Cruz Wags Finger At GOPers Who Skipped NRA Convention After Uvalde

Not to brag or anything, but Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) knows better than to let a mass shooting in his state keep him from going to the National Rifle Association’s convention in Houston three days later.

“I thought it was important to be there,” Cruz said during his podcast on Thursday. “I was disappointed to see so many others make the decision not to be there.”

The senator complained that the NRA was being treated unfairly in the wake of the elementary school shooting in Uvalde, Texas, which left 19 kids and two adults dead.

“The media and the Democrats, they want to label anyone who believes in the Second Amendment, anyone who defends the Second Amendment, as responsible for this horrific crime, and the NRA in particular is probably their favorite boogeyman,” he said.

The 2A says “the right to kill mass groups of children and adults shall not be abridged.” The National Russian Asset organization clearly agrees.

And it isn't working anymore now that we can see clearly who needs to be gone.

Saying stupid stuff to try to get yourself out of trouble is not gonna work this time.

Smart people acting stupid is how you know they’re crooked.

And, I’m pretty sure everybody just wants those child killing weapons melted down and destroyed. You trying to name who Democrats are mad at is just one more stupid thing you’re doing.

We gotta boil this down, folks…it’s not about individuals or groups. It’s the weapons. That is what is killing our children. Republican support for selling those weapons to anyone and everyone makes them an accessory to murder.
