Mother Jones has an incredibly disturbing story about the treatment of women who support gun control by pro-gun lunatics who also happen to be raging, misogynistic assholes. And if you’ve been paying attention, you’d know that’s not a coincidence.

The story details women who have been spit on, received death threats, received rape threats, and had men show up at their homes and point guns at them.

The most disturbing part may be the “mad minute.”

In March, a group of them held a “mad minute” at a firing range, pulverizing a female mannequin with a hail of bullets. They positioned the figure with her hands raised in surrender, naked from the waist up. Afterward, they posed with the bullet-riddled mannequin, her arms blown off and her pants down at her ankles. “Mad minute” is a military expression referring to a burst of rapid fire, and Open Carry Texas members have often referred to Moms Demand Action as “mad moms.”

If shooting a mannequin that resembles a women with her pants pulled down to her ankles helps you get off, I sincerely hope every manner of government agency, your neighbors, and the local authorities are watching you like a hawk.
