For some reason this week, multiple Republican members of Congress decided to switch out
their typical American flag lapel pen for a lapel pen in the shape of an AR 15 rifle.
Now, as it stands right now, we don't know exactly why Republicans decided to switch
out their patriotic pins for their more violent imagery.
But the three members of Congress who have been seen on tape wearing these pins include,
of course, George Santos, uh, Republican representative Anna Paul Luna of Florida, and representative
Andrew Clyde of Georgia.
Again, no clear reason as to why they suddenly decided, you know what?
I'm gonna wear an AR 15 lapel pen.
Uh, we do not know if these members of Congress coordinated, but my best guess would be that
these were probably given to them because I mean, they were all identical.
So I don't think the three of these individuals went out shopping together.
No, that, that doesn't seem right.
I mean, George Santos, as far as we know, doesn't have any friends in Congress, but
kind of seems like the kind of thing that maybe a lobbyist may have handed out.
Maybe an organization could have handed those out to Republicans, but only three of them
were ghoulish enough to actually put them on.
But what it tells me is this, the AR 15 is a product, right?
And that's of course the shape of the little palp pin.
It's not just a regular handgun.
It's not a generic firearm.
It is a very specific type of firearm and happens to be, you know, the weapon of choice
for many of the people that go out there and commit these mass atrocities.
But they're advocating for a product, not for your Second Amendment rights.
That's not what this is.
If it was only about the Second Amendment, you could have put a musket there.
You could have put a handgun, you put a, could have put a, a, a shotgun.
Why the AR 15?
Because again, once you take that step, you're no longer just an advocate of the Second Amendment,
as I'm sure these Republicans would like to claim.
You're advocating for a product, a product that is designed to kill as many people, as
many human beings as possible in as little time as possible.
You're showing that you value that product, not the rights from the Second Amendment.
That is not what this is about.
Folks, do not get this confused.
You are saying you care more about that product than you do about the lives of American citizens
than you care about the lives of your constituents.
That's what that pen tells me.
And I want to know who gave you the pens.
There is no way you will not convince me that these
Three morons went out shopping together, all came across the same pin and thought, Ooh,
this would be good.
We can be matching.
That didn't happen.
Who gave you the pins?
Who are they lobbying for?
But I do wanna say thank you.
You know, it's kind of like a NASCAR driver, right?
You're, you're wearing the little sign of your sponsor right there on your uniform.
So now we get to know exactly who you are advocating on behalf of.
And it's pretty obvious at this point that it's certainly not the American citizens.
You are advocating for a product put out by a company whose job it is to make profits.
And you idiots thought you were taking a stand for the Second Amendment.
You got played probably again, by a lobbyist or an organization, and you were too stupid
to even realize it.
