THREAD: The DFL Party uncovered dozens of violent illustrations created by @mngop-endorsed State House candidate Donald Raleigh.
These comics depict the murder of children, members of the military, government employees, and more. This is as despicable as it gets. #mnleg

An overwhelming majority of Minnesotans support common-sense gun safety reform. The absolute last person we need in St. Paul is someone like Donald Raleigh who makes crude and disgusting jokes about the murder of children like the one pictured below:
Donald Raleigh’s deranged comics depict and make light of dozens of gun homicides, including:
- members of the military
- the U.S. President
- a Jehovah’s Witness
- a blind man
Will the @mngop condemn this disgusting display from one of their own candidates?

Unfortunately, this is highly unlikely.
The @mngop has refused to say a word about their candidates who support the dangerous QAnon conspiracy theory, Senator Chamberlain’s promotion of a fascist manifesto, and so much more. We doubt they can find the decency to condemn this:

Since they won’t take action, it’s on us to get out and vote. We need to make sure candidates that don’t share our values don’t represent us. Head to http://iwillvote.com/mn to make a plan to vote, and be sure to support Raleigh’s opponent, the fantastic @KrisForUs.
The proof:
Before being scrubbed from the internet, the comics were posted to http://mygun.com , which Raleigh claims to own on his economic interest statement. After the comics were erased, http://mygun.com became a website for Don’s firearm instruction business.

Lastly, in a comic depicting the authors themselves, the Don character looks as similar to Don Raleigh as these crude comics can.
It’s also worth noting that Don Raleigh has a brother, Dan. These violent works are clearly his and should be disqualifying.

Minnesota, we deserve better than Don Raleigh. Visit http://www.voteforkris.com to learn more about Don’s opponent, Kris Fredrick.
Kris is a father who works for his local school district, provides pro bono legal services for folks in need, and will make a terrific State Rep!
