Congressman Thomas Massie: I'll never delete family Christmas card photo with guns

Rep. Thomas Massie said Monday he'll never delete the controversial photo he posted over the weekend of him and his family holding guns in front of a Christmas tree.

Massie's picture has gotten over 81,000 "likes" on Twitter but also attracted a lot of criticism because he posted it less than a week after four teenagers in Michigan were killed in the nation's latest mass school shooting.

"A lot of people think that's going to be our Christmas card," Massie said of the gun-filled photo during a Monday interview on conservative radio host Todd Starnes' show.

"We actually took a very similar picture holding musical instruments because we like to shoot guns and play music when we get together as a family. And the one that's going on the Christmas card are bluegrass instruments."

Monster. The sad thing is he will just keep getting reelected because that whole state is crawling with disgusting gun humping monsters that think just like him. I'm kind of surprised that one of their even more unhinged yokels didn't try something when our president came to help with the tornado.
