INSANE Democrat Rep. David Cicilline, “Spare Me the Bull***t About Constitutional Rights” on Gun Control Debate (WATCH)

Democrats made it crystal clear how they feel about the U.S. Constitution and constitutional rights of American citizens.

They spit in the face of constitutional rights and wish to trample over the U.S. Constitution.

Rep. David Cicilline (D-RI) on Thursday expressed his disdain for Americans and their constitutional rights, which he swore an oath to uphold.

Spare me the bullshit about constitutional rights,” Cicilline said.

Cicilline was addressing Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) during a fiery House Judiciary Committee meeting on a gun control bill that eventually passed the committee on a party-line vote Thursday evening, 25-19.

Here’s a longer clip with context:

The outburst “came while Cicilline had the floor during a discussion of a potential bill. Under consideration was so-called “red flag” laws, The Wrap reported.

Gaetz said, “Congress disfavors the enactment of laws that authorize a court to issue an extreme risk protection order, also known as Red Flag laws, in the States because such laws trample on an individual’s due process and Second Amendment rights.”

Cicilline responded to Gaetz: “…imminent danger to themselves and others, such as they might commit mass murder, have a constitutional right to access a firearm. And to deny them that right would, quote, ‘trample on an individual’s due process and second amendment rights.’ You know who didn’t have due process? You know who didn’t have their constitutional right to life respected? The kids at Parkland, and Sandy Hook, and Uvalde and Buffalo, and the list goes on and on. So spare me the bulls— about constitutional rights.”

Gaetz had this message for Republican senators considering red flag laws:

“If you back red flag laws, you betray your voters, you are a traitor to the Constitution, you do nothing to make mass shootings less likely, and you put a target on the back of your constituents.”

The Gateway Pundit noted:

Last year Gaetz joined over 130 GOP Congressmen in voting for the NDAA Defense spending bill that included a red flag law for servicemembers.

Gaetz represents a district that has strong military support in Pensacola, Florida, making it hard to vote against Defense spending bills. At least Gaetz is fighting against red flag laws for civilians.
