A Texas Republican lawmaker has been reported to the FBI for a tweet in which he appeared to threaten presidential contender Beto O'Rourke after he had made an impassioned plea for tougher gun restrictions.
and injured by a man carrying a weapon"he should never been able to buy in the first place," and who had"been inspired to kill by our president." Former Texas congressman Beto O'Rourke during the Democratic Presidential Debate at Texas Southern University's Health and PE Center on September 12, 2019 in Houston. Texas Rep. Briscoe Cain has been reported to police for a death threat against the congressman."In Odessa, I met the mother of a 15-year-old girl who was shot by an AR-15 and that mother watched her bleed to death over the course of an hour because so many other people were shot by that AR-15...
Cain tweeted"My AR is ready for you Robert Francis," using the former El Paso congressman's legal name.
These Republicans feel they can say and do whatever they want to. If the shoe was on the other foot Briscoe Cain would have have been crying like a you know what. Trump fits well in the Republican party because it's full of a bunch of liars, con artist, and hypocrites. Disgusting
Has this Asshole forgoten what ' Molon Labre ' means, Oh well than........ theres over 1 million gun owners who has made death threats.
LIVE SHOT FROM FBI HEADQUARTERS:
Outrageous
Really disappointed tribfest19 evanasmith hasn’t revoked BriscoeCain invite. Political difference is one thing. This kind of violent rhetoric, especially in light of recent shootings, should not be tolerated.
Good.
That's good. But, have you seen Briscoe Cain (I can't help but snicker ... I expected a 'manly' villain)? Briscoe would ride a horse backwards.
What *ussy Francis is
Beto prices how weak and whiny he is. He is the white obama.
Ridiculous
No way,Beto O’Rourke is not his name, it’s Robert Francis O’Rourke, now the law may have something.
Our mission at is to build the social media platform that ends fake news
He should be.
Anyone report Beto to the FBI for threatening millions of gun owners with lethal force to steal their property? That sounds like a larger crime.
Briscoe will face justice one way or the other. He should lose his legal license over this at the very least.
🙄 how embarrassing to the fascist who reported it
Banning AR can get whole families killed by home invaders but Beto doesn't have to worry about that BetoORourke NRA GOP RepublicanParty GunControlNow Thuglife Jews nazism ChicagoPD
Hold BriscoeCain accountable!!! BriscoeCainResign
This is going to be amusing
Let’s hope he meant “Augmented Reality” & no harm to any1.
Robert Francis O’Rourke is a criminal and should not be advising anyone about firearms.
How is “My AR is ready for you” more violent than, “I’m going to force the police to go into your home and steal your property at gunpoint”?
The FBI will do absolutely nothing. This should, however, be his last day on Twitter.
Bris Cocaine was smuggled into the US in someone’s ass
Philosophical thought: See difficult it is to confiscate weapons when we have weapons? Welcome to the Second Amendment! Beto never thought this through?
Spoiler Alert: That's pretty much what the 2nd Amendment is all about
BriscoeCain may have ruined his career, but he also could have earned himself a smash with TomiLahren and/or DLoesch
I'm glad, cause I was shocked beyond belief. He should lose everything.
In case you'd like to contact BriscoeCain or his boss Speaker RepDennisBonnen about briscoecain threats to BetoORourke Cain 512-463-0733 Bonnen 512-463-1000 Hey, Briscoe, good luck with FBI and statebaroftexas 512-427-1463
lakesideliberal Why are gun owners such hostile, combative individuals? Nobody is trying to take away your precious guns. Although it’s not a bad idea because it would save lives.
There are dozens of threats to Trump & other Republicans & conservatives that are far more explicit that don’t even rate a temp ban by Twitter much less FBI
Good.
KateRic46365754 gop party of domestic terrorists
He should be because that's definitely a red flag! Man has no reason to own any guns when he's threatening someone. BriscoeCain
🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
Awesome this Cain guy clearly is sick in the head
BriscoeCain
Yikes!
This looks like a true threat to me. Wonder what excuse the DOJ will use for not bringing this case?
Good. Cain is unfit for office.
He deleted the Tweet. I bet he actually thinks that made it 'disappear.' ArrestBriscoeCain
Saintsfan5348 Stochastic terrorism. It's disgusting.
If RepCummings had said something like that he'd already been in jail right now.
Beta threatens to forcefully strip the 2A rights from citizens and then cries when citizens threaten to resist.
Good finally something is being done.
