Dumb shit like this encourages dumb people to actually fire at an object that is tens of thousands of feet out of range, and those rounds come down, and sometimes they kill innocent Americans, which seems like the kind of thing a United States Senator might want to discourage. twitter.com/jdvance1/statu

MI Rep. Alex Garza was the only Dem incumbent to lose a legislative race, last year, mostly on account of having been drawn into a convoluted district. He went from a Downriever Biden+17 district, to a Trump+7.6 district, which now stretches down to the city of Monroe.
