From the debate last night:

“Hell yes, we’re going to take your AR-15, your AK-47,” the former Texas congressman shouted to cheers from the audience. “We’re not going to allow it to be used against our fellow Americans anymore.”

He has become the gun control candidate.

Supposedly it has reinvigorated his campaign.

Texas Representative has been reported to the FBI for tweeting back to Beto, “my AR is ready for you”

Why FBI? Is Beto getting SS protection now.

Did Beto report him to the FBI? What federal crime would that be?

I don't see the representative's comment as a crime. I see it as Texas tradition.

Great response from Cain:
Cain replied: “You’re a child Robert Francis.”

Beto is calling the FBI.

Maybe this is bullying.

Robert Frances needs to know in no uncertain terms that citizens are not going to just surrender their 2A rights. Lord knows we've already surrendered too many of them.

On Twitter (from which I was suspended today for a whole week), a bunch of antigun attorneys are trying to get Cain disbarred and doxxed.

More Robert Francis from last night's debate:
The first is just how dangerous Donald Trump is - the cost and the consequence of his presidency. A racism and violence that had long been a part of America was welcomed out into the open and directed to my hometown of El Paso, Texas, where 22 people were killed, dozens more grievously injured by a man carrying a weapon who should never have been able to buy in the first place - inspired to kill by our president.
This man is an embarrassment to the good people of Texas.
