Vance Glorifies Grandma's 19 Loaded Guns At Home

Less than a week after an assassination attempt on his running-mate's life, VP nominee JD Vance glorified his grandmother apparently having 19 loaded handguns just strewn everywhere around her house, which they discovered shortly after her death.

I hope she didn't have any kids in her house, or this little anecdote about grandma wanting to "protect her family" may have been a tragedy instead.
