共和党众议员布里斯科·凯恩在告诉贝托·欧洛克“我的AR已经为你准备好了”

       据报道，一名德克萨斯州共和党议员向联邦调查局发送了一条推文，其中他似乎威胁总统候选人贝托奥罗克，因为他对激烈的枪支限制提出了慷慨激昂的请求。

       众议员布里斯科凯恩正在对奥罗克的声明作出反应，他将推动禁止拥有德克萨斯州大规模枪击中使用的某些军用步枪，包括在他的家乡埃尔帕索，这使得22人死亡，敖德萨和米德兰，造成八人死亡。

       在周四晚上在休斯敦举行的民主党辩论期间，奥罗克说，埃尔帕索的受害者被一名携带武器的男子杀死并受伤，“他本来就买不到，” “被我们的总统激怒了。”

       当主持人后来对他对武器的立场施压时，奥罗克表示他会支持拿走一枚“旨在在战场上杀人”的武器。

       “在敖德萨，我遇到了一名15岁女孩的母亲，她被AR-15枪杀，母亲看着她在一小时内流血致死，因为其他许多人被AR-15枪杀了......没有足够的救护车及时赶到他们身边。“

       “天哪，我们将拿走你的AR-15，你的AK-47，我们不会再允许他们对抗美国同胞了，”他对观众的欢呼说。

       该隐使用前埃尔帕索国会议员的合法名称发推文“我的AR为你准备好罗伯特弗朗西斯”。

       奥罗克在推特上回应说，该隐的推文是一种“死亡威胁”，并补充说“很明显，你不应该拥有一架AR-15，其他人也不应该。”

       据达拉斯晨报报道，该公司的一条推文在一份声明中表示违反了“你可能不会威胁对个人或一群人的暴力行为” 的规定。美国有线电视新闻网记者莱拉·圣地亚哥在推文中表示，奥罗克的竞选活动告诉她，凯恩的言论将向联邦调查局报告。

       来自德克萨斯州哈里斯县的34岁的该隐是128区的州代表。他的竞选网站将他描述为“经过深思熟虑的道德信仰的保守派领袖，随时准备捍卫德克萨斯州和我们的价值观不受进步人士的不断攻击反对我们的信仰，家庭和自由。“

       在他的威胁之后，该隐在Twitter上遭到了相当多的批评。民主党代表Erin Zwiener在推特上写道：“这种语言很危险。我们作为德克萨斯州当选者，必须做得更好。这样的语言会导致死亡。”

       代表玛丽·冈萨雷斯（Mary Gonzalez）在推文中说：“你正在使用的语言以及你使用它的方式是危险的。”

       但该隐似乎是不悔改的，发推文“来接受它”，明显提到枪支权利活动家之间的流行口号，大胆的政客们没收他们的武器。

       他补充说：“我在reg中得到了比例”，这意味着他的推文引发了大量不满的评论。

       辩论结束后，奥罗克告诉记者，他预计限制武器的过程将是第一次“不被全国步枪协会统治”的过程。

       他说，它将“包括要求行动的妈妈的声音，为我们的生命而行进的学生，以及生病和厌倦了正在发生的事情的日常美国人。”

GOP REP. BRISCOE CAIN TO BE REPORTED TO FBI AFTER TELLING BETO O'ROURKE 'MY AR IS READY FOR YOU'


       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.

       Rep. Briscoe Cain was reacting to O'Rourke's statement that he would push for a ban on the possession of certain military-style rifles used in mass shootings in Texas, including in his home town of El Paso, which left 22 people dead, and Odessa and Midland, which killed eight.

       In his opening remarks during the Democrat debate on Thursday night in Houston, O'Rourke said that the El Paso victims were killed 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."

       When later pressed by the moderator about his stance on weapons, O'Rourke said he would support the taking away of a weapon that "was designed to kill on the battlefield."

       "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...there weren't enough ambulances to get to them in time."

       "Hell yes, we are going to take your AR-15s, your AK-47s, we are not going to allow them to be used against fellow Americans any more," he said to cheers from the audience.

       Cain tweeted "My AR is ready for you Robert Francis," using the former El Paso congressman's legal name.

       O'Rourke responded on Twitter that Cain's tweet was a "death threat," adding that "clearly, you shouldn't own an AR-15—and neither should anyone else."

       Cain's tweet was removed by Twitter, which said in a statement that it violated its rule that "you may not threaten violence against an individual or a group of people," the Dallas Morning Newsreported. CNN correspondent Leyla Santiago tweeted that the O'Rourke campaign had informed her that Cain's remark would be reported to the FBI.

       Hailing from Harris County, Texas, 34-year-old Cain is the state representative for District 128. His campaign website describes him as a "proven conservative leader with strong moral convictions always ready to defend Texas and our values from the constant onslaught by progressives against our faith, family, and freedoms."

       After his threat, Cain faced considerable criticism on Twitter. Democratic representative Erin Zwiener tweeted: "This language is dangerous. We, as Texas electeds, have to be better. Language like this contributes to deaths."

       Representative Mary Gonzalez tweeted, "The language you are using and the way you are using it is dangerous."

       But Cain appeared to be unrepentant, tweeting "come and take it," an apparent reference to a popular slogan among gun rights activists, daring politicians to confiscate their weapons.

       He added: "I get ratioed in the reg", meaning his tweets spark a large number of disapproving comments.

       After the debate, O'Rourke told reporters that he expected that the process of restricting weapons would be a process that would for the first time "not be dominated by the NRA."

       He said it would "include the voices of Moms Who Demand Action, the students who are marching for our lives, and everyday Americans who are sick and tired of what's happening."
