The photo appeared to attract significant criticism on social media.
Massie's similar photograph, posted to Twitter on December 4, had depicted the congressman with his entire family, all holding similar-style long guns. The tweet also asked Santa to"please bring ammo."
Boebert and Massie are both known for their strong pro-gun stances, as well as their strong support of the Second Amendment. Additionally, Boebert owns a pro-gun restaurant in Rifle, Colorado. Known as Shooters Grill, the eatery is run by open-carrying staff and describes itself as"armed and ready to feed you."
MediasTouch, a liberal SuperPAC, tweeted that it would"not be posting the deranged photo of Lauren Boebert and her young children holding weapons of war."
