Hell Yes! No, Yes Again, and Hell Maybe

U.S.A. -(AmmoLand.com)- “We support the Second Amendment. If you own a gun, keep that gun. Nobody wants to take it away from you – at least I don’t want to do that.” That’s what Robert Francis “Beto” O’Rourke told voters in an April 2018 radio interview, when he was running against Republican Ted Cruz in the Senate election in Texas. Asked specifically about AR-15s (“I own an AR-15. A lot of our listeners out there own AR-15s. Why should they not have one?”) Beto responded (at the 0:24 mark), “To be clear, they should have them. If you purchased that AR-15, if you own it, keep it. Continue to use it responsibly.” 

As a 2020 Democrat Presidential candidate, though, Beto became best known for his total repudiation of those sentiments. During the primary debate in Houston on September 12, 2019, he famously proclaimed, “Hell yes, we’re going to take your AR-15, your AK47…!” His campaign capitalized on this by selling t-shirts with the catchphrase, and Beto reiterated his call for mandatory confiscation in a CNN interview. Asked “Are you, in fact, in favor of gun confiscation?,” he replied, enthusiastically, “Yes, when it comes to AR-15s and AK-47s…”

    Beto still hasn't made his mind up if he is a man, a woman or just a limp dick.

    I read the NRA article. Its a bunch of mealy mouthed BS. The article reads like apologetics for the faux beaner. NRA actually gives the benefit of the doubt to that bullshit artist.

    That's a great idea taking someone's AR15 and AK47 Beto can practice in Ukraine to make sure
    that's what he wants to do.

    He's a class A shape shifter even by politician standards.

    Why would I vote for a politician who doesn't know his own mind?
