Dem Says Pro-Gun Demonstrations ‘Need to Be Canceled’

Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) said over the weekend that a gun rights group shouldn’t bother rescheduling a planned march through Houston’s Fifth Ward, and that these sorts of demonstrations “need to end.”

Open Carry Texas was set to march through the political subdivision of Houston, but had to postpone the event. According to the Houston Chronicle, Jackson Lee and others gathered to say they oppose the group’s effort to raise awareness about the right to openly carry rifles and shotguns in Texas.

“We come in peace,” said Jackson Lee. “On behalf of many thousands who live in this community that are minding their daily business, Open Carry’s efforts need to stop, need to be canceled, they need to end.”

The Chronicle said the Fifth Ward is an historically black neighborhood, and that Open Carry decided to hold an event there after being criticized for only holding events in “rich white neighborhoods.”

Have any of you come to the conclusion that when you hear the word “community” when spoken by some “race baiter” like this female “thing” (I won’t call it a human), it really means “black ghetto.”

This “thing” with an IQ of about 25 only represents blacks and absolutely none of the other races in her district.

Wouldn’t one say that she is the racist one?

This lee fool should be involuntarily committed by her family to save them embarrassment and to save us from her illogical spewing.
