A conservative candidate for the U.S. Senate just released an ad in which he waves a Glock with a 15-round magazine and promises to “blow your balls off.” Bob Quast, running as an independent in Iowa, makes clear he’s a strong Second Amendment fan, and opposes even limits on large magazines.
“If you are the sexual predator and sociopath who murdered my sister Lynette and you come to my front door to do harm to my girls, I’m going to use my Glock. To blow your balls off,” Quast says gleefully.
Quast is competing against Joni Ernst, the Sarah Palin supported candidate who stunned the nation with her ad touting her pig castration skills. In response to that ad Quast also brandishes a knife.
A third likely yet undeclared candidate for the seat is a U.S. Congressman from Iowa, Democrat Bruce Braley.
Glock and knife in hand, then laid down, Quast asks Braley to “please accept my open invitation for an open debate prior to our June 3rd primary. I will leave my gun at home, Joni can leave her knife on the farm as long as you agree to leave your elite law degree in D.C. We’ll just use our brains to debate your reckless laws and taxes like Braleycare.”
Quast attacks Braley’s “elite law degree” yet neglects to mention his own M.B.A.
Quast’s ad and his website don’t really put forth any actual policies or positions, aside from supporting the Second Amendment and term limits. His website notes, “I have contacted all 535 members of the US House and Senate, yet no one has supported my proposed two sentence federal law” on battling domestic violence. Quast doesn’t include the text, but if he cannot get even one of 535 members of Congress to support him, he would be an abject failure if elected to the Senate.
