that's in his office, yes? It doesn't appear her office is in the same building.

And is the gun loaded? I would guess not, but haven't seen that mentioned.

That there is a 2nd Amendment and he is there to defend it!

As is he. It’s good politics.

The reason I had to 'alter' the title!

Dem Congresswoman Calls Sergeant At Arms On Republican Rep Over His Gun Video: “I Feel Unsafe With This In My Place Of Work”

Fear the politician that fears your gun.
(I 'stole' that from ... somewhere from someone.)
In case you haven't figured it out yet: The reason that the headline is so-o-o long is that it's not a truly professional website. A good website, with professional editors, would have cut that down to something more concise.

This website is one I wouldn't trust, as it makes no mention of specific staff and provides no telephone number. Despite its claiming to be factual, most of the pieces appear to be opinion pieces and they mostly fixate on minor stories.

But it's an interesting post, showing us again how often Republican rhetoric is unacceptably violent.

A gun crisis? Please elaborate, what is this gun crisis you speak of?

The gun "crisis" is that liberals are scared of them.

I wish I worked in a place with automatic weapons on the walls-the more the better.
Many of us have a handgun at work. Not really a big deal when you work with normal adults.

Not a bit. In fact, I pass several on the way to the elevator each morning. <Yawn> What's to fear?

There's a word some use to describe offensive women. I abstain from using it, but would make an exception in this particular woman's case if given the opportunity to speak with her.
