Pistol-packing ‘Women for Trump’ graduation photo brings torrent of ‘hate’

All it took for University of Tennessee senior Brenna Spencer to spark a viral gun debate was a “Women for Trump” shirt and a personal handgun.

Gun control advocates were none too pleased this week when a 22-year-old “Volunteer” attracted nearly 75,000 “likes” to her graduation picture. Reactions to the pro-Second Amendment image also garnered the attention of media outlets ranging from ABC News to The New York Post.

“I did think that it would get a little attention but not to this degree,” Ms. Spencer told ABC for an interview published Monday. “It was really, really surprising to see the amount of hate that I got.”

The photo was taken Saturday outside the Hunter Museum of American Art in Chattanooga.

“I don’t take normal college graduation photos,” a caption with her tweet says.

Some of the negative feedback included:

Hunter Museum of American Art in Chattanooga prohibits firearms on its property. She violated the CCW law in TN.

Good for her! Although she could say something bad about Trump and she'd still be hot!

Sorry, 12:57, but Hunter Museum bans firearms inside their building, not on the grounds in general. Try to keep up.

Gee, which generation would that be? And it seems to me you are somewhat jealous of others who do "want attention". Her "attention" is towards an action, not towards herself. IMO.

I see nothing wrong with what she has done and I support and applaud her for doing so.

I could be wrong, but it seems to me you think she posed for this picture to show off her looks rather than her statement. Regardless, she stood for something and no one has to agree with her. I would ask though, people would attack her message and not HER.

I hope you and others know the difference.
