Nutjob Anti-gun Democrat Lunges at GOP Colleague After His Gun Control Bill Fails

GP:

Chaos erupted in a Tennessee House Criminal Justice Subcommittee meeting Wednesday when far-left State Representative Justin J. Pearson (D-Memphis) lunged at a Republican colleague in a fit of rage, hurling insults and pointing fingers—literally—after his anti-gun bill went down in flames.

The showdown started when Pearson pushed his latest gun-grabbing scheme, HB 1392, a bill that would’ve gutted Tennessee’s permitless carry law—a hard-won victory for Second Amendment patriots.

Under current law, law-abiding Tennesseans can carry firearms without jumping through bureaucratic hoops, a right Pearson wanted to strip away.

Thankfully, the committee saw through the nonsense and crushed the bill in a 7-2 vote, according to NBC39. more here

  1. Your average God fearing nation loving patriarchy advocating citizen will put up with a lot of shit from his government; lock-dowwns, stolen elections, getting rifted out of the military for refusing the jab, civil rights abridged, even anarcho-tyranny (governmental entities refusing to protect citizens while simultaneously prosecuting innocent conduct), but the line in the sand is gun rights, and ability to protect one’s self and family.

    Preston Brooks had it right.

  2. Pearson has a history of this kind of victim theatrics. He’s an agitator who has been posturing for a higher level of “public” office since he got elected. (I put “public” in quotes because he couldn’t give a shit about the public.) It’s all about him!

  3. I found it hilarious that the anti gun BF of a 40 year family friend, that is also anti gun, got up and walked over to me as he had no good information come backs and tried to tower over me with a scowl on his face like he was trying to intimidate me. I was sitting next to my long time friend and he had been on the other side of her until then.

    I had at least 3 things vying for first out of my grinning mouth as he did this.

    My friend : “He’s smiling!” she said in amazement.

    My eyes stayed on him, because he might try something, but the grin was about:

    1. You are 72 y.o., 85% my height, 1/2 my weight, 1/2 my strength, and with arthritic knees – you have no idea you are seconds away from needing serious medical attention if you try something. You haven’t talked to any of the guys I’ve dispatched or witnessed my abilities. Hard lesson coming in if you jump.

    2. Is this what you do with Barbara when you’re losing an argument? Try to intimidate her into agreeing with you?

    3. You just made my point about needing personal protection from people that want to harm you.

    I was grinning because all 3 of these were true and I certainly had no fear of him.

    But he was talking about not believing what I said about Britain and how you can’t defend yourself against home invaders any more and they also have knife restrictions that make everyone vulnerable to those who won’t obey the laws.

    “I don’t believe you” with a mean look on his face.

    I picked a 4th thing. Listen to your words. You don’t “believe” me. These are things you can look up and verify on your own. I said calmly, still with a big smile on my face. He was being so stupid and childish at the moment.

    His face dropped with realization I was right.

    We don’t need to argue whether factual things we can look up are real or not.

    But threatening violence to win a gun argument has to be the stupidest tactic ever.

  4. @Diogenes Sarcastica” –
    …Notice who was cheering him on and saving his ass from a big ass beatdown…”

    Yes, it was an activist Mom from the Covenant School shooting two years ago. This whole display was a staged and choreographed act.

  5. “We have a responsibility to protect our kids and our communities,” Pearson whined
    Your responsibility is too instill in your communities responsibility and education.
    Passing it off to laws that strip rights from the innocent is a cowards way out.

    All political power comes from the barrel of a gun. The communist party must command all the guns, that way, no guns can ever be used to command the party.

  7. TN Tuxedo, the IRS is shutting down its office in Franklin, Tn. in Sept. and moving to Memphis, good luck with that. The IRS employees who choose to move to Memphis can keep their jobs. I wonder how many are foolish enough to accept that offer. Who in their right mind would want to live in Memphis one of the most corrupt cities in the country.
