Did a search and couldn't find a post on this. Check the ad out. The Right has made a commercial using the left's tactics. Did it go too far?

Sorry if Germans.
Ad Uses Scalise shooting

“When will it stop? It won’t if Jon Ossoff wins on Tuesday,” the narrator continues.


Yikes. It's as if jjdoc and GumpoPot formed a PAC.

Are we denying that some sick fricks are doing this from the liberal side?

Say it with me folks, radical liberal terrorists.

I think the ad is in bad taste. But I can't find anything in it that is factually incorrect.

Nice. Using the Scalise shooting in an attack ad while he's still in the hospital....

Stay classy, Karen Handel.

Not a big fan of pointing out radical liberal terrorists? I don't blame you.

The ad points it out, did you watch it?

What in the ad is factually inaccurate?

Ossoff is likely anti-gun.

He didn't respond to questions from the NRA I read somewhere.

He'll likely utter the words "common sense gun laws" even though that is just meaningless drivel at this point.

See this is what happens. They did it, so we can do it. It's game theory and everybody loses in the end because honest political discourse is reduced to attack ads.

The spot then shows several images and videos including one of comedian Kathy Griffin holding a fake severed head that looks like President Trump, as well as a letter that reads “Resist the Fascist takeover. String up the collaborators.”

I don't care for ads like this...but which part of the paragraph above is wrong? They were all done by the left, and the right kept saying it would catch up to them. the problem for the left is that these are well known incidents that point fingers directly at the progressive base....because they did those things and said those things. Amazing how they don't want those things to come to light in an election, now, isn't it?

Ossoff called the politicization of the shooting that injured Scalise and four others last week “disgraceful.”

Was he upset with the calls for gun control after the incident? NOPE.
