Jackson Lee: Arms Dealer Freed in Griner Swap 'Has Not Killed Americans' — 'His Weapons Might Have Been Used to Kill Americans'
[BREITBART] On Friday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s "The ReidOut," Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee
...the clownish U.S. Representative-for-life for Texas's 18th congressional district, serving since 1995. The district includes most of inner-city Houston. She is noted for her lack of tact and intellect. She is a member of the Democratic Party, and almost its epitome...
(D-TX) stated that Viktor Bout, the arms dealer who was serving time in prison for agreeing to supply weapons to U.S. agents posing as Colombian holy warriors to kill Americans, freed by the Biden administration in the prisoner swap to secure the release of Brittney Griner from Russia, is "a nasty, bad" person, but "He has not killed Americans." Although, Jackson Lee noted that Bout’s "weapons might have been used to kill Americans."

Jackson Lee stated, "Let me say this, no one knows the story of Paul — of the weapons dealer, if you will. And — as the facts would tell them, he was sentenced to 25 years, he served 11 to 16 years, I don’t know the — I can’t remember the exact number. But in actuality, his weapons might have been used to kill Americans. He has not killed Americans. I’m not saying he’s not a nasty, bad guy. But I will tell you that I believe that Americans should know that the illusory sovereignty of their nation will always be behind them and they’ll never be forgotten. Brittney Griner deserved this fight to be put forward. So does Paul Whelan."

"Now, children..."
"Preach, Reverend!"
"I figure, no brother would murder his -----.
Well, church, am I right?"
"Sure as Jesus was white!"
"So, who does all this killing?"
"My trigger!"

#4 I shout at my guns all the time.

Hard to get them to watch the training and safety videos.

Sometimes they won't even leave their room to play.
