The man was identified as Ryan Wesley Routh, 58. Property and court records indicate a long criminal past in North Carolina and that he lived most recently in Hawaii.
Rolling Stone says it’s a MAC-10, but that’s the only reference I could find.
Johnson is not a middle-of-the-road politician. She owns a MAC-10 submachine gun — and received an A-rating from the NRA. On the campaign trail, she comes across like a pro-choice Ron DeSantis, vowing to give a voice to “really pissed off” Oregonians who are “terrified of the progressive left,” while blasting “wokeness” as “another form of intolerance.”
I was honestly shocked there isn’t video of her blasting away at something as so many others seem to do any more.
I was also wondering if it was a Johnson Machine Gun and she was related to the inventor or that it was at least something historical.
Now for the personal interest bit - I would pay real dollars in a pay per view for the comedy that would be her trying to recoil control a mac-10 at like a range or something.
I dunno, her dad is ex military and she’s a helicopter pilot who did competitive helicopter games with the Soviets in the 70s from what I could find. I think she can use it.
