Rep. Lauren Boebert, R- Colo., slammed former Rep. Beto O'Rourke for trying to "legislate evil" with calls for gun control and discussed the importance of protecting the Second Amendment during the first episode of Jason Chaffetz's new podcast.

"Who do you think you are to think you could legislate evil and leave people like me defenseless, and disarm people like me?" Boebert said Monday during an appearance on "Jason In The House: The Jason Chaffetz Podcast."

Boebert criticized the former 2020 presidential candidate for failing to mention that the mass shootings he has cited as arguments for stricter gun laws, including at Aurora and Columbine, occurred at gun-free zones, which left people defenseless against the shooters.
