A conservative county supervisor in central Virginia is drawing criticism for a tweet about gunning down pro-marijuana demonstrators who stormed the Capitol Hill office of Rep. Andy Harris (R-Md.).
Manuel Alvarez Jr., a Republican supervisor in rural Goochland County, saw a post on his Twitter feed about protesters trying to force their way into Harris’s office on Tuesday and tweeted his reply to his 636 followers.
“With one reload, I can take 34 of them. But my guess is one will be sufficient,” Alvarez wrote.
After logging back onto Twitter later Tuesday, Alvarez noticed the negative reaction to the post and deleted it.
“It was a joke; nothing more than that,” Alvarez said Wednesday, calling the post “stupid” during a telephone interview. “Everybody here knows me, knows who I am, and that I’m not that way. I shouldn’t have done it.”

"Marijuana makes you violent."

But only because you so violently oppose it, you sick, demented cunt.

Everyone who says "I'm not that way" is exactly that way.

Violence between the left snd the right is inevitable.

The whole reefer madness thing was terrifying, showing how propaganda can warp an entire generation and beyond

It's okay, people can waste this guy without needing to reload.

Luckily one side inherently stunts itself thanks to its own discriminatory roots.

How do right wing people ever expect to win any conflict if they arbitrarily decide to shit on virtually anyone who isn't straight and white. It's mind boggling how flawed their ideologies are.

Uh, this guy shouldn't be allowed to own a gun.

Is it a coincidence, sheer luck and chance, that it was a republican? Or is there perhaps some sort of problem with the morals of the right/repubs?

Oppression works when its subtle. Little things that keep people worn down. When you make big, fuckheaded moves like this they become fully aware of the oppression and want to fight back against it as they should. So go ahead and see how fast a bigger crowd forms and tears you limb from limb, you shitsucking fucktard.
