The biased liberal media just can’t help themselves. ABC’s This Week recently invited Justin Pearson, one of the ousted former Democrat Tennessee representatives, to come on and play the victim because he was held accountable for his actions.
The co-moderator Jon Karl shamelessly lied on Easter Sunday, claiming the “two young black lawmakers [were] expelled from the state house of representatives after they took a stand on gun violence.”
Yeah, right. It’s like saying January 6 was “a stand for Trump’s victory”. What a crock! It’s totally out of bounds to claim shooting up a Christian school is a stand against gun violence.
Introducing the disgraced former representative, Karl asked the leading question: “You have spoken with great passion on the issue of gun violence. And I was wondering if you can tell us. I know you lost a classmate of yours to gun violence shortly before you were sworn in as a representative, what can you tell us about how that motivates you?”
This gave Pearson a chance to tell his sob story about experiencing so-called “gun violence” and how “over two thousand cars have gotten broken into” in his city. Seriously? That’s another reason why more Americans should be allowed to own firearms.
Karl then asked if Pearson could be reinstated as early as next week. Pearson announced his intention to “continue to serve District 86” and if there “is a special election I would definitely run in that special election.”
But let’s not forget why Pearson was expelled in the first place. The truth is, he and the other Democrats were expelled from the state House of Representatives because they broke the rules and ignored all warnings. Pearson was also trying to push through radical gun reform which is completely against the GOP’s pro-rights policies.
So let’s cut the crap and get down to the facts. Pearson and his fellow Democrats were expelled because they were trying to push through radical gun reform, which is completely against the GOP’s pro-rights policies. They were also breaking the state’s House rules and ignoring all warnings.
It’s time to put an end to this biased liberal media narrative and stop giving Pearson a platform to spew his nonsense. He and his cronies were kicked out for good reason and it’s about time the rest of the country stops giving him a pass.
