https://www.fox2detroit.com/news/gun-control-town-hall-at-firing-range-erupts-as-tempers-flare

COMMERCE TWP., Mich. (FOX 2) - A town hall on gun control featuring Congresswoman Haley Stevens ended early as tempers flared and the arguing turned to shouting Tuesday.

It was held at the Multi Lakes Conservation Association and organizers were not transparent as to what the town hall would be about when it was booked at the club. Many of the members did not find out until recently that it would be about guns and gun control.

...

"Somehow Fems for Dems booked this event using a different name," Maddock said. "The sweet woman I talked to said that it said Fems for Life on her calendar. We needed to show up here and tell Haley Stevens exactly what we think about her gun violence town hall behind held in a very Republican - this is a Republican stronghold."



--

I can't wait for Trump's coattails to help remove her and many other 1 Term Rental Freshman House Dems from office in 2020.

That this thread exists shows just how triggered cons get over everything. Ironic, isn't it?

I wouldn't say I'm triggered or even surprised at the fact that they booked a shooting range under a false name, or anything else like that. On the other hand, I am surprised by the fact that they went on a planned screaming tangent in a shooting range.

Pumping up gun control at a shooting range?  She didn't think this through, did she?

This probably wasn’t an astute decision for a person representing a light red seat

Considering that Trump is trailing in Michigan and the Republican Senate candidate is trailing by even more there will not be any coattails and Republicans won't be taking any seats

Gun control advocates go to a bunch of gun rights supporters and tell them they don't exist, that it's really just the NRA that is standing in the way of gun control.  Why do they expect that to work?

I saw this news clip earlier today, and noticed the large number of Trump supporters who were present there. This town hall was held at a pro-NRA gun range, in a staunchly Republican neighborhood within Stevens' district. Not sure if it was the wisest move for her to hold this event here. But in any case, though this district will definitely be competitive next year, and would probably be carried by Trump if he wins Michigan next year, I think that the long-term trends work against Republicans here. The Detroit suburbs are becoming more and more Democratic.

Uh huh. Those poor constituents, just innocent as a puppy, there pm;y for substantive dialogue on gun safety reforms. And mean "hysterical" b**ch comes in and says "out with NRA". Why would she say that? WHAT HAS THE NRA EVER DONE BAD??!?!



(woman brandishing Trump paraphernalia shouting "NRA, NRA, here to stay" at elected officials)



(constituents screaming and pounding fists while Representatives try to speak)





(woman on right begins to seemingly threaten constituent representative with "back off me", points finger and - I assume - a family member/friend/person of likeminded politics comes to also put pressure/add tension to situation)

This is all from the video, so I'll let you watch it and come to your own conclusion. FYI - the title of the reported piece is " Gun control town hall at firing range erupts as tempers flare" not "Crazy lady screams". Tensions escalated, and didn't start and end with Rep. Stevens.

In the words of the man on that woman's tank top - "there are good people on both sides" which, unlike the source's case, here probably applies. It's a tough issue and people get upset and angry. If you continue to read/watch the article & video you will hear that they came to divide up into smaller, more productive, constituent groups so it wasn't all lost.

(anyone can make someone look bad with a still image - doesn't fully reflect the situation nor intentions)

This clip does not do any service to anyone who was present there. And again, I don't think Stevens made the right call by holding the town hall here. Though of course, even if she had held it at a more friendly location, it's likely that Republican protesters would have showed up and "acted out" in any case. But tensions, I think, would have been calmed.

It takes a lot of guts to hold an event like this at such an unfriendly locale.  I doubt any minds were changed, but then again it requires the minds to exist in the first place.  Good on Rep. Stevens for trying! Smiley

There is a difference between Stevens and these people : She is a congresswoman and should act like an adult.

^ But on the other hand, the other people are adults and should therefore act like adults.

Blue avatars demanding that our congresspeople act like adults, when the GOP president conducts himself like a spoiled, narcissistic man-child and they ignore his misconduct. Nice.
