Debbie Dingell’s daddy issues

American Thinker: Congresswoman Debbie Dingell (D-Michigan) has “daddy issues.”  She thinks her “issues” trump the Second Amendment’s guarantee that the “right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.”

Last week, the Democratic-controlled House passed H.R. 8, mandating federally licensed dealer background checks on private gun transfers.  The legislation would make it illegal for your cousin to sell you a hunting rifle without a background check, and it would make it illegal for hunting partners and neighbors to swap or sell firearms to each other.

During the debate on the House floor, Rep. Dingell let loose with an unhinged, hysterical rant about how she was terrified as a child because her father was “mentally ill” and “shouldn’t have had a gun.”  When her mother bought a gun for self-protection, she was terrified, of that, too:

I had to HIDE IN THE CLOSET with my siblings, wonder if we — wondering if we would live or DIE!

One night, I kept my father from killing my mother. He SHOULDN’T HAVE HAD A GUN! My mother went out and bought a gun! And then all of us were scared to death about HER gun and my father’s gun. We had TWO GUNS to worry about!

NO child, NO woman, NO man should ever have to go through THAT!!!

  1. So we have a congresswoman with a family history of mental illness. What disqualifies someone from leading this country, other than beating the anointed Democrat in an election?

  2. Her feelings do not trump my Constitutional and God-given rights.
    You are proven to be an unAmerican despotic POS to support HR8.
    Democrats are opening the door to the Second American Civil War.

  3. She thinks her “issues” trump the Second Amendment’s guarantee that the “right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.”
    Luckily, Trump trumps her issues.
    How does being the spouse of a politician quality someone to be a politician?

  4. The problem isn’t guns, the problem is the coarsening and unraveling of society that people like you have brought about that’s created the violence that grows daily. Your stupid idea’s and the dividing of people for your political benefit has created all the animosity.
    Solution: STFU and mind your own business.

  5. What a dingbat! I’m glad her mother had access to a gun to protect HER and her siblings from a mentally ill man. Moving could have been a good option but my BS antenna is up. How long did the hide in the closet?

  6. NYT 1999
    Mrs. Dingell grew up wealthy in Michigan, a descendant of the Fishers who founded the Fisher Body Company. As the oldest of four children, she was perhaps most attuned to what she described as violent quarreling between her parents, the source of her aversion to guns.

    She said her father, David Insley, kept a collection of firearms and sometimes waved them around during these fights. Mr. Insley confirmed that he owned guns but said he could not recall brandishing them, then sighed: ”I didn’t do a very good job of parenting with guns, and I feel badly about that.”

    Many Congressional aides privately grumbled that Mrs. Dingell was more like an abrasive, always angling for credit, forever sniffing out power and serially befriending anyone who had it.

  7. Unless you are also mentally insane, you’re not going to be scared of a gun. Scared of your father yes, scared of a gun that your mother bought to shoot your crazy Dad before he shot you, not likely.

  8. @BUTTHEADICUS alter ego of RADIOATIONMAN March 6, 2019 at 5:21 am – “How about a law that libtards & demoratz
    can’t have guns.”

    That would cut not just gun crime but overall crime by 90%. Mass shootings = all dems. Murders = high %age ethnic groups = also dems. Terrorism = dems.

  9. With the supposed mental illness history of her family, will she put herself on the lists in states where they have red flag laws?

    Personally I think she’s full of bulloney.
