Eric Swalwell’s New Take on Why Gun Owners ‘Hate’ Him Is Pathetic
Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) made a name for himself after making comments about how he wanted to nuke gun owners that defended their right to keep and bear arms. Gun rights advocates have kept their eye on his gun control comments, especially as he attempts to woo voters during the 2020 presidential campaign.
Swalwell took to Twitter on Monday to, once again, voice his disdain for gun owners and, naturally, the National Rifle Association of America. . .
They (the NRA) hate me because they know I’m not the bogeyman they want … I feel comfortable shooting guns. I do shoot guns. I think that they want the person who is proposing tougher gun laws to be someone who’s never handled a gun before.https://t.co/EdLpxAVt6V

NRA Spokeswoman Dana Loesch told, pretty bluntly, that no one hates him. They’re simply uninterested in what he has to say.
Even though you threatened to nuke and jail people if they didn’t turn over their guns, no one hates you. They’re just uninterested. https://t.co/EyPj4W2z0O

1) The boogeyman is a lot scarier than you and your comb over.
2) We don't hate you.
3) Since you've shot guns does that mean you're going to nuke yourself? Or is the nuking only for those who are evil enough to OWN firearms? https://t.co/EkEVhPSljv— Beth Baumann (@eb454) May 6, 2019
The question for Swalwell: if you’re someone who shoots guns, does that mean your proposal includes nuking yourself? Or is that only for those who actually OWN a firearm, not just merely someone who shoots a gun? (Read more from “Eric Swalwell’s New Take on Why Gun Owners ‘Hate’ Him Is Pathetic” HERE)
