Moms Demand Action Claim GOP Pearl Necklaces Were Mockery

By Tom Knighton

Politics has always been ugly. There’s a reason it was one of those topics of conversation you avoided in polite company. It’s always been known to devolve into ugliness quickly.

There’s a good reason for that. Politics is often about things that actually matter, and we have very divergent views on how to deal with problems, which lends itself to a certain degree of that ugliness.

That’s not to say that there’s no reason for it to get ugly. Some ideas and proponents are so idiotic that you’re almost required to point it out to them by whatever means works.

Sometimes, you do something and people think that’s what you’re doing, even if you didn’t. That’s what some New Hampshire Republicans are dealing with right now.

A women’s gun-control group says they were “mocked” by male lawmakers in New Hampshire on Tuesday, who wore pearl necklaces to a hearing they attended.

Dozens of members of the group Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense attended a meeting of the New Hampshire House Criminal Justice and Safety Committee to show their support for a law that would allow firearms to be confiscated from risky individuals.
