'Beware of taking in snakes': Twitter explodes after MTG's anti-immigrant take on France's riots

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) posted an anti-immigrant response to the riots in France in a tweet Monday – and Twitter exploded.

Greene’s post attributed the social unrest in France over the fatal police shooting of Nahel M., a 17-year-old boy of Algerian descent, to open borders and gun restrictions.

The far-right congresswoman from Georgia compared Muslim immigrants to reptiles in the incendiary post, which includes a video from Donald Trump’s Pickens County, South Carolina rally on Saturday, in which the former president repeats his often-used poem to disparage immigrants.

“Muslims migrated to France over the past two decades and France took them in while making it difficult for the people of France to own guns for self protection,” Greene tweeted to her 2.4 million followers.

“We need strict immigration laws and strong borders and always defend our great second amendment rights."

“Do not import criminals and religious radicals and strip your citizens of their God given right to defend themselves."

“Beware of taking in snakes!”

Some Twitter users weren’t having it.

“You should be expelled from the United States House of Representatives,” Twitter user @BryceAllers wrote in among nearly 2,000 replies to Greene’s post.

Wrote @SuerenaShane: “She is disgusting.”

But many seemed on-board with Greene’s view.

“I think that ship has sailed for our country!” Twitter user @gladysk06040782 wrote. “The only saving grace is DJT 2nd amendment.”

Twitter user @MATTZ1634 suggested Greene was uncovering a conspiracy behind the unrest in France.

“Seems the same globalist plans are long underway here as well,” they wrote.

Twitter user @MatthewJshow echoed those sentiments, writing: ”When will the GOP stand up to the installed Biden puppet regime?”

Newsweek reports that Sophie Louise Delquie, a Republican strategist from France, attributed the riots in France to "open border politicians" that she believes is "a wake up call to the United States."
