Lauren Boebert wants to carry her gun in the Capitol

[Horus]

I would generally say I'm pro-gun but I can't say I understand a lot of these people's desire to carry a gun everywhere they go like they're in a cowboy movie.

Ditto. This is fairly strange. I'm less inclined to believe she actually cares about carrying so much as maintaining her gimmick.

Nah I think she's a true believer. She certainly seems crazy enough.

MTG is absolutely a nutso true believer but I really think Boebert is just grifting.

The Capitol is one of the safest places you can be from homicides, given that there are literally Capitol police and security is obviously very tight.

But I'm fully convinced this is just a sh!tty attempt at a 'yas queen' moment in the age of social media. OK if she wants to carry lawfully with police permission, but making an announcement about it is the equivalent of grunting at the local gym. Showmanship like this makes our politics dumber and more sensationalized, not better for people.

Most of the time, taking guns into the federal legislature means you are launching a coup d'etat.

This applies to the Michigan revolutionaries from like April as well as to Lauren Boebert now I suppose. Lock her up for treason and rebellion I suppose.

What if some deranged South Carolinian comes at you with a cane?

She was elected to the House, not the Senate.
