Little Big Man: The 2nd Amendment is Obsolete, Said Congressman Who Wanted To Nuke Omaha
2025-03-21
Now he’s spouting stuff while going after Musk and Tesla. The piece below is from 2018 and shows his long term outlook is still violent against all who have different points of view.
[MonsterHunterNation] Last week a congressman embarrassed himself on Twitter. He got into a debate about gun control, suggested a mandatory buyback—which is basically confiscation with a happy face sticker on it—and when someone told him that they would resist, he said resistance was futile because the government has nukes.

And everybody was like, wait, what?

Of course the congressman is now saying that using nuclear weapons on American gun owners was an exaggeration, he just wanted to rhetorically demonstrate that the all-powerful government could crush us peasants like bugs, they hold our pathetic lives in their iron hand, and he’d never ever advocate for the use of nuclear weapons on American soil (that would be bad for the environment!), and instead he merely wants to send a SWAT team to your house to shoot you in the face if you don’t comply.

See? That’s way better.

But this post isn’t about that particular line from one foolish congressman. It’s about all of the silly left wing memes that have popped up since, trying to justify the congressman’s basic premise that the 2nd Amendment is obsolete for resisting tyranny, and the government would obliterate anyone who failed to comply. Like this one:...

Okay, so let’s say Congressman Swalwell gets his wish, and the government says turn them in or else.
The honourable gentleman from California talks big — especially when drunk — but fortunately he has no control over the nation’s weapons or much of anything else. Despite that particular bit of political stupidity, not to mention his earlier association with the lovely honeypot spy from China, Miss Fang Fang, and his current obsession with Teslas, his constituents send the former prosecutor back to the House in each election with overwhelming majorities. Besides, anything by Larry Correia is worth rereading for the sheer joy of his invective.

#3   they hold our pathetic lives in their iron hand,

Too bad someone can't show him the true meaning of the 2nd. A 9mm would show him we don't need nukes for his kind.

The 'congressman' has just violated his oath of office.

There has been a lot of talk about the US accepting parts of Canada as the 51+ states.

I wonder if Canada will take California in exchange?
Or, Trump could just use it as a THREAT against them and Mexico also.
