Man Wearing Pro-Gun T-shirt Thrown Out of Voting Booth

minutemennews.com - Election officials ejected a Texas man from a voting booth because he was wearing a Second Amendment t-shirt.

Chris Driskill was prevented from voting at the Waller County Courthouse on Tuesday after officials claimed he was violating Texas Election Code section 85.036, which states that "a person may not electioneer for or against any candidate, measure, or political party" in or within 100 feet of a voting location.

"I heard a gentleman's voice over my shoulder say 'he can't vote with that shirt on. You'll have to either turn it inside out our you'll have to leave,'" Driskill told KVUE.

It includes decades-old footage of National Rifle Association Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre saying the gun lobby group approves of the checks. LaPierre recently testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee that the NRA no longer supports background checks for all gun sales. A Bloomsberg spokesman would say only that the ad cost in the six-figure range....
