Tell us you have no idea what an assault rifle is without telling us you have no idea what an assault rifle is.
As Twitchy readers know, Rep. Lucy McBath testified the exit wounds from assault rifles can be a FOOT WIDE and that the victim’s skull explodes on impact. Yeah, we made the same face. Thinking someone has watched waaaaaay too many movies. Oh, and she claims that’s the reason we don’t see victims after a mass shooting because there is nothing really left of them.
Sort of like this?
And she said this with a straight face.
Mockery of her comments was off the charts all across Twitter, but Ian McKelvey made a literal piece of social media ART with his thread … take a look:
The destructive power of an AR-15 when fired from the air, at a ground-based target. These weapons of war have no place in a civilized society. https://t.co/yF9QW89Emx pic.twitter.com/GAeuAQa2LT

People aren’t even safe in their own homes. This woman was doing her nightly exercises when a drive by shooting suddenly occurred. A stray bullet, fired from an AR-15, entered her home. pic.twitter.com/LKtvdUqGbX

That poor pole.
This woman was enjoying a nice bike ride in a city park when her front wheel was struck by a projectile fired from a powerful weapon of war. An AR-15. The carnage that ensued is difficult to watch. @RepLucyMcBath pic.twitter.com/BabmwdAzrY

Unimaginable destruction which our founding fathers could not have foreseen. Ban all nuclear AR-15’s.
