‘You’re a child,’ Texas state lawmaker tells Beto O’Rourke after Dem calls his Twitter message...
Fox News ^ | 09/13/2019 | Dom Calicchio |

Briscoe Cain, a member of the Texas House of Representatives, had posted a Twitter message during Thursday’s Democratic debate in Houston, after O’Rourke said he planned to take away high-powered weapons from civilians if elected president.

“Hell yes, we’re gonna take your AR-15,” O’Rourke, a former congressman from El Paso, Texas, said during the debate.

“My AR is ready for you Robert Francis,” Cain responded, using O’Rourke’s birth name.

O’Rourke made it clear he didn’t interpret Cain’s tweet to be a joke.

“This is a death threat, Representative,” O’Rourke wrote. “Clearly, you shouldn’t own an AR-15—and neither should anyone else.”

Cain replied: “You’re a child Robert Francis.”

An AR-15 is not a high power weapon. Most deer hunter won't use it as it is not powerful enough. They consider it inhumane.

Robert Francis is the guy who wore a dress in a band and served his wife excrement on a cracker.

HOORAY Briscoe Cain!

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn’t love FREEDOM enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.” Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn ,

The real story is Twitter removed Cain’s tweet because of “death threat” and from what I read they removed every tweet that supported Cain but left up libtard death threats against Cain. Clown World.

Hi.

You are correct. Almost all states will not allow deer hunting with a 5.56mm cartridge.

Some states even disallow 7.62 for deer, big game hunting.

Just sayin.

5.56mm

A better phrasing would have been echoing the Goliad flag, “Come and get them”

Booby Beto Struggles to Conjure Support for his losing 2020 bid.
He desperately campaigned in Mexico but has not figured out that Hispanics will not support:
<><> a has-been punk rocker in a print dress,
<><> an over-the-hill skateboarder,
<><> a dirt eating schizophrenic,
<><> a pleasure-seeker who enjoys watching third trimester abortions.

From this point, refer to him as ‘robert francis’....a juvenile pretending to be an adult. Drop the ‘Beto’ gimmick-name.

Republicans better sharpen their oppo-research.

This was out there last time he ran but never surfaced in the campaign.

Drunk driving mug shot....................punk rocker in a print dress.

=================================

And this

BETO SLAPPED DOWN BY THE LEFT----Left-wing activists and liberal journalists
mocked “Beto” after he told Vanity Fair that he was “born” to run for president.
The left says he "reeks of white male privilege." (Excerpt) Read more at breitbart.com ...

================================

Imbeciles like Beto, desperate for traction, makes it up as he falls farther in the polls....
The moron actually said police shoot blacks “solely based on the color of their skin”...with not a scintilla of evidence.
This we know: Beto is about two burritos short of a Taco Bell special....and we have proof.

Very good, Barto O’Simpson! It IS a death threat and you should learn from that.

. . . Exactly . . . and other a$$h0les who think just like he does. Can't you just imagine what this power hungry creep would be like if he managed to win?

NEVER EVER vote for someone who has a strong lust for power. I see that trait in ALL the Democrat co-conspirators running for President.

It isn't fair to compare Beto to a child.

Most children eventually grow up.
