Unsecured AR-15 Stolen from Pro-Gun Congresswoman's Home

[onehandle]

According to her website, U.S. Rep. Renee Ellmers (R-NC) "Believes that gun owners must be responsible for the use and care of their guns."

"The weapon had been left leaning against a gun locker in an unlocked garage on Kingsway Drive, the report said.

The rifle, a gun case and a GPS, with a cumulative value of $1,100, were reported stolen, according to Chief J.D. Pope. Police think the theft happened on the night of Oct. 15.

“According to the report, they had been out target shooting and brought the gun back and leaned it against the gun safe,” Pope said. “ … The garage door was left unsecured, according to the report.”'

5. Heck, who hasn't lost their keys or wallet now and then?

No biggie. It'll turn up

















at a crime scene, sooner or later.

6. How is this possible? According to the Pro Gun folks...

gun owners are the most responsible people in the world. There is no need to regulate people with guns because they regulate themselves!

8. They're so responsible, that in Texas they have more voting rights than non-gun owners, women, ...

...and minorities.

Hmm. What 'responsible group' does that leave?

7. I'll bet her gun is safe and sound

I've heard a few tbaggers say they will claim their AR-15s were stolen to avoid the coming "confiscation"

I call bullshit
