Lauren Boebert is beneath contempt.

Lauren Boebert is an asshole. She was handed a pin honoring the victims of Uvalde’s mass shooting & she THREW it in the trash. No acknowledgement. Just threw it in the trash. This is how a sitting Congresswoman treats gun violence victims. Beneath contempt.





Today, we’re passing out pins of the green converse that Maite Rodriguez was wearing when she was killed by gun violence at Robb Elementary School to members of congress.



..........................

I can't separate the video from the tweet. I did post the pin she was given. She grabs it, looks at it then storms over to a trashcan and tosses it in.



RIP Maite Rodreguez

OUR mindsets? To better understand what WE think? Why do we have to do all the outreach “understanding”?

Why’s that on US? Seems to me it’s THEIR side that needs to do some of the work on some outreach to US.

WOW, a prominent activist just DESTROYED Lauren Boebert for trashing an anti-gun violence pin.

So great to see her finally get punished into complete silence: 🧵👇

"WTF is wrong with you?

A few ideas... You're a bag of fermented sh*t who believes only in becoming rich off of using your power to get more innocent children shot in schools...

You are walking trash, tempting karma to come after you for your relentless pursuit to see more kids dead."

After giving a LONG and biting list, he hit the nail on the head:

"Did that pin disgust you, Lauren? Call me a bleeding heart liberal, but what disgusts me is knowing someone as callous and heartless as you represents Americans in Congress."

Then he gave her a lesson on the meaning of the anti-gun violence pin she chucked out right in front of the activists.

"Listen, you NRA-controlled demon puppet: Did you know that pin was of Maite Rodriguez's green Converse shoes, which were the only way her parents could identify her, due to her face being ripped apart by an assault rifle in the Uvalde massacre?

Of course you did.

You put that pin where you want parents' hopes of saving their children to be – in the f**king trash."

Then he REALLY dug in to the hard truth she can't face.

"That's why your opponent Adam Frisch has raised more than triple what you have."

BOOM.

The beautiful pain doesn't stop there. You gotta read her punishment in full now.

I hope it blows back on her and others as it should and repels at least a few. But it's actually important to admit that it's not about Uvalde.

It's about an insane battle between tribes that have far, far more in common than not and has grown so out of control that it threatens destruction to both.
