MAGA Candidate’s Mock Execution Video Sparks Outrage
Republican congressional candidate Valentina Gomez’s recent video simulating the execution of an immigrant has sparked widespread outrage. The video, which depicts Gomez shooting a dummy while advocating for public executions of undocumented immigrants who commit violent crimes, has been flagged by X for violating its rules against violent speech. Criticism came from various sources, including Colombian President Gustavo Petro and the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC), who condemned the video’s glorification of vigilantism. Despite the controversy, some expressed support for Gomez’s views, highlighting the divisive nature of her rhetoric.
