Rabat – Nevada Assemblywoman Michele Fiore, a Republican who is pro-gun activist said during a radio segment that she would personally shoot Syrian refugees “in the head”.
During Fiore’s weekly show Walk the Talk with Michele Fiore, on Las Vegas radio station KWDN, she declared her rejection of allowing Syrian refugees in Nevada.
Following the show, Fiore was interviewed by GOP political consultant Chuck Muth regarding her opposition to resettle the refugees.
According to her own recount during the November 21 radio show, she answered Muth: “What–are you kidding me? I’m about to fly to Paris and shoot ‘em in the head myself!”
“I am not OK with Syrian refugees. I’m not OK with terrorists. I’m OK with putting them down, blacking them out, just put a piece of brass in their ocular cavity and end their miserable life. I’m good with that,” she added.
Following the release of the controversial audio, Fiore told Las Vegas news station KSNV on Wednesday that she meant terrorists, although she stressed, “I’m not going to back down”.
“I never said I would shoot a Syrian refugee, period. What I said if it came down to a terrorist or myself I would not hesitate to kill a terrorist…period.”
The Republican woman outraged social media users last week when she posted her family’s Christmas card photo on her Facebook profile on December 1.
In the controversial Christmas card, all members of her family, including a toddler, are carrying or wearing weapon ranging from a pistol to automatic guns.
The Republican woman captioned her family’s photo with: “From My Family To Yours, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays’ Michele Fiore”.
Michele is a candidate for Nevada’s third district in Congress, according to her campaign website.
Last month, she also released a ‘sexy’ calendar of herself for 2016, named “Second Amendment Calendar” in which she appears holding different types of weapons.
