with diarrhea ate pork sliders” ...

Shooters owner Lauren Boebert did not return a call seeking her perspective ...

11. Ironic that 'Shooters' was truth in advertising in a way.

I guess calling it 'Explosive Diarrhea' doesn't carry the same panache in Rifle, CO. Close second, though. The explosive could bring in a few rubes.

12. Petitioning your government is speaking to the local county commissioners about getting a stop sign.

A violent insurrection of Seditionists storming a public building and threatening the lives of elected representatives led by a would-be tyrant isn't that.

[lagomorph777]

13. So it would be OK if I petition her the same way?

[Crunchy Frog]

14. Maybe someone should "petition" her.

The exact same way the "petitioning" happened on 1/6.

15. petitioning the government

what would they be calling it if it were Biden supporters storming the Capitol? petitioning the government?

[jmowreader]

16. So let me guess...

Robespierre beheading the King of France and half the population was petitioning the government.

Oliver Cromwell beheading the King of England was petitioning the government.

Lenin having Tsar Nicholas and his whole family bayoneted to death was petitioning the government.

Would it be possible to petition the government to take Lauren Boebert 50 miles inside Glacier National Park and make her walk back to civilization with no shoes and no gun?
