They might not like the welcome they get
Marjorie Taylor Greene urges her fans to murder more federal workers.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., suggested at a recent Republican fundraiser in Alabama that Southerners could threaten President Joe Biden’s “police state friends” with guns if they show up at their homes asking about their coronavirus vaccination status.
The late-July event in Dothan was closed to the media, but a video clip of some of her comments leaked, according to the Alabama Political Reporter.
What’s the world coming to when a pro-fascist member of the House can’t foment insurrection in private?
“You lucky people here in Alabama might get a knock on your door, because I hear Alabama might be one of the most unvaccinated states,” Greene told the crowd, prompting cheers and applause over the state’s low vaccination rate. “Well, Joe Biden wants to come talk to you guys. He’s going to be sending one of his police state friends to your front door to knock on the door, take down your name, your address, your family members’ names, your phone numbers, your cellphone numbers, probably ask for your Social Security number and whether you’ve taken the vaccine or not.”
She continued: “What they don’t know is in the South, we all love our Second Amendment rights, and we’re not real big on strangers showing up on our front door, are we? They might not like the welcome they get.”
The feds don’t know the South has a lot of gun nuts? Of course they know that. They’d have to be remarkably oblivious not to know it in the light of recent events, not to mention people like Greene shouting about it constantly.
In remarks last month, Greene made another Nazi-era comparison regarding the coronavirus response, saying people who knock on doors encouraging vaccinations are “medical brown shirts,” referring to the paramilitary organization that helped facilitate the rise of the Nazis and Hitler.
No the Nazis and Hitler are on her team, not ours. She’s basically trying to spark another Kristalnacht every time she opens her mouth.
Ever notice how guns are essential to protecting their “liberty,” and everyone should have one in case the
Blue Lives Mattercops show up at their door; while voting is a thing that only rich white people should be able to do?#1: But guns held by black men are ample reason for the police to shoot even when the man has surrendered. These Blue Lives Matter crowd really just want to apply the second amendment to “real” citizens – no Democrats and no people of color allowed, and certainly no Muslims. In those cases, they will defend every thing the police do even to the point of murder.
The cheers and pride in Alabama’s bottom-of-the-barrel status in vaccinations. Better watch out, Mississippi isn’t far behind.
The asinine “plausible deniability” of saying they “love their Second Amendment rights”. Nope, didn’t say anything about guns or shooting people. Just harangue these unwelcome visitors about the RIGHT to own guns.
How ridiculous to be up in literal arms about this imagined threat of people asking for Social Security numbers in a region where people willingly give their SSNs to people like doctors and dentists to use as an ID number, in violation of the law.
What a bizarre mixture of fears: census, vaccines, public health initiatives, gun control.
Sackbut, that’s sort of like the people who believe the government is using vaccines to insert tracking chips, even as they willingly give up personal information to those who have tracking apparatuses more efficient than the government: Google, Facebook, Twitter, Amazon…
