Wisconsin state Rep. Bob Gannon (R) said gun-owning citizens should “help clean our society of these scumbags” in a Monday statement defending concealed carry laws, The Wisconsin State Journal reported.
Gannon’s statement came after a suspect, who was still at large, shot a man in a local mall following a dispute, according to the report.
Gannon said that allowing citizens to bring their guns into public spaces such as shopping malls would increase safety.
“Wisconsin does not have a death penalty law, but with significant practice and careful aim, law-abiding citizens can help clean our society of these scumbags,” Gannon reportedly said in the statement. “Criminals no longer have any fear of our courts or our prisons, so it’s time that the citizens of this fine state stand up and fight back.”
Gannon also said he wouldn’t shop at the mall where the shooting took place because he didn’t want to give money to an establishment that “believes my Second Amendment rights have to be left in the car.”
One Democratic colleague, state Rep. Chris Taylor, criticized Gannon’s comments as a call “for a vigilante uprising,” according to the State Journal.
I’m thinkin’ how-to suicide - videos to the ammosexuals bent on killing others before they kill themselves would be a good ‘scum-bag’ deterrent.
words have consequences and often simpletons like this guy never thing it thru…
there are people that might think that this idiot is a societal scumbag…
it just staggers the mind that these goons think armed citizens firing away in chaotic circumstances in crowded public spaces is going to result in anything other than innocent people being killed/wounded… forget kansas… what the fuck is going on in wisconsin that these malignant assholes are being elected.
“…but with significant practice and careful aim, law-abiding citizens can help…”
Yea because they called it the wild west until everybody started carrying guns and shooting all the people they assumed were bad guys on the spot…humm or was it the other way around…well what ever, things would be a lot safer with everyone walking around with loaded guns?
God damn these people are such dumb fucks!
