NRA Supporters Launch Vicious, Misogynistic Twitter Attack On Gun Reform Leader
When Shannon Watts, the founder of Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America, was blocked by the NRA on Twitter yesterday, she tweeted it. It shall come as a surprise to no one ever that that was met with a slew of vicious misogynistic remarks by NRA supporters.
The mother of 5 frightens them that much. She’s a beautiful and intelligent woman, so naturally, she’s a threat.
It started with this tweet.
Naturally, that innocuous tweet became a platform to attack the Gun Sense advocate by NRA supporters. The hashtag #ImBlockedByShannonWatts started trending on Twitter.
The alleged human responsible for creating that hashtag is none other than Julie Golob, world shooting champion and author of the book “Shooting While Pregnant.” No, really.
So Ms. Watts is retweeting some vulgar responses to her one tweet.
Oh, this is such a winning strategy.
And this tweet by Katie Pavlich gave the onslaught some legs:
NRA supporters, I have some advice for you. If you want to appear to be female-friendly, don’t call a woman a “Bitch”, a “cunt”, “twat’ or tell her she needs to “get back in the kitchen.”
Include “bimbo” to the list of things not to call a woman.
Ms. Watts isn’t too worried about the vicious attack.
Bring it. Not scared. Won’t be bullied. Blocked by the #NRA @MomsDemand #gunsense pic.twitter.com/wsQATfcr2a

Ever notice that when both Bloomberg and Watts go out in public they are surrounded by armed guards? But they both seemingly, by their words and actions, don’t want the peons to be able to defend themselves.
bobrobertson December 28th, 2014 at 00:06
A lot of R/W wackos out there want to kill people they disagree with.
Ask the Secret Service.
meadmkr December 28th, 2014 at 00:08
Exactly how many attempts on their life were made?
MagnaDave★★ December 28th, 2014 at 00:11
YES! They should wait until AFTER an attempt is made because that always works out well.
meadmkr December 28th, 2014 at 00:13
So the average citizen should also be able to carry a means to defend themselves, especially if they don’t have the financial means to hire bodyguards right?
bobrobertson December 28th, 2014 at 00:15
Who wants to kill you?
meadmkr December 28th, 2014 at 00:18
Both of the would-be muggers that tried it. One got a face full of pepper spray and the other one wet themselves when I drew my duty-weapon on them.
IntolerantLiberal December 28th, 2014 at 01:43
Um lets see how many criminals mugged, robbed, raped, and tried to murder someone in the last hour?
MagnaDave★★ December 28th, 2014 at 00:24
It.s because the “average” citizen can carry a gun that they must take precautions. Are you saying that they should not be allowed to protect themselves while the average citizen should be able to?
bobrobertson December 28th, 2014 at 00:13
They don’t release that info, but more threats are made against Obama than any other president. How many fence jumpers have there been?

Is it not hypocritical to have firearms protecting themselves but they would prevent the average citizen from the same opportunity?
MagnaDave★★ December 28th, 2014 at 00:23
Who is “taking your guns away?” What legislation was passed that does so? What legislation is currently under consideration that would do so? If there is any, what chance does that legislation have of passing and being ruled constitutional?
meadmkr December 28th, 2014 at 00:31
Look at CA/CT/MD’s “approved” gun list as an example of “gun control” run amok.
Firearms that were legal to own are now prohibited in these states at the whim of some bureaucrat. Allowing the federal government the same level of power is unwise and insane.
Jay Cee December 28th, 2014 at 02:03
The approved handgun list in California isnt unwise or insane. There was a gun I was going to buy with aluminum grips and I was prevented from buying it and instead had to buy the same gun with the wood grips. I was lucky that the list kept me from buying the unsafe aluminum grip gun. I could have cut my hand and got a very bad infection!
IntolerantLiberal December 28th, 2014 at 01:42
Why is it that rich liberals who want guns out of the hands of the peasants are able to pay for ARMED body guards?
MagnaDave★★ December 28th, 2014 at 01:57
I’m guessing because they are rich. Whose guns have they taken away? Be specific.
Mark Travers December 28th, 2014 at 02:04
Uh ? Dumb analogy. Geez.
Jay Cee December 28th, 2014 at 01:58
The assault weapons ban that lasted 10 years. It prevented people from buying any, and that’s as good as “taking them away”. Diane Fienstein just tried to pass another ban not that long ago. She failed but she tried. See the reason gun owners support the NRA is that we know that if there wasn’t an NRA, we pretty much have a complete gun ban. If no one was there to stop some politicians, gun owners would be sunk. The Brady campaign pushed hard in the 1980s for a handgun ban. This was before heller and McDonald obviously but they were already trying. I’m sure if there was no NRA most people would have no guns. Of course criminals would still have some of the ones floating around.
MagnaDave★★ December 28th, 2014 at 02:03
So, no-one is taking anyone’s guns away.
Jay Cee December 28th, 2014 at 02:23
No, with the NRA and other gun rights groups fighting for us, guns will not be taken away.
MagnaDave★★ December 28th, 2014 at 02:33
Then why all the hysteria?
Jay Cee December 28th, 2014 at 03:11
There’s no hysteria. I came here wondering why Shannon Watts was surprised the NRA blocked her when she’s pretty much blocked anyone who ever made a comment that was remotely pro gun rights.
MagnaDave★★ December 28th, 2014 at 03:25
I was referring to the right-wing hysteria about people coming to take their guns when no-one is.
As to her blocking people, I can only assume that it’s her site and she can do what she wants.
Jay Cee December 28th, 2014 at 03:40
Yeah she can block away, and so can the NRA. But if she thinks it’s because of fear they’re blocking, they are mistaken. Well maybe the fear of being nagged. Sort of like they kept nagging businesses until they get their way. They seem more like the bullies sometimes.
MagnaDave★★ December 28th, 2014 at 03:50
I have to be completely honest and admit that I didn’t read the article. But, I guess that we could agree that it’s a contentious issue and both sides employ questionable tactics. Which, I guess, is part of the problem. Every issue gets divided into “sides” and both seem determined to win at any cost.
Mark Travers December 28th, 2014 at 02:05
Meadmrk, poor analogy. Yes, there are folks supporting tougher gun control laws such as Background checks. Those views are not mutually exclusive from having security guards. Grow-up.

MagnaDave★★ December 28th, 2014 at 21:51
Someone, I can’t remember who, told me that they had been banned from a site that they had never even visited. So maybe both cases were some sort of a glitch?
I have very mixed feelings about RS. Ironically, right after I decided that I should spend more time there, they changed the format to a more tabloid style and banned some people for no good reasons. I went to bat for A2P and contacted the main moderator there. Although she was very polite and maybe somewhat understanding, she just couldn’t seem to admit that he had been banned unfairly, much less, reinstate him. Although, to be fair, she said that he would have to contact them directly before they would consider reinstating him which I can understand. A2P, understandably, wasn’t willing to do that.
RS, to me, has become too much like HP for my tastes. Too many “controversial” headlines and stories seemingly designed only to get clicks. But, like the old HP, there are still some good people posting there so I check in, maybe read and/or comment on a story of two, and see what everyone is saying.

Most of America does not want background checks and common sense laws, Because these laws are lies, and ways to track and a check list for gun grabbers to know whom to go after, if they ever try to over turn the Second Amendment! They will be taking my guns only out of my cold dead hands! People like you and the MDA are sick in the head, and need to be removed from MY country! This is a country that build on the blood of people that laid down their lives to keep it free and to uphold the Constitution of the United States of America. Pansies like you and the MDA need to realize they are fighting an uphill battle, just a couple of weeks ago people disobeyed that stupid I594 law, and this is just the start these laws are not legal, because the 2nd Amendment trumps all other laws! deal with it or leave this country!

Mark Travers December 28th, 2014 at 01:55
Fenix, uh, you are wrong. In Washington State, the NRA put forth millions of dollars to defeat a proposed initiative that would put forth tougher gun laws such as mandatory background checks on private gun sales. The pro gun control law won overwhelmingly and the NRA got their ass kicked. Also, CA same thing. Your ‘spin’ on who is winning is just fatuous statements. Moreover, NRA fought very hard to Defeat Vivek Murthy as Obama’s Surgeon General be he won his nomination. Keep drinking that NRA marketing Kool-Aid and calling folks ‘commies’ or ‘pansies’ who support tougher gun laws but that is NOT working too well for the NRA.
Fenix Izgawd December 28th, 2014 at 15:49
California is becoming a shale issues state! People in Washington State, have been misinformed and lied to with that bill (I594) and it will not stand the test of time. As for the loses this last election, there were more in the win column then the loss column. Bloomberg wasted a lot of money and didn’t get as much as he was hoping for! But I am sure you will bring some lame made up numbers like those uptight bitches in MDA!
Mark Travers December 28th, 2014 at 15:54
Fenix, continue the mis-information that the NRA is so known for. The fact of the matter is that the NRA marketing machine tried everything they could, everything, and even supported another Initiative in order to confuse the voters but they failed big time. Other states are now looking at Washington state as a model state for tougher gun control laws. You really need to read the article from the Wall Street Journal about 3 weeks back because they are a conservative outfit and even they wrote that the NRA lost some important political issues this time around. And, the latest lost by the NRA to try and block President Obama’s nominee for the USA Surgeon General blew-up in their face. Keep drinking that NRA Kool-Aid because I fully understand it makes your unstable self feel safe. LOL
Fenix Izgawd January 2nd, 2015 at 13:42

Matt W. You are a retard, the NRA is relevant, and with the help of the NRA this election (2014) we wiped the MDA and all the Democrats ass up from a major beat down. Most of America does not want background checks and common sense laws, Because these laws are lies, and ways to track and a check list for gun grabbers to know whom to go after, if they ever try to over turn the Second Amendment! They will be taking my guns only out of my cold dead hands! People like you and the MDA are sick in the head, and need to be removed from MY country! This is a country that build on the blood of people that laid down their lives to keep it free and to uphold the Constitution of the United States of America. Pansies like you and the MDA need to realize they are fighting an uphill battle, just a couple of weeks ago people disobeyed that stupid I594 law, and this is just the start these laws are not legal, because the 2nd Amendment trumps all other laws! deal with it or leave this country! Long Live the NRA!!!!

Mark Travers December 28th, 2014 at 02:55
Fenix, uh, you are wrong. In Washington State, the NRA put forth millions of dollars to defeat a proposed initiative that would put forth tougher gun laws such as mandatory background checks on private gun sales. The pro gun control law won overwhelmingly and the NRA got their ass kicked. Also, CA same thing. Your ‘spin’ on who is winning is just fatuous statements. Moreover, NRA fought very hard to Defeat Vivek Murthy as Obama’s Surgeon General be he won his nomination. Keep drinking that NRA marketing Kool-Aid and calling folks ‘commies’ or ‘pansies’ who support tougher gun laws but that is NOT working too well for the NRA.
Fenix Izgawd December 28th, 2014 at 16:49
California is becoming a shale issues state! People in Washington State, have been misinformed and lied to with that bill (I594) and it will not stand the test of time. As for the loses this last election, there were more in the win column then the loss column. Bloomberg wasted a lot of money and didn’t get as much as he was hoping for! But I am sure you will bring some lame made up numbers like those uptight bitches in MDA!
Mark Travers December 28th, 2014 at 16:54
Fenix, continue the mis-information that the NRA is so known for. The fact of the matter is that the NRA marketing machine tried everything they could, everything, and even supported another Initiative in order to confuse the voters but they failed big time. Other states are now looking at Washington state as a model state for tougher gun control laws. You really need to read the article from the Wall Street Journal about 3 weeks back because they are a conservative outfit and even they wrote that the NRA lost some important political issues this time around. And, the latest lost by the NRA to try and block President Obama’s nominee for the USA Surgeon General blew-up in their face. Keep drinking that NRA Kool-Aid because I fully understand it makes your unstable self feel safe. LOL
Fenix Izgawd January 2nd, 2015 at 14:42
Now who has drank the Kool-Aid!? You believe mainstream media and not the winds of truth around you. Maybe because you live in a state where the people have also drank the Kool-Aid! Californian is waking up then in time your pitiful state will too!

NRA just got their ass kicked in Washington state on trying to defeat a gun control initiative. Other states are now looking to copy the legislation from Washington State.
“In the only state where a gun issue was directly on a ballot this week, Washington residents passed Initiative 594, the measure that will require criminal background checks on all firearms sales and transfers in the state, including at gun shows and on the Internet. The proposal, more commonly referred to as “I-594,” gained 60% of voter support, according to the NBC News Election Unit.”
Scar December 28th, 2014 at 08:31
The wording of the bill says “anything that uses gunpowder”
Which means things like the flare guns people have on their boats, and certain construction equipment, like concrete nail guns. Both of those will now require background checks before they can be bought, or given to someone else, lest they become criminals in the eye of that law.

I’m going to go with yes, I agree with the sentiment and this is Liberal Land but mostly because it’s not directed at an indiviual – you recognize the difference, right?
Mark Morrison December 28th, 2014 at 12:54
Absolutely. So making nasty comments about anti-gunners is fine as long as it is all encompassing? Or are only those who rabidly slant liberal (or agree with you as an admin) allowed to denigrate and insult?
I support gay marriage and drug decriminalization. Does that mean I get to make disgusting comments now?
Carla Akins December 28th, 2014 at 13:00
The comment is far from disgusting – try reading the tweets Ms Watts received. If you don’t like it here, you are free to go to a more gun-friendly site

MDA has blocked pro 2nd amendment folks, including me, for quite some time now from Facebook comments, etc.. Shannon Troughton “Watts”, is a fraud. She’s a high powered public relations professional who uses a pseudonym to con her constituents. A far cry from the “stay at home mom” she purports to be to her bleating followers.

Big difference between working from home and being a “stay at home mom”. The persona she projects is a homemaker that woke up one morning enraged by Sandy Hook. In fact, she’s a high powered PR executive bought and paid for by Bloomberg.
Tom Guy December 28th, 2014 at 12:04
so you keep saying without siting references, buddy. the NRA has bought half of congress and all of your angels
Anomaly 100 December 28th, 2014 at 13:51
You do know that a mother can also work at home, RIGHT?
Crucible Arms December 28th, 2014 at 10:40
She portrays herself as a stay at home mom. In reality she was a high powered PR executive with WellPoint Health, GE Healthcare, and even evil chemical giant Monsanto. This is no average ordinary mother of five who just coincidentally freaked out over the Sandy Hook shootings.
Um Cara December 28th, 2014 at 10:54
This is no average ordinary mother of five who just coincidentally freaked out over the Sandy Hook shootings.
I’m not sure why a mother who is/has been a successful professional is a ‘fraud’ for then working on gun control stuff. You seem more articulate and more capable of writing coherent sentences than most of the folks who have hopped over to the site for this thread.
Could you explain why any of that matters and why it merits more attention from you than the horrible abuse she has received?
Crucible Arms December 28th, 2014 at 11:06
She positions herself as a stay at home mom to garner support. She’s being disingenuous and manipulative. As a Public Relations professional, she understands that being “just a mommy” sells with her target audience. It’s manufactured. She’s bought and paid for by the Bloomberg campaign. As for her being “horribly abused”, it’s nothing in comparison to the abuses she wants heaped on law abiding citizens acting within their rights. She’s not against illegal guns, she’s against all guns. There’s a huge difference.

Mark Morrison December 28th, 2014 at 11:18
It is not hidden. Bloomberg’s Everytown finances MDA.
Crucible Arms December 28th, 2014 at 11:21
Do your homework. “And this week, Bloomberg and Watts announced a new organization, Everytown for Gun Safety, and a $50 million plan to hold anti-safety politicians accountable in this year’s elections… with far greater investments possible down the line.” Bloomberg is financing Troughton “Watts”.
Carla Akins December 28th, 2014 at 11:50
After – Bloomberg donated to her cause after she began the group and as she started to get a following. The same as any activist. And she is a stay at home, she doesn’t hold a job outside the home – particularly before she started MDA – how would you like for her to refer to herself?
Tom Guy December 28th, 2014 at 12:01
you’re terrible at homework, crutch. and you just received a wedgie and a swirlie for lying twice.
mea_mark December 28th, 2014 at 11:36
So if she is now a stay at home mom, you want her to say she is not? Why would you want that, so you can then call her a liar? You have an agenda also and your disingenuousness is duly noted.
Um Cara December 28th, 2014 at 11:52
As a Public Relations professional, she understands that being “just a mommy” sells with her target audience. It’s manufactured.
I’ve had the pleasure to work with some amazing women who achieved great success. Many of them were mothers. A couple worked from home.
It never would have entered my head to consider them ‘frauds’ for being mothers & working from home. I’m not aware of any specific ‘stay at home mom’ criteria that caps a woman’s professional success level in order for her to claim the title. But it’s not something I have ever thought about one way or the other – so perhaps I missed it.
Could you point me to the source you are using for your personal definition of ‘stay at home mom’?
Tom Guy December 28th, 2014 at 11:59

Crucible Arms December 28th, 2014 at 11:05
The conversation isn’t about Sandy Hook, it’s about Shannon “Watts” Troughton. You do what she does, try and change the subject rather than dealing with the facts of the matter at hand, her identity and deception. Nice try.

But, but Mark have you read the other commnts? Just wondering.
Mark Morrison December 28th, 2014 at 11:51
Oh yes. I have been in this debate for years now, and have seen some extraordinarily disgusting behavior from both sides. It doesn’t surprise me anymore. What does continue to surprise (and amaze) me every day however, is how blindly partisan so many are, and how they manufacture outrage at things individuals ideologically opposed to them do, while ignoring the same behavior from those similarly inclined in their beliefs.
allison1050 December 28th, 2014 at 11:57
Allow me to ask this of you Mark, how would you feel about being referred to as “bleating followers”? By the way, gunz are a penis extension for too many so called men who feel that they have to define themselves with the number of gunz, cars, motorcycles they own and therefore think of themselves as inadequate in that department but sadly continue to define themselves in this unfortunate way.
Mark Morrison December 28th, 2014 at 12:06
See? You just did it. It appears that far too many of you are unable to carry on this conversation without it devolving into ridiculous name calling and childish mud-slinging.
Read my comments. Find the insults. You will be looking for a while I promise.
As far as your question about the “bleating followers,” I would dismiss it (and the person making the comment) as too lost in partisan intransigence to communicate with effectively. I have had anti-gun activists tell me that they hoped my kids got shot. How does that sound to you? How would you feel about that? That doesn’t mean that I believe that all of you feel that way. It was just a comment by an obviously disturbed and angry person who I dismissed as such.
allison1050 December 28th, 2014 at 12:41
Since you of course know nothing of my education or work history Mark then let’s just stop for a quick sec and give it (the part about “See? You just did it”) stuff just a bit of thought then…..
Source your claim of anti-gun activists telling you that crap about your kids then I’ll believe you Mark if not then you’re just making a statement that’s not really believable.
Before I let you go do you realize that we’ve had what’s commonly referred to as a conversation? Just thought I’d point that tidbit out as 1 of the “far too many of you” people. I’ve been reading since age 4 and you stand out like a sore thumb Mark. And Dismissed! lol ;o)

If I know that people are working from home surely Crucible does so I’m wondering why you don’t know and why you would take pretend offense? A couple of mods had no issue with it. ;o)) Thanks anyway Sarah and have a Happy New Year.

I don’t need your resume just like you really don’t need mine. but a lot of us have been in the military and have traveled the world also. You have no idea what I have seen through my work or volunteering young lady and believe me when I tell you that YOU can’t imagine what I have seen let alone dealt with. Don’t ever think that you can lecture me Sarah ’cause it’s not going to work alright? As long as you understand that you and I will get along just fine.

Since you of course know nothing of my education or work history Mark then let’s just stop for a quick sec and give it (the part about “See? You just did it”) stuff just a bit of thought then…..
Source your claim of anti-gun activists telling you that crap about your kids then I’ll believe you Mark if not then you’re just making a statement that’s not really believable.
Before I let you go do you realize that we’ve had what’s commonly referred to as a conversation? Just thought I’d point that tidbit out as 1 of the “far too many of you” people. I’ve been reading since age 4 and you stand out like a sore thumb Mark. And Dismissed! lol ;o)

Thank you mea.

Sarah, maybe you’re too young to realize that quite a few people commenting are of a more shall I say “mature” age than possibly you? If I know that people are working from home surely Crucible does so I’m wondering why you don’t know and why you would take pretend offense? A couple of mods had no issue with it. ;o)) Thanks anyway Sarah and have a Happy New Year.

I’m 37 and a veteran of the US Army. I’ve been around the world and have seen things you could only imagine. Drop your condescending tone please.

I’m old enough to be your mother my dear and if that’s really a photo of Crucible then he is old enough to be your dad. I don’t need your resume just like you really don’t need mine. but a lot of us have been in the military and have traveled the world also. You have no idea what I have seen through my work or volunteering young lady and believe me when I tell you that YOU can’t imagine what I have seen let alone dealt with. Don’t ever think that you can lecture me Sarah ’cause it’s not going to work alright? As long as you understand that you and I will get along just fine.
