So Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) is standing up for the semi-automatic weapons honor: she claims that Jesus only died because he didnt have enough of them, effectively victim-blaming the Messiah.
...
The little Twitter trolls, they like to say, Ah Jesus didnt need an AR-15! How many AR-15s do you think Jesus woulda had?' Boebert said at the Charis Christian Center in Colorado Springs this past Saturday during their Family Camp Meeting event.
Well, he didnt have enough to keep his government from killing him, so she joked. The crowd laughed.

"We need our guns to protect ourselves from a tyrannical government. That's what the founders intended"
Bull💩....you're telling me that our "founders" were so scared that the government they created would be so corruptible that ordinary citizens would need to be prepared to take arms against said government? What a colossal mischaracterization of the intent of the 2nd amendment and a distortion of American history.
I would expect nothing more from this moron who seems less educated that the average fourth grader
