Watch: Josh Hawley Roasts 'Gun Violence' Advocate With His Own Words

After Charlie Kirk was assassinated by a sniper, the left pulled out the usual tropes about “assault weapons” and “weapons of war.” Following the arrest of the (alleged) sniper, we learned that his family was conservative. The left then pulled out manipulated data that inferred that “most” of the violence in America is committed by the “right-wing.”

The left dogpiled on both of those tropes and conflated them into "a conservative MAGA guy killed Kirk with a weapon of war.” Neither trope was accurate.  

David Hogg remains one of the left’s most vocal advocates for taking everyone’s guns away, disguising his plea as a call to stop gun violence. I recently wrote about Hogg taking the Kirk murder and turning the spotlight onto his brand – claiming that he, too, is a martyr. In the past, Hogg has been very vocal and very wrong.  

While Biden’s auto-pen was in office, his administration either hired or used a lot of people who seemed to be very on-brand for his administration, aka: from the alphabet soup mafia maniacs, to science-denying gender-bending admirals, to gun-confiscation advocates, the latter of which come out of the woodwork when there is a shooting that doesn’t involve Chicago or any other major metro area.  

No matter how many times the millions of gun owning Americans don’t commit crimes, if a transgender nut, or a leftist loon shoots up a school, all guns are the problem. It isn’t individuals who pull the trigger; it is the gun’s fault — like when a car kills someone, it’s not the drunk behind the wheel.  

During Biden’s term of office, part of the agenda for his appointees was to push nonsense “cures” for the “spread of gun violence.” Their cure is to take away everyone’s guns, but the next best thing would be to write a report. That manifested in a report from the "Office of Gun Violence Prevention" that stole language from other white papers, which employed made-up tripes and tropes by leftist advocates pushing leftist agendas. Many of those reports followed George Floyd’s death. When “gun violence advocates” weren’t blaming cops, they were blaming the lack of “equity” in solving “gun violence.”

Using academic gibberish and doggerel free form that Dr. Jill would be proud of, they claimed, over and over again, that if we just had more “diversity,” the gun violence problem would no longer be a problem.  

A guy named Gregory Jackson Jr. appeared before a Senate committee on Tuesday. He was “Deputy Director of Gun Violence Prevention” during Biden’s term. Jackson was shot in D.C. 12 years ago. Jackson described the event:  

"In April 2013, I was caught in the middle of crossfire when a bullet shot and hit me in two arteries, nearly costing me my life," he tells PEOPLE. "I'll never forget arriving in the hospital and being told I only had about 26 minutes to live." 

Huh? A “bullet shot”? It shot itself? No mention of the person who shot him. Question: Would someone tell a patient that he had about “26 minutes to live”? I'm betting, no. Based on Mr. Jackson's creative memory, I was not surprised that Jackson, while appearing for questioning in front of a Senate committee, was a bit confused by his own creative writing. In that report (which, again, seems to be lifted from numerous other “advocate” papers), Jackson advocates for a solution. More Cow Bell!   

Highlighted with an exhibit by Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO), the report suggests:

"Conduct a culturally competent community-wide risk assessment - just as you would for any disease 0 identifying the most salient risk factors and environmental root causes of gun violence among the communities and individuals most harmed. Identify or acknowledge the need for safe space initiatives led by lesbian, gay, bisexual, two spirit, trans and gender non-conforming people."

If we just had more disabled illegal alien lesbians with a healthy dose of two spirits in charge, gun violence might be a thing of the past. Jackson got roasted by Hawley: 

If two-spirits cannot agree on a solution, then what? Do they call in a non-binary fury for the tie-breaker?
