Congressman Dan Buck (R-CO) is trending on Twitter after posting a sinister video with the red, white, and blue AR-15 mounted in his office.
The Congressman challenged Democratic presidential candidate and former Vice President Joe Biden, along with former Democratic presidential candidate Beto O'Rourke to "come and take" the assault weapon from him.
Watch the unsettling video below.
Buck says in the video:
"I have a message for Joe Biden and Beto O'Rourke. If you want to take everyone's AR-15 in America, why don't you swing by my office in Washington, DC and start with this one? Come and take it."
Biden was famously instrumental in passing a ten year assault weapons ban in 1994, while Beto said in a Democratic debate, "Hell, yes, we're going to take your AR-15, your AK-47," after noting the power of the weapons to kill multiple people in a matter of seconds.
O'Rourke was quick to respond.
Others who lost loved ones to AR-15 violence rebuked Buck (Warning: graphic description below).
The menacing video was shocking to many.
Some pointed out that Buck's handling of the gun indicated he doesn't know how to safely use it.
Just a day before posting this video, Buck accused Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) of making threats to Supreme Court justices.
Not a good look, Ken.
