Girls need to know how to protect themselves.
Does she support the “defund the police” movement? If yes, then she expects the guards at her gated community to protect her kids. Law-abiding citizens with guns are a threat only to crooks and fascists.
I hear the UK and Australia are 100% violent crime free since they banned guns, move there.
I do not want to be shot by any weapon, but if you gave me a choice, I’d be shot by a 5.25 full-metal-jacket bullet, from an AR-15 before being shot by a soft-nosed .30 from a bolt-action, non-assault style hunting rifle, or a .357 revolver with a hollow-point.
Just saying, the term “Assault Weapon” does not make it more deadly.
Further proof that our military had been socially engineered and dumbed down. How did a moron like this serve? Or that leftist SECDEF Austin?
The Clinton era assault weapons ban was in force during Columbine, but it didn’t keep girls safe . . . or boys, or teachers . . .
I am sorry but I don’t want the government to protect me.
Sorry, USA, for this poor excuse of a Senator, but the GOP alternative was Mark Kirk who who would say the same crap and vote the same way.
The entire point of the 2nd Amendment was to protect ourselves from a tyrannical government, like the one we currently have.
Weakness and stupidity are not good methods of protection. Add to that ignorance and laziness, which is the only excuse for not doing your homework. This is Duckworth’s current milieu. The truth is that the Democrat Party is overseeing the decline of law and human rights in this country, and she wants to make sure the Constitution is made irrelevant and that no law abiding citizen can alter that result. I don’t really think this is such a good idea.
Tammy Duckworth wants her daughters to live in a country where they’ll be coddled from cradle to grave by a loving government. But when no one is left who can stand on their own two feet, society and the economy collapse and the strong have to lift everything back up again. Greece got just a taste of what that’s like a few years ago and they’ve endured severe economic pain ever since.
What Tammy fails to understand is that the myth of the all-knowing, all-powerful, benevolent government is exactly that. Government is slow, inefficient, uncaring, and expensive. The bigger it gets, the worse it works. If Tammy wants her daughters protected, she needs to raise them such that they’re able to protect themselves. Protect themselves economically, protect themselves physically, and protect themselves mentally. Failure to do so under the idea that government will just handle everything is child neglect and shirking responsibility.
In other words, not only is Tammy Duckworth a failure of a legislator, she’s also a failure as a mother.
more evidence that the 19th amendment was horrendous for the USA ...
Go back to Thailand Tammy
I am so sick of these immigrants coming in here , ascending to political power and then trying to push us around.
Really sick of it .
Not one of them cone from countries that allow Americans to have any rights or power whatsoever. Thailand included.
Disarming families will not protect your children Duckworthless.
Ok, we cancel guns and the police, exactly who and how do you protect your daughters? Good plan lady, especially by someone whose office is behind an military controlled barricade with ARMED National Guard.
I absolutely despise this evil woman.
She is using her war wounds from Iraq as a shield to ram Stalinism and other communist ideologies onto We The People.
If she tried her Bolshevik crap during WWII, General Patton would have slapped her silly and kicked her ass out of the hospital.
Duckworth is merely the sock puppet of Durbin. She says everything he wants her to say.
Who woke up Tammy Duckworthless?? She is up for re-election in 2022 and probably thinks she needs to show her face once in a great while.
Duckworthless is very beatable if the Illinois GOP can find a decent candidate to run against her.
“...her daughters can grow up in a country that will “protect them.”
And getting rid of the police and ICE will protect them how?
Anyway, whatever happened to girl power? Now, on TV and the movies, the girls are tougher and more rapacious than any male predator. You don’t have to call 9-1-1, just dial them up.
