Democrat Rep. Jimmy Gomez (CA) had a meltdown online this week over Republican Congressmen sporting \u201cassault weapon pins\u201d in Congress. The pins, shaped liked a semi-automatic rifle, were worn by at least three Republicans either on the House floor or in committee meetings according to photographs: Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (FL), Rep. George Santos (NY) and Rep. Andrew Clyde (GA). Luna\u2019s response (at end of article) was perfect.<\/p>\n\n
Gomez said, \u201cWhere are these assault weapon pins coming from? Who is passing these out?\u201d<\/p>\n
