The Raw Story shamelessly misrepresents Marjorie Taylor Greene, implying that she advocates threatening door-to-door busybody federal (covid) social workers with firearms (linked: the Alabama Political Reporter).
“We all love our Second Amendment rights and we don’t like the federal government coming on our property to tell us what to do. You have HIPPA rights and you do not have tell your medical information and you can tell them to get off your front porch and get off your front lawn.”
Nowhere in there does she advocate 'exercising' 2A rights against door-to-door busybodies. She inferred that as 2A supporters, we are strong on ALL of our rights, including the right to be left alone.
TRS takes a disingenuous, dangerous leap in its lede. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
