In 2005, Rodriguez made a video of himself calmly loading a gun and preparing other weapons, praising the Republicans for their lax gun laws and explaining to the camera that he was abused as a child, had contemplated suicide ever since, and that his mother must pay for the things she'd done.

Congresswoman Lauren Boebert was filmed wordlessly threw throwing away a pamphlet calling for gun reform and sharing the story of Maite Rodriguez, one of the 19 students fatally shot in the 2022 Uvalde school massacre.

Anti-gun violence activist Sarah Fishkind filmed the interaction in the Capitol on Tuesday.

The Republican representative from Colorado is seen quickly grabbing the pamphlet and then throwing it in the trash, as a bystander is heard off-camera saying, “We hope you take action on gun violence prevention.”

In a separate video, the pamphlet is in a nearby trash can.

Activists, including Parkland survivor David Hogg, condemned the interaction.

“Lauren Boebert just threw away a pamphlet of a mother fighting to honor her child who was gunned down and murdered in her classroom,” he wrote on Twitter. “This is how Congress treats survivors.”

The flier included testimony from Maite’s mother and a green pin, modeled after the green Converse sneakers the student’s family used to help identify her body.

“On that fateful morning, my daughter walked out of our home, not knowing she would never return to her mother,” the pamphlet read. “It was the last week of school and she was excited about watching movies with her friends.”

“Maite, her classmates, and her teachers were killed with an AT-15 style rifle in their classrooms. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH,” it continued. “We must ban assault weapons in this country and protect our children.”

The Independent has contacted Rep. Boebert for comment.

Lives Robbed told The Independent in a statement, “The video of Rep. Boebert throwing out the pin of Maite’s Shoes is disgusting and beyond insulting. We will not be resharing the video.”

Ms. Boebert, who once ran a gun-themed restaurant in Colorado called Shooters Grill, is a staunch opponent of gun control laws.

In June, she was accused of blowing past gun violence survivors hoping to speak with her in Washington.

She has previously compared new gun laws to banning planes after 9/11.

“When 9/11 happened, we didn’t ban planes,” she told Fox News earlier this year. “We secured the cockpit.”

“I want our schools secured, I want their children protected, and I want teachers that can protect themselves and their students,” she added. “And you know what? We can achieve this without trying to disarm law-abiding citizens.”

She has previously mocked Mr. Hogg online, telling him to “give it a rest” when he criticised her record on safety issues.

[genspiel]

honestly i kinda really like the way Control keeps like, imagining conversations in his head and scripting them out, and then when he goes and actually talks to those people, they do and say things he didn't expect. happens to me all the time lmao

#tre reads #the southern reach trilogy #authority #jeff vandermeer #john control rodriguez #it's a very realistic thing that i'm not sure i've seen happen in a book before ahaha (or at least not to this extent perhaps)

"I would love to revisit the Desperado series. I thought it was way ahead of its time," the director said, going on to point out how real-life tragedies have stalled a potential fourth film. "It’s really hard to do today, for me, anything with guns. Gun violence has gotten out of control. Even those are those are very tongue-in-cheek and kind of fun. It’s just hard to do. There’s always some terrible shooting and you just go, I don’t know if I can responsibly do anything with guns."

Last time I checked, gun violence has been going down pretty consistently since 2003, when the last movie was made. But the media and other political interests make a bigger fuss out of mass shootings, which makes them appear like a much bigger problem.

If you remember 2003 and the 90s, one common argument around the time was the terrible supposed effects of media violence. Ironically, it was mostly the right making the argument at the time (I’ve read) and now it’s the left.

I have, against all good judgment, started playing Control. I did make it through the first challenge without dying (after I got past the first proper jump) which bodes better than expected, given my video game track record, but we'll see how it goes.

Anyway, I need to make a version of the Socrates meme but with Jesse getting hired as director immediately upon the culmination of some decades-long revenge quest.

#'hired' sure is a word to use for it but like. what else would you call it. #also the Authority southern reach vibes are so strong and not just cuz of the name #you have semi unwittingly become director of a shady semi-extradimensional secret federal bureau. #everything is hostile to you except for one feral old man and honestly he'll probably try to get you killed at some point to. #another feral old man is speaking to you seemingly directly into your brain and he is DEFINITELY going to end up getting you killed. #good luck! #where is my crossover fic of john rodriguez and jesse control playing the most exhausted game of dive bar pool and getting hammered. #I know I'm like. minutes into this game but it's what they both deserve. #(ghost bird can come too cuz it's funny as fuck and she would cheat so badly and both of them would be too tired to notice) #anyway tags with a target audience of me and me only probably

!! major Authority spoilers below !!

Control had been standing there with his back to the shelves for only about a minute. He had been standing there recognizing that there was a draft in the loft. He had been standing there without realizing that it wasn't a draft. Someone was breathing, behind him. Someone was breathing on his neck. The knowledge froze him, froze the cry of "Jesus fuck!" in his throat. He turned with incredible slowness, wishing he could seem like a statue in his turning. Then saw with alarm a large, pale, watery-blue eye that existed against a backdrop of darkness or dark rags shot through with pale flesh, and which resolved into Whitby. Whitby, who had been there the entire time, crammed into the shelf right behind Control, at eye level, bent at the knees, on his side. Breathing in shallow sharp bursts. Staring out. Like something incubating. There, on the shelf.
