5. Everything's a f*cking "O.K. Corral" with these people!

David Pakman interviews a "pro-guns in public places" supporter:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/101786988 He tells that the Oregon mall shooting was stopped by someone with a "illegal" gun (he was packing even though the mall had a "no guns" policy--a "minor infraction" as he puts it). When he pulls his gun, the shooter sees it and kills himself. Oh yeah? So these monsters will kill themselves when they see someone pull a gun on them? With that logic, let's all carry plastic "toy guns" that look real. They are harmless but when pulled on someone shooting with a real gun, that shooter will kill themself. Yeah, that'll work!

could have fit the mold of one of today's right-wing gun nuts. Plus, he was always putting down women as inferior human beings. One day, during the following summer break, the local paper's headlines featured a story about a man who had shot his wife, four children, and himself. Guess who?
I would have been SO grateful to have this lunatic carry a concealed gun to school.  |

Also, it's important to note that the Governor's mansion burned down on his watch (with State Trooper security camped out on the premises).
