In it, the congressman and 6 family members members are each and every carrying a military-type weapon within the residence, where they are gathered in front of a beribboned Xmas tree.
Massie’s spouse, Rhonda, also appears to be pointing her weapon toward the left side of a male grinning in the qualifications.
This questionable display of judgment comes 4 times right after a college shooting in southeast Michigan remaining four college students dead and wounded seven others ― some severely. The suspected shooter was billed with murder and terrorism this 7 days for equally the lives he took and the life he scarred his dad and mom were being also charged in link with the incident.

The incident brought on a wave of faculty closures across the condition of Michigan, as mom and dad and administrators concerned about copycat shooters.
But not only does the Massie family’s holiday getaway portrait lack style ― it also lacks originality.
