GOP Sen. Rand Paul’s 'Super Weird' Gun Wall Stunt Gets Shot Down On Twitter
- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
Sen. Rand Paul’s (R-Ky.) latest attempt at bashing President Joe Biden backfired when a photo of himself staring pensively at a wall of guns was transformed into a meme.
Paul on Wednesday shared this picture of himself on Twitter, writing: “Just looking at all the guns @joebiden is going to try to ban…”

Critics accused Paul of fearmongering over Biden’s bid to ban assault-style weapons, saying few of the weapons on display would actually be prohibited.
Parkland school shooting survivor David Hogg slammed Paul’s message, tweeting: “God forbid someone like the 19 year old who shot 34 of my classmates and administrators killing 17 not be able to get an AR-15.”
Comedians Michael Ian Black and Samantha Bee also chimed in:

Do these idiots ever get tired of lying about culture war bullshit? Moderate gun regulations that will still leave hundreds of millions of guns in America is hardly a "ban" and of course Rand Paul knows that. https://t.co/ep00unGWWt
