And this time, it's directed at Kentucky Senate Candidate Alison Lundergan Grimes (D) (who is running to attempt to unseat Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R)) for offering her rival to a gun club for a challenge and being allegedly "anti-2nd Amendment."
Here were Loesch's insensitive tweets discussing Grimes holding a gun while shooting:
Helps to practice what you preach on safety by using eye and ear protection. https://t.co/jyCPP047gS

Hi @AlisonForKY ! Eye and ear protection. This is how it's done. http://t.co/F4ISGsnVGy

Loesch smeared Grimes for not having eye and ear protection while using a gun. I bet if it was a Republican doing the same thing that ALG did, then Loesch will give that person a pass instead.
@letsgokath LOL u missed pt. Palin actually shoulders a rifle properly, doesn't lecture on gun-grabbing safety @SarahPalinUSA @AlisonForKY

Some progressive is angry that I accurately called out @AlisonForKY ‘s staged photo. I’ll do it again for smiles: https://t.co/gBTEro8UQY

Jed Lewison at Daily Kos has the real facts and slams McConnell shill Brad Dayspring:
Well, you know what? Maybe Mitch could take Grimes up on her invitation and offer a free lesson or two in gun safety, complete with his choice of earmuffs and goggles. Now that's a sight I'd pay to see.
Update: It gets even more ridiculous:Such a ridiculous unforced failure MT @DLoesch: Hi @AlisonForKY ! Eye and ear protection. This is how it's done. http://t.co/...— @BDayspring
Politico:
Firing a twitter shot at Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, senatorial candidate Alison Lundergan Grimes on Friday challenged the incumbent to join her on her shooting range while jabbing his service to the state.
[...]In addition to criticizing McConnell, the tweet was an attempt to clarify Grimes’ position on gun rights.
“As an NRA member, my strong support for the Second Amendment is unquestioned. I am proud of Kentucky’s long-held gun ownership, sporting and hunting traditions,” Grimes said in a statement. “It is unfortunate that Senator McConnell is desperate to mislead Kentucky voters about my strong support for the Second Amendment.”
Whenever he's not busy pandering to DC lobbyists, I welcome Sen. McConnell to come shoot with me at the range any day pic.twitter.com/p00Zm3fGks

That photo is NOT staged whatsoever, contrary to Loesch and Dayspring's self-serving bullshit spin.
She still neglected to use proper PPE....obviously a poor attempt to reach out to gun owners and to falsely state that she will support our second amendment rights. That's the whole point of calling her out no matter how dilusional the author of this piece is.
