Idaho's Lt Gov. Janice McGeachin was filmed in her truck, holding a gun and bible as part of a video to protest COVID restrictions despite a rapid rise of cases in the state.

Janice McGeachin joined several state officials to promote a"declaration" against coronavirus measures that was published on the Idaho Freedom Foundation website on October 1.

During McGeachin's segment, she can be seen sitting in her truck smiling and holding a bible, before she takes out a handgun and places it on the book. McGeachin has been a vocal critic of GOP Gov. Brad Little's COVID orders, attending several rallies to protest against the restrictions during the pandemic, according to The Idaho Statesman.

It comes as Idaho has seen record-breaking numbers of new daily cases in October, bringing the total to 62,746, according to state government figures.

Is brandishing a weapon not illegal. What kind of people are Americans these days?

What a horrible woman, may karma find her and her children.

Not good

The Age of Trump, the stupidity demonstrated by so called leaders knows no bounds.

One of many idiots

Absolute nut bag.

But she is not wearing any face mask or face shield. So what is the gun for?

Can't the cult see sacrilege?

Dumb as a rock

Remember when the GOP had statesmen ? We now have a GOP Theatrical Society that gives an internet soap box to any Buffoon who seeks fifteen minutes of fame.

Well, you can't shoot a virus.

Hee Haw!!

I don’t know this country in which I live.

Idiot alert

Not very bright, is she?

Stupidity is thy name.

And apparently she doesn't seem to see anything wrong with that.

Who falls for this crap? Apparently quite a few.

How cliché

Disgusting how these people have used the Bible as a political prop. Any responsible Christian should be ashamed of these actions.

Muricans and their 'GUNS'...LOL

she believes it's our god given right to have guns

Ya some just don't get it Bible and Gun that was Jesus' vision in sure. Some just don't get it to live your neighbor is to protect them by wearing a mask.

Then Jesus says to him”Return your sword into its place, for all those having taken the sword , will perish by the sword. Matthew 26:32 In case you can’t see the connection - goes for your guns as well...

This is exactly why the author of that Bible has rejected America

Lunatic Lt. governor

Nuttier than the governor and that is saying a lot.

Its just what ISIS would do, only with a koran. Guns & religion. Of course thou shalt not kill😉

Live by the gun you will most definitely die by the gun. That’s certain

Wwjd

yallaban

STUPID

Hard to believe these people invented the internet

Psyco

Ridiculous.

when her time comes...I wonder what Our Lord would think of her equal her guns to the Bible?

Don't know where to start with this one.

Absolutely nothing this party does surprises me anymore. These are the same but jobs we are going to have to watch after donald is defeated.

Nothing says Jesus more than waving a gun. Sheesh! that was sarcasm btw.

tuser5555 😬

Such is the craziness of some in the US! China, the innocent country targeted by the West left right centre, get ready to fight bec these crazy aliens are secretly targeting a war against you bec these bastards can’t resolve own stupid differences and self inferiority complex.

A Bible is the opposite of a gun.

The devil

Sounds like a strong leader...

Any person who a gun in one hand, and the Bible in the other doesn't understand the way of a true God loving person.

Corinthians11:13-15 'For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. So it is no surprise if his servants, also, disguise themselves as servants of righteousness'

Moron. Neither can defend you against a virus. sheep

Ignorance and fanatism met 😖😖

Funny but not funny...the taliban and alqida do the same shit...ffs

This is exactly why America failed to get the virus under control🤦🏻

Carrying two instruments used to impose your will upon others, and shouting 'freedom'. That's the Dunning-Kruger Effect in a nutshell, folks. Game, set and match, no need for further information.

That's the kind of shit Muslim extremists do, the only difference, they also cover their hair!

Nobody can actually drive while holding both a gun and a bible. So this is nothing more than a stunt. She's appealing to the lowest common denominator of her own constituency. And it may work, but it's cynical and manipulative. She's not giving her own voters enough credit.

Why doesn't this surprise me? A bible and a Gun, not as effective as WearAMask would be. But hey, this is why our country is in the dire situation it is. CovidIdiot

She gonna shoot the bible?

Cool

blurtnobrain Why? Does she really believe that God always wanted the Bible to be associated with guns! What a moron!

That's crazy! But one way to look at it. I guess. 🙈🙉🙊🤷‍♀️

Love thy neighbor!

These People Are Sick And Totally Unfit For Public Office!

This is pretty dumb 🤷‍♂️

Maybe she prays that she can hit the target before it shoots back.

Key word: CASES. They are not sick.

Same difference.

JesusWept

More terrorist threats from a neo-Nazi

Yeah!!! Show SARSCoV2 your gun and Bible, that’s sure to scare it 😂 What a dumbarse!!!

Even the NYT has concluded that PCR cases are 90% FALSE POSITIVES. And most of the remaining 10% never become seiously ill. Stop using gaslighting and fear porn to advance the Dem/Globalist agenda.

Conflating those things with American spirit--and using guns or the Bible as your authority dealing with a deadly virus--explain SO very much about why this country is failing.

A gun and a Bible: Juxtaposition of the incongruous.

Threatening people with guns just like Jesus used to do

Nutty folks!

Hero!

I'm sure Jesus would be so proud of her holding a weapon that kills along with a bible that teaches the sanctity of life

Neither will protect you from the virus.

I guess she can shoot the virus and scare it with bible.

fucking clown 🤡

This picture is so meme-worthy.

In case there was any doubt if Republicans really are just parodies of themselves.

'The purpose of GOD'S Long-suffering is to bring Salvation to humanity. The Long-Suffering of GOD is too precious and it should not be ABUSED because it will run out eventually. ExpressFridayVigil
