Nevada Assemblywoman Michele Fiore (R), who is currently seeking her party’s nomination for an open U.S. House seat, said last week that she believes the right to self defense includes the right to aim your gun anyone who aims a gun at you, even if they are a law enforcement officer.
“I would never ever point my firearm at anyone, including an officer of the law, unless they pointed their firearm at me,” Fiore explained. But, the assemblywoman continued, “once you point your firearm at me, I’m sorry, then it becomes self-defense. Whether you’re a stranger, a bad guy, or an officer, and you point your gun at me and you’re gonna shoot me and I have to decide whether it’s my life or your life, I choose my life.”
You know I don't think this idiot understands how law enforcement works.
Actually believe it or not Fiore was the person who tried to convince Cliven Bundy and his band of inbred misfits to avoid getting into a firefight with the FBI.
However now it appears that she is all done with being rational and is instead channeling her inner Annie Oakley.
Gee another unhinged politician living in Nevada, how completely unsurprising.
Here's to hoping Arpaio points his gun at her.
ReplyDeleteShe is among those who believe "Freedom" equals anarchy.
ReplyDeleteI think she's spent too much time around the Bundy types. They browbeat in the same way as religious types. They are bubble dwellers who spout their nonsense 24/7, and it's easy to get swayed if you spend much time around them.
ReplyDeleteWith all of the aiding and abetting she did during the incident,I'm surprised she hasn't already needed to do that while being arrested.
ReplyDeleteOK, Michele, it's your right, but I don't think you'll like the consequences.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad she feels that way. Hopefully some police officer will do us the favor or eliminating her permanently.
ReplyDeleteEven most of us her on IM don't agree with you.
DeleteThat's ok
DeleteThis chick sounds like she needs to be in the military and in a war zone. I have to wonder just what kind of gun safety training she has had.
ReplyDeleteThis type of say or do anything to get elected has got to stop pronto. And I say to her to keep her butt out of trouble and she won't have to worry about the police coming after you with a gun.
She lives in a fantasy world.
So they’ll ‘take back’ the 28 rounds they fire DIRECTLY AT YOUR HEAD before they transport you to the morgue??
ReplyDeleteIdiotic……

DeleteThis is the person who put out that insane, firearm laden Christmas card (I think) a couple years ago, right? The one where there were babies and toddlers and everyone over the age of seven was holding a gun?
ReplyDeleteIt seems like there's a Darwin Award in her future.
Yes.She is batshit crazy. The only thing she likes better than guns is flaunting her gigantic boobs.
DeleteUh...yeah Fiore. So you won't point your gun at a LEO unless they point one at your first. Let me lay out that scenario for you dear: if you put yourself in a situation where the officer has no option but to pull their weapon, the minute you reach for yours you will be a dead person. You might want to re-think that statement. "remember LaVoy"
ReplyDeleteSheesh
Now here's a politician who really IS under investigation - and she's in the crazy GOP. Hope she is indicted by the DOJ.
ReplyDeleteShe's a bona fide nut case.
ReplyDeleteWhen the Bundy clusterfuck was going on in Oregon,she'd use her position and get info from the Feds and feed it to the Bundyites.I'd say she should be locked up. .She is absolutely crazy and a traitor to boot
ReplyDeleteHow about we begin with "why would law enforcement be pointing a gun at you?"
ReplyDeleteHave the Palins publicly supported this viewpoint yet?
ReplyDeleteFiore is an idiot and a disgrace to the state of Nevada. She's also in a lot of trouble with the IRS.

ReplyDeleteAlong with all of the idiocy of such comment and the obvious apology for the crime of not only disobeying but also threatening to shoot a police office, this idiot might have just raised the number of suicides by cop in a few dozens, since God only knows (and here just for the figure of speech) how many idiots will listen to her statement, and given how good Trump is doing in the polls, we have a good idea of the ammount of idiots we're talking about here.
ReplyDeleteIt worked out well for Tarpman, didn't it?
ReplyDeleteI LOVE a brilliant woman! Here she is, on record saying she'd shoot an officer. Good luck when you're caught walking by a random corpse in uniform./s Even if the ballistics don't match, they'll find a way, then what, Einstein????
ReplyDeleteShe's crazy, what's she doing in office? How about snipers? They make mistakes and can be miles away.
Well, maybe nowadays as police shoot. They are no longer pristine where one can no point a gun at them.
