Allow me to introduce you to Congresswoman Debbie Lesko of Arizona, who is currently running for office unopposed in her district.

She would like America to know she loves her grandchildren so much she would shoot them if necessary. 😳

But liberals are the problem, right? 😏

1. She would shoot them?

How is that "protecting" them?

[Nevilledog]

2. Who knows.... we have crazy people in our government

[3catwoman3]

3. She would kill them to protect them...

…from what/whom?

I haven’t watched the clip yet - not sure I can bear to.

5. She doesn't say anything about the circumstance.

She simply says that she would shoot them to protect their lives. Literally, without any sense of embarrassment, she says, "I would shoot my grandchildren to protect their lives". Well if you shoot them and kill them, then you would not be protecting their lives. You would have just murdered them and destroyed their lives.


Typical for a Conservative. They have ZERO substance to their thinking. The idea of shooting someone to protect their "life" seems stupid on its face.

I can even undertake the argument to kill someone to protect them from a fate "worse than death", but you still acknowledge that you are actually ending their lives to protect them from something worse. For example, if you were being hunted by a right wing government that was set on torturing you to death because you would not submit to changing your political view, or belonged to some hated group (I.E. Jews), you might consider dying more palatable to going through that torture, indignity, and ultimately death.

Conservatives are so vapid and unintelligent, that this woman thinks that she is making a cogent argument for her right to own a deadly weapon. I reserve the right to kill my grandchildren... which is where in the Constitution? Why would you go to killing your grandchildren to defend your right to own and carry a firearm. That is murder. Why do we want someone who would murder their grandchildren to have a gun?

8. To save the grandchildren, we had to destroy them.

[Caliman73]

10. Yup. Same argument...

villages, children, whatever. Sometimes you have to destroy them to save them.

I find it interesting that some people are surprised that Conservative arguments do not really change over time. Umm... they have been promoting the same worldview that justified Monarchy since the 1600's and 1700's, the only real change is who they consider "the chosen elite" when they moved on from hereditary monarchy to "wealthy White people".

18. She is saying she would shoot her children to save her grandkids

and the bill in question would take away that "right."

[blogslug]

4. That woman ain't making no sense

at all

[Nevilledog]

16. Might have an Alex Jones stench to it

There's an extremely disturbing parallel here to Alex Jones ranting a few weeks ago that we might be forced to kill our own families rather than let the New World Order have them. Who talks like this??

6. I have little idea what thoughts wallow in those tiny brains, B U T

she is PROBABLY thinking that she would shoot them if they ever became "filthy libruls" in order to protect them from the evils of socialism. Who fucking knows with these idiots.

[edbermac]

7. She'd make Magda Goebbels proud.

Couldn’t imagine her six children living in a world without National Socialism, so she’ll just kill them.

[Delmette2.0]

9. I think it was about Red Flag laws.

She talked about someone going to court and having your guns taken away and you are not there.

If I am right her grandchildren need to keep away from her.

[dweller]

11. Child Protective Services needs to step up

and have an intervention investigation like right now
JFC …


✌🏻

[thesquanderer]

12. Honestly, I suspect she was trying to say she would shoot a person who was threatening their lives.

[Cosmocat]

14. Right

Buffoon getting all emotional about ... guns.

[prodigitalson]

19. Yes. Including their parents. ny

[mopinko]

13. whattheactualfuck?

that's english, right? i mean, it sounds like english, but....

[Demsrule86]

15. Magda Goebels used poison but the same

thing.

[BlueCheeseAgain]

17. First, I thought this came out a few weeks ago.

Second, I guess it was clear to me that she meant she would shoot anyone who was threatening her grandchildren.
