January 1, “Vote This Motherf—er Out”: Ted Cruz Sparks Outrage

Published

on

ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY…
1787: The U.S. Constitution is signed by delegates at the Philadelphia Convention.

The parents of a child killed during the mass shooting at Robb Elementary School met with Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) this week, urging him to support new gun control measures.

Felix and Kimberly Rubio’s daughter, Alexandria “Lexi” Rubio, 18 other children, and two teachers lost their lives in the May 24 mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas. Cruz declined to support new gun reform measures, saying he’s in favor of increasing police presence on school campuses.

Kimberly Rubio shared a photo of the meeting on Twitter, writing: “Felix shared our last photo of Lexi — in her child-size casket — as we asked [Ted Cruz] to protect his constituents by supporting a federal ban on assault weapons. He declined. Instead, he said he supports increasing law enforcement presence on school campuses.”

Many people expressed outrage at what they interpreted as a nonchalant reaction from the senator, including several other parents of children killed in mass shootings.

“So sorry you had to have this experience with him,” tweeted Fred Guttenberg, whose 14-year-old daughter Jamie was killed in the 2018 shooting at a high school in Parkland, Florida. “Unfortunately, I have had my experience with Ted as well. He is a fraud, and I look forward to working with you to fire him.”

Brett Cross, who lost his 10-year-old son Uziyah Garcia in the Uvalde shooting, also responded. “It’s time to vote this motherf—er out as well. Heartless piece of sh—t! His solution? More cops? 376 waiting 77 minutes wasn’t enough? F—k you!”

One user noted Cruz’s body language, saying, “That man couldn’t care less.”

A spokesperson for Cruz confirmed his meeting with the Rubios and reiterated the senator’s support for the Securing Our Schools Act of 2022.

“[Senator Cruz] saw firsthand the pain and the grief that the unspeakable violence at Robb Elementary School caused,” the statement said.

“Unfortunately, Senate Democrats blocked [the Securing Our Schools Act of 2022] with no explanation of why they don’t support doubling the number of police officers in schools, hiring 15,000 school-based mental health professionals, and increasing the physical security for children in schools,” the spokesperson added.

keep on going Cruz, we need more guns out there to protect ourselves and others

GladysK.

That statement couldn’t be more idiotic.

How does it help to take my constitutional rights away when criminals can have a gun as soon as they get out of prison? Figure this out before you limit citizens from being able to protect themselves and their families

Anna

When someone breaks into your house and you call the police for help and they aren’t available to come may I suggest you contact a social worker to come to your house and help negotiate with your intruder and ask him to please not rape or kill you. She/he can politely ask your intruder to kindly put down their weapon and leave the premises quietly. Good luck with that!

The Militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the RIGHT of the People to keep and bear arms SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED.

Charles Sherwood

More police in schools is a reasonable answer. I don’t see the issue any differently. He was not being disrespectful, he just has a different idea.

T

Need to keep Ted Cruise in and keep stupid Motherf***kers like you out

Don

Exactly. They’re too ignorant to see what’s happening in lib meccas around the country. The problems aren’t the police nor is it with the 2A. The main problem is lieberals and their idiocy and lousy parenting that’s causing ALL of the problems.

👍👍👍🙏🇺🇸

GladysK.

Don, learn to spell! Then perhaps your comments will be taken seriously.

Pia

Excuse me, you seem to fail to get the meaning of LIEberal as a better definition of a Liberal – Liberals Lie.

Lily

Ya really don’t get it?

Kevan

Spot on Mr. T.

kurt gandenberger

the national socialists need gun control in 2022 just as they did in 1938. yes, they are coming for your guns.

Mike Mills

Why is it so hard to understand the Act that the senator is speaking of.
it would work to protect our schools, unlike a gun ban which will only limit the guns in private citizens hands.
The democrats voted the act down, if you want to be mad ay someone be mad at your democrat politician who voted against your child’s safety.

Tyler

It amazes me how the stupid Democrats thinks that taking guns away will get rid of the problem. A criminal or someone that is wanting to commit a crime will get a gun no matter what it takes. Guns doesn’t kill people, people do. It takes someone pulling the trigger. Keep telling them Ted Cruz. You ain’t going nowhere

Lily

Taking guns sole purpose is to
control the populous. Like everything else Dems are doing from the vaccine hoax, fixing votes, loss of free speech, unlawful search, need I go on?

Robert Page

Anyone who thinks that banning guns is going to make law abiding Americans more safe is delusional. The demorats would not vote for more Police in schools because it would expose how stupid trying to take away from law abiding citizens really is. Not only that, this red herring of an idea would make them speechless when it worked and since they never had a good idea on much of anything this would just add to the list. Obama started this BS and his demented VP is delighted to carry it forward since he never had an intelligent idea of his own. We are in real trouble folks so we better get out and vote and get rid of these communist loving politicians who only want to control us and prevent us from defending ourselves from the lawlessness that they have created.

Don

They ARE the indoctrinated delusional. They can’t see how many shootings are still occurring in the lib meccas that have. There’s bee 60+ years of lousy parenting that’s the biggest problem. Hold the parents responsible first AND get rid of public education system indoctrination.

Patricia H Perdue

What we need is to vote every single, mentally diseased DemonRat out of office and do it this year!! Sen. Ted Cruz understands the Constitution and the rights we have under it, including the right to bear arms to protect ourselves against a tyrannical government. Without the Constitution, we’d have NO rights at all. Republicans are not pure but they’re a whole lot better than the DemonRats who were consumed and are now made up of commies and marxists. Do not be persuaded that you should be left defenseless without arms under any circumstances.

Askdall

Gun Control NO! Demon Control YES!

LMS

These people still don’t get it! I cannot believe the stupidity. It’s sad their child died but you don’t get rid of guns to protect you! How difficult is it to understand that criminals can get guns no matter what IINCLUDING building their own even from a 3d printer!
So you want to take guns away from even from police and decent people to protect themselves from criminals who can and will ALWAYS still be able to get funs no matter whether they were to ban guns? GET IT THROUGH YOUR HEADS LIBERALS, YOU CAN’T BAN GUNS BECAUSE CRIMINALS WILL STILL GET ACCESS TO THEM NO MATTER WHAT! YOU THINK OUR THINKING IS MESSED UP? IT’S YOURS THAT IS FOR NOT COMPREHENDING FACTS!
Our forefathers gave us the rights to protect ourselves, family, and property from criminals! How hard is that to understand?!!!!

Chicago HAS the tightest gun laws in the country and they still can’t control the criminals and all those weapons have been purchased illegally many ways that no regulation will EVER stop it!!!!

Askdall

Ever question that this Shooting/Killing was a Deep State setup, Las Vegas, Parkland, Aurora, so many more.

Why should citizens be armed? …
“The National Firearms Survey was conducted from  February 17 to March 23, 2021. It involved the largest, most comprehensive sample of gun owners in the United States to date. The sample used online polling and started with a survey starting with a representative sample of over fifty-four thousand United states residents.
Defensive firearms uses were common.   31.1% of respondents reported they had used a firearm for defensive purposes. Most of the defensive purposes occurred in their residence or on their property. In 81.9 % of the cases, no shots were fired.
The total number of defensive uses per year  (1.67 million) falls well within the range of previous studies.
Handguns were the firearm most commonly used for defense of self and property  (65.9%). Shotguns were used 21% of the time, and rifles in 13.1% of the incidents.”

Fred

Stay strong for the Constitution Sen. Cruz! All murder is tragic, but only the truly ignorant blame the guns – it’s the criminal that needs to be dealt with, no matter what their weapon of choice is… gun, car, knife, hammer…
A push for gun-control is a push for communism and the loss of freedom. As the Democrats and RINOs have directly ignited the biggest crime wave ever in their endless quest for power (to control every little aspect of your life), every citizen must learn how to be their own first responder. As a former LEO, we are never there in time. Anyone who cares to research can easily find that armed citizens stop potentially violent crimes against themselves MANY THOUSANDS of times more than the crimes committed by criminals with guns. Get armed. Get trained. Get prepared. Be safe.
