GOP Rep. Debbie Lesko Is Mad She Accidentally Said She Would Shoot Her Own Grandchildren
https://www.thedailybeast.com/gop-rep-debbie-lesko-is-mad-she-accidentally-said-she-would-shoot-her-own-grandchildrenRep. Debbie Lesko (R-AZ) confused and outraged critics when she seemed to say in a floor speech that she would shoot her own grandchildren to protect gun rights.
Rep. Debbie Lesko (R-AZ) caused a stir this week when she took the floor of the House to oppose a gun safety bill and in the process seemed to vow to shoot her own grandchildren.
“I have five grandchildren,” the congresswoman began in her Tuesday speech. “I would do anything—anything—to protect my five grandchildren. Including, as a last resort, shooting them, if I had to, to protect the lives of my grandchildren.” Growing more angry, Lesko then accused Democrats of trying to “take away my right to protect my grandchildren” and “the rights of law-abiding citizens to protect their own children.”
