Lauren Boebert shared a picture of her children holding guns. The photo was taken days after a similar picture from Republican congressman Thomas Massie. That picture had been met with widespread outrage.
Both the images have been shared in the wake of the Oxford High School shooting in Michigan. This has claimed four lives and injured eight others.
Boebert shared an image that said, “The Boeberts like Rep. Thomas Massie.”
The Boeberts have your six, @RepThomasMassie!

The joke is about ammunition. It is in response to Massie’s tweet asking Santa to bring ammo.
Massie’s picture was retweeted by Boebert, and he said: “That’s my kind of Christmas card!”

After posting the photo, Boebert has also gotten some bad reactions. Some people think it is not right. Piers Morgan thinks it is “sickening.”
My God…. it’s been just a week since America suffered yet another horrific school shooting and a second politician posts a photo of her young family parading semi-automatic weapons in front of a Christmas tree.
This is sickening. 🤬 https://t.co/NxNYLEyafI— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) December 8, 2021

She has four kids holding guns in this pic. That’s exactly the same number of kids gunned down and murdered by another kid with a gun just days ago. This party is a death cult, part 335. https://t.co/EZ9APhaGvD

This is not normal. Nor should it ever be treated as such. https://t.co/q3Lp3IFpOb

MeidasTouch said they wouldn’t share the photo of Boebert’s children with weapons.
Ok so I don’t want to take the bait on the fact that there is no circumstance where children should be carrying guns but I have to weigh in on the MAJOR gaffe in this photo…
She purchased her child a Raiders sweatshirt? In Colorado? https://t.co/h5or9FiTCP

Instead, they shared a picture of the 4 people that were killed when there was a shooting in Oxford. The 4 people who died in the shooting were Tate Myre, 16; Hana St Juliana, 14; Madisyn Baldwin, 17 and Justin Shilling, 17.
We will not be posting the deranged photo of Lauren Boebert and her young children holding weapons of war.
Instead, let’s honor the teens who were murdered due to this fetishization of guns:
