GOP Senate Candidate’s Gunslinging Ad Sparks Outcry
Arizona Senate candidate Jim Lamon sparked outrage with a new campaign ad depicting an armed “showdown” with President Joe Biden, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), and incumbent Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ).
Lamon is dressed like a sheriff in the old West in the ad. He approaches three actors in cowboy costumes portraying Biden, Pelosi, and Kelly.
“The good people of Arizona have had enough of you. It’s time for a showdown,” Lamon says in the ad.
The three Democratic “cowboys” approach with guns, and Lamon shoots at their weapons, disarming them and prompting them to run away.
The ad sparked a backlash from critics, who pointed out that Kelly’s wife, former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ), was shot during an assassination attempt in 2011.
Giffords suffered a severe brain injury and has become a prominent advocate for gun control.
Shannon Watts, the founder of the gun control group Moms Demand Action, tweeted: “DISGUSTING: Former Rep. Gabby Giffords was shot and seriously wounded 10 years ago. Her husband’s Republican US Senate opponent, [Jim Lamon], just put out an ad in which he shoots Mark Kelly and other Democrat leaders.”
Brian Murray, former executive director of the Arizona Republican Party, said the ad was Lamon’s “most pathetic” yet.
“I think when he loses he should start producing used car commercials. He’s perfect for that, and that ain’t no bull!”
Lamon pushed back against the criticism, calling it “feigned outrage.”
“Left wing snowflakes can’t stand the fact that, for once, AZ will have a Senator who will shoot straight with them & stop cowering to Biden,” Lamon tweeted.
“Their feigned outrage over our new Super Bowl ad came right on cue—but I won’t be backing down.”

The symbolism is lost on the Useful Idiots. Dems are so afraid of the “evil gun.”
Great ad!
As an independent voter, I thought the ad was pretty stupid. But one correction. He was not shooting at their bodies, he was shooting to knock the weapons out of their hands. This is what the “Lone Ranger” did so often!
They are sending in the clowns.
As I see it, If you do not like his ad, don’t vote for him. In the mean time, STFU.
I never heard of this guy and probably will not hear about him again, but this is the extent of my concern as he is not in my state.
Well done.
oh suck it up snowflakes…it is a truthful ad
Could not agree more.
Gabby Giffords was shot by one of her own people if you check? a left wing nut? over 90% of all shootings are done by liberals so out law liberals from owning guns and you fix all the shootings? there that was not hard to do was it? now give the snowflakes their safe space with coloring books and crayons and they will be just fine?
I LOVE it !!! ( I still watch re-runs of Gunsmoke.)
The lib dem snowflakes go sideways over gun control when they ought to be actively engaged in CRIME CONTROL. The guy who shot Gabby should have been publicly executed. A WAKE-UP CALL to all the criminals…
Tacky? Yeah. In bad taste? Probably. But nobody died. He shot the weapons out of their hands. Get over it. Folks being attacked by thugs in our cities and the illegals being escorted across the border aren’t as lucky. . . . .

Typical lying Democrat, he DID NOT shoot anyone. He shot the guns and knife they were using. They turned tail and ran away.
DISGUSTING: SHANNON WATTS a lying piece of shit.
Like the add. I don’t see a single person shot so get a life Democrats.
He’s on the mark but being a bit more subtle might work for those on the LEFT
He didn’t shoot them — he shot the weapons out of their hands (gun, knife and ???) and they ran away.
I’m pretty sure the ad depicted the ‘sheriff’ removing/disabling the weapons, not shooting individuals.
Shannon Watts, like all lying demtards, is lying about the ad. He doesn’t shoot anyone, he shoots their weapons out of their hands. Where was the outrage when President Trump was being attacked, threatened and Kathy Griffin carried a decapitated “Trump” head? Where was the outrage when vp Harris made threatening attempts to kill President Trump on the Ellen show? But let one GOP member make an ad that tells the truth and they come unglued. Dems are a bunch of unhinged, anti-American, anti-Christ, baby-killing hypocrites.
Perfect response.
I love the ad. Truth with the attention-grabbing headline, “It is time for a show down.” I hope the Dems keep playing the ad over and over.
Good ad! Should of shot lower!
It is a Great AD we should have more like it. No one was hurt, no one was killed but all were intimated. The left have no rights to talk look what they are doing all over our country; rape, killing and stealing everything cars, trucks, jewelry, food and big screen tv’s. just SHUT UP ALREADY.
Sheriff v. outlaws?
Perfect metaphor.
HA…
I love it…
He just disarms them all just like they want to do to all of us.
Shoot first! Ask questions later!
“Yippee-Ki-Yay ” as Bruce Willis would say – Wishing I was from Arizona so I could vote for Jim Lamon. Truthful aid and sweet to watch as well.
these same idiots are silent about Alec Baldwin shooting a REAL human being and walking free?
