Default Idiot Democrat Congressman Injures Reporter at Rifle Range

https://thehill.com/homenews/campaig...ange-incident/

First, Tim Walze goes hunting to show how much of an avid sportsman he is, and can’t even load his own shotgun.

Now, this Democrat Representative, who is a veteran and should know better, takes a crowd to his gun range and shoots at steel targets that are way too close. A reporter catches a ricochet.

Stupid is as stupid does.

Thanks for showing the World that firearms and stupidity do not mix.

The photos are hilarious too. Kinzinger is basidally bracing the stock against his clavical... not in his pit. He's sighting through a Scope on a metal plate 15 feet away. WTF Could he see like that?! lol. And supposedly others who no more said there's cans of tannerite sitting on the bench... if so, if that ricochet had hit the can BOOM goes the dynamite... That would have made for hilarious headlines. Former Congressman blows himself up at local pistol range. AND WHO THE FUCK shoots a long gone on a pistol range?

The answer to that is pretty obvious.

Stupid Democrats.

People get hurt with firearms all the time. Burnt from hot brass, hit by ricochet, hit by shrapnel, misfire, double shot, etc. etc. There have been reports of guns firing off in the holster. That has nothing to do with a persons politics.

Do you remember this guy.

And those are examples of improper handling of firearms . . .what the shooting community has traditionally referred to as "gun safety". . . .the safe handling of firearms. As a child and teen, I learned how to shoot and safe gun handling at summer camp in the Boy Scouts. As an adult I have fired guns in competitive matches and while hunting . . .Firearms do not just go off spontaneously, nor do they independently direct themselves inapropriatly. . Guns are as inanimate as a car or stone, both of which may be lethal. Hot gasses do not burn if a shooter (or spectator) is not exposed to the discharge in some way.

That cinematographer would not have died if the gun was not pointed at her chest . . .and it did not simply discharge a bullet by itself.

A year after my uncle passed away, my aunt found three firearms in the corner of his closet. They were items he returned from Europe with after WW-II. Even though one was the exact model of rifle Oswald used to shoot JFK with, it had not "gone off" by itself since 1945.

Sure, people are injured in shooting accidents, but if you examine the event, there is always some person behaving in an unsafe manner at the root of the unhappy event.

Politics and safe gun handling? It is my guess that statistically, more conservatives understand safe firearms handling than do liberals . . .just speculation on my part.

Is that real agreement or sarcasm? I welcome the former, but I sometimes can't recognize the latter . . .

You are not wrong, but I would still hesitate to blame liberals for stupid firearm handling.

I think that the number of people acting in unsafe ways is consistent across party lines. i.e. despite what some in this forum might think Conservatives aren’t any stupider than Liberals. But statistics show that conservatives are more likely to be gun owners. Therefore more conservatives than liberals are likely to act stupidly around guns. Despite knowing gun safety better.

But that line of thinking is as stupid as saying that more conservatives than liberals tend to own trucks and large suv’s. Trucks and SUV’s are more likely to kill pedestrians in crashes, therefore conservatives kill pedestrians.

Do you see the problem?

All you can really glean from the article is that a particular democratic congressman was acting in an unsafe manner and that Josh Hawley is kind of a jerk and the news source used it to generate views.

Any evidence for you to believe that or is that just a SWAG?

No, but I do think politics make people act stupidly.

And what is the point of this thread with regard to politics ?


All this is, is an isolated incident that some news organizations create a headline from.
And some readers get sucked in by any headline.

Ironic that when a MAGA attacks the media it's a good thing - we certainly see enough of that here, eh?

I'm surprised they aren't bitching that the honorable representative didn't finish the job.

According to the GOP we use the DOJ. Haven't you heard that we have weaponized that entire organization. We do it with both a Vulcan mind meld, and the fact that we have Manchurian candidates everywhere.

Some redhats actually going to believe that

Another failed attempt by the party of weak men and miserable women to flaunt their nonexistent masculinity. A freaking grade schooler could look at their “range” pics and know it’s an accident waiting to happen. Loved the rifle with a bipod and 20x optic for targets you could spit on, and the guy with the buttstock up on his traps. Fucking morons are lucky to be alive.
