Who in their right mind would consider it appropriate to shoot at a target representing a sitting U.S. congresswoman who happens to be a mother of three and a breast cancer survivor? I guess South Fla. Republican Robert Lowry finally saw the err in his ways and apologized for “the Mistake”.

The incident took place at a meeting of the Southeast Broward Republican Club. The members met at a gun club to demonstrate their right to bear arms and took target practice at "cut-outs of a Muslim holding a rocket-propelled grenade launcher." The targets wore a traditional Arab head scarf called a "kaffeyed".

Then some guy named Robert Lowry, who is running against Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz in the next election, shot a human-shaped target that had the letters "DWS" written next to the head. Lowry said he didn't know who wrote Wasserman Schultz's initials on his target, but said he knew they were there before he started shooting. He initially described it as a "joke," but after answering several questions, he said it "was a mistake" to use a target labeled "DWS."

Congresswoman Schultz said she would not dignify the incident with a response.

All I can say is "Stop the Madness"!
