AZ-SEN: US Republican Kari Lake tells supporters: 'Strap on a Glock' as election nears

[RandySF]

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Republican U.S. Senate candidate Kari Lake, an ardent supporter of former president Donald Trump, urged supporters in Arizona to "strap on a Glock" pistol as they prepare for what she called an intense six months leading up to the Nov. 5 elections.

"We are going to put on the armor of God. Then maybe strap on a Glock," Lake told a cheering audience at an Arizona rally on Sunday.

"You can put one (Glock) here," she said, touching her right hip. "And one in the back, or one in the front, whatever you guys decide."

Her campaign did not respond to queries seeking comment.

[CTyankee]

18. I wonder what she meant with "strap on"? Is there something going on that we don't know about?

Inquiring minds would like to know....

[sheshe2]

5. It's all they got.

Violence and hate is the soul of the maga party,.

[Cha]

Fucked up fans "strap on a Glock"?

How the fuck do you think that's going to make you Any LESS of a LOSER?

[magicarpet]

7. Fucking Fascists,...

Does anyone want to share a cupcake ?

[orangecrush]

8. Nutcase

I'd like to tell her what to do with a Glock

[MarineCombatEngineer]

9. Did she say strap on a Glock,

or was it strap on a cock?

[DENVERPOPS]

10. ROFLMAO MCE

How you been?

[MarineCombatEngineer]

11. Thanks.

Been good, very busy lately, that's why I haven't been posting as much as I usually do.
Have some time off due to my truck being in for her B service and a new clutch, them, back at it again.

Hope you're doing well also and good things are happening for you.
Peace out my friend
Daniel.

[DENVERPOPS]

31. Good to hear from you

Stay well and be Safe out there !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[orangecrush]

15. It was

A Freudian "slip"

[Sky Jewels]

25. A glock cock ...

It's two, two, two things in one!

[hay rick]

12. Looking for somebody else to pull the trigger.

Sick and cowardly.

[SleeplessinSoCal]

13. Remember the 2006 Macaca incident?

George Allen was apparently a potential presidential contender. But that relatively innocuous remark got him booted from the field. Today, anything goes.

16. For many rural people

Ranchers, isolated homes, etc., owning a firearm is a necessity.

They are tools, to protect against dangerous animals, and in areas where a police response may take a very long time.

They aren't used as low self esteem compensation, and legitimate owners don't stockpile body armour or other stuff used to go on an insane rampage.

[orangecrush]

23. Understand

And thanks for your post.

[Chakaconcarne]

21. I used to think that until MAGA showed up on the stage.

and the rhetoric and threat of violence increasing month after month and seeing these idiots are not budging.... and reading all the shit here on DU regularly doesn't put me at any greater east.

As I get older, I realize what is happening might not be as fleeting as I would have thought when I was younger. I have more to lose now and my love for and concern for the protection of my family has grown ever more.

FFS, I've contemplated getting an AR.. Never would have thought that 8-10 years ago.. but I'm headed that direction. WTF?

[Xavier Breath]

17. Good to see her outreach to moderates and undecideds continues. n/t

[Initech]

19. What in the absolute fuck is wrong with these people?

[Bettie]

20. Far, far more than any of us

could ever know....I doubt even a good therapist could make a dent in any of them.

I keep hearing that there are functional psychopaths in society....I suspect that the Republican party boasts a far larger percentage of them than society at large.

[Elessar Zappa]

24. They estimate 1-4% of the population is sociopathic or psychopathic.

That’s actually a frightening amount when you think about it. That’s like 3-12 million in our country alone. And yeah, I bet the Republican Party has a large percentage of them, especially their leadership.

[Bettie]

26. Exactly.....they are the type to be driven

to want power over others. Congresscritters have a lot of it, leadership even more.

And I can't think of a single Republican who seems to want to serve the people they represent more than they want to accumulate money and personal power.

[Owens]

27. She knows she is going to lose

So of course, they are going to resort to violence and threats.

[Irish_Dem]

28. GOP leaders ordering people to get violent.

This is what the GOP wants.
Violence and death.

[sop]

29. Jared Loughner used a Glock to shoot Gabby Giffords and 18 others in Tucson.

I'm sure Kari Lake remembers Sarah Palin's infamous "crosshairs map" targeting Giffords' district before the shooting. This woman makes MTG and Boebert look sane.

[Oneironaut]

30. Guns, AmIRight?

Aka the worst form of pandering to appeal to knuckle-dragging dummies.

[Initech]

32. So we're supposed to just casually overlook these *wink wink nudge nudge* violence threats? Fuck that.

God these people are scary.
