I can tell you now that member of this group approached Sa a while back and asked him if he wanted it. He told him in no uncertain terms that he didn't want it, as he had no time for this group.
They approached his wife earlier today, at a vulnerable time, unbeknownst to myself and got her permission to do it not knowing what she was giving permission to.
The first attempt caught us on the hop as we weren't expecting it and it was embarrassing to watch as the weapon repeatedly jammed.
As a close friend of the Gallagher family I can say that they are angry that this happened and that it was done without their permission.
The daughter of Sa Gallagher has just contacted me to ask that the video is taken down and that it is such an embarrassment to her daddy.
This family are grieving for their father and their brother, a Republican held in the highest regard by all Republicans as seen by the numbers who attended his wake.
The last thing they need is this.
