Kansas governor candidate decries 'snowflake meltdown'

TOPEKA, Kan. — Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach says the outrage over his appearance in a parade atop a Jeep with a giant replica gun mounted on the back is "the left trying to attack guns" and the Second Amendment.

The Republican gubernatorial candidate said in a tweet Sunday that he will "not back down in the face of a snowflake meltdown and outrage culture."

The Kansas City suburb of Shawnee apologized in a statement to those who felt unsafe after Kobach's appearance at the Saturday morning parade.

The Kansas Division of Emergency Management says someone subsequently hacked its Twitter account and sent a message that read: "Hey Kris, I think you are a bad guy with a gun. Also, maybe worse, you a dumb guy with a gun."

rightwingers out there...Most notably tRump. Fire up
the news with b.s. irrelevant accusations. Get the
country folk all charged up on fake news and look
for the liberals to fire back with something the
gop can lie about..The best way to keep kohack
out of the governors chair is to ignore the worthless
handjob..make him shout and yell to the point
even western ks farmers can see what a lying
moron he is.
