In a a primary in Arizona, one candidate has invoked Trayvon Martin in describing another candidate’s support for stand your ground:
An Arizona candidate for Congress has sent out a mailer displaying the image of Trayvon Martin to attack her opponent’s record as a state lawmaker.
Mary Rose Wilcox used the mailer to slam her opponent, Ruben Gallego, in the Democratic primary for Arizona’s 7th Congressional District in Phoenix, according to The Arizona Republic, which posted a copy of it.
“America doesn’t need more Trayvon Martin tragedies,” the mailer reads, underneath a portrait of Martin in a hoodie. On the next page it lists Gallego’s support for “Stand Your Ground” legislation and what it describes as his B+ record from the National Rifle Association.
More of this, please.
If we ever want to push against against the NRA and other ammosexuals, we must extract a political price on people who find capitulating to 2nd amendment extremist, and the best place to do this is in the primaries.
It is is a good thing for supporting the NRA is turned into a liability at the primary level.
It’s the first step to standing up to the ammosexuals.
To quote former Reagan staffer James Baker, “F%$# ’em, the won’t vote for us anyway.”
