Again, Missouri Democrat Lucas
Kunce
has no chance of unseating incumbent Republican Sen. Josh Hawley.
He’s a sacrificial lamb, but one that’s become the butt of jokes since
he shot a local reporter at an ill-fated campaign event
at a gun range. Adam Kinzinger was there. It was a total disaster. The
reporter, Ryan Gamboa, got hit with shrapnel because, based on the
photos, Kunce and company were shooting long guns way too close. Also,
Tannerite was on the table—I’m shocked no one got blown up. That was bad
enough. The latest is that Kunce waited until the next day to call the
police about the incident (via NY Post):
A television reporter still has shrapnel embedded in his
arm after being wounded at a campaign event for Democratic Senate
candidate Lucas Kunce that was held at a shooting range — and the
Missouri politician didn’t call the cops until the day after the mishap,
according to a police report obtained by The Post.
A stray bullet
fragment hit KHSB-TV reporter Ryan Gamboa in his right arm as he was
covering the Oct. 22 event, making “a small puncture wound on his upper
arm” that felt to him only like a “pinch” before he felt the warm blood
soaking his shirt sleeve.
“He rolled his sleeve up and observed his arm covered in blood and notified someone nearby,” the report states.

Kunce left the firing range
at 4:15 p.m. CDT and didn’t call the Clinton County Sheriff’s Office to
report the incident until Oct. 23.
Who does this guy think he is, a Kennedy? Either way, Hawley was able
to thread this incident into an attack during their debate:
Just brutal.
