CLAREMORE ~ Someone who disagreed with U.S. Rep. Markwayne Mullin on gun control threatened to shoot Mullin and his three children at their school, the first-term Republican said Tuesday during a town hall meeting at Northeast Technology Center.Mullin’s chief of staff, Karl Ahlgren, said Jan. 19 that death threats had been made against Mullin and his family, but no details were revealed.
“Some lunatic … didn’t like my stance on guns, and his solution was to threaten to shoot me,” Mullin said. “How ironic is that?”
His children were taken in through the back door of their school under the protection of federal and local law enforcement officers “because the threat was directed toward that,” he said.
The situation, which occurred while Mullin was in Washington, caused him to have a “pity party” and question his decision to seek office, Mullin said Tuesday.
“I was praying a little bit, but I was doing more griping,” he said.
If we want guns that is wrong and we should be shot for that desire. However if the liberals, those that know all things, disagree we should be shot and they will kill us prove they are open minded. Lunacy!~
Dick Grace: please try to rewrite your comment so that it uses proper English grammar rules and you don’t make conservatives look like what liberals think conservatives look like.
Hang in there, congressman Mullin! There are always some weirdos out there. An old air force saying holds that you know you are over the target when you start drawing heavy flak.
