Former Baseball Star Says He's Training His Sons On 'How To Use A Gun' In Case Bernie Beats Trump In 2020

Aubrey Huff is a former player for the San Francisco Giants, but is now known mostly for his conservative tweets.

Though many of his posts seem to be inspired by the far-right, one recently crossed a line and caused a major controversy on social media.


Alongside a picture of himself at a firing range, Huff wrote about teaching his children how to shoot just in case Bernie Sanders, a democratic socialist, became President.

If that was the truth, the ability to hit "head shots" would apparently become necessary:

"Getting my boys trained up on how to use a gun in the unlikely event [Bernie Sanders] beats [Donald Trump] in 2020. In which case knowing how to effectively use a gun under socialism will be a must."

Huff added:

"By the way most the head shots were theirs."

He then tagged the National Rifle Association (NRA) and BlazeTV personality Chad Prather as if both would support training children to murder political opponents.

Kathy Griffin, who was briefly ostracized from the entertainment industry for posing with a fake decapitated President Trump-head, highlighted the fact that conservatives could actively advocate for gun violence with no obvious consequences.

Huff responded as if Griffin was the dumb one for calling him out.

When Tom Arnold posted backing Griffin up, Huff lashed out at him as well.

This is the same former baseball player who, this past May, said that athletes should keep their political opinions to themselves.

Meanwhile, all across Twitter, Huff was being dragged.




Huff briefly tried to defend himself...but was quickly shut down.


Kathy Griffin also continued to spar with Huff, quoting reports of his past questionable behavior.


Huff's tweet, in which he fantasized about gun violence in the event of a Democratic victory in 2020, was condemned even by many conservatives.

Obviously, gun violence is never the answer.

For Huff, the answer is more likely something simple like "stay off Twitter."

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
