1. I Bet the Right Wing Media is Happy... their misinformation campaign seems to work
on the sickest and dumbest part of this country.

2. A member of Cheney's hit squad perhaps.

3. A law abiding gun owner. Until he wasn't. That's the way it works.
Which is why availability of guns in the first place is THE problem.

4. Guns don't kill people. Attitudes and beliefs cultivated by hate-spewing, racist, illogical,
lying, hypocritical RW leaders like Rush Bimbaugh do.

5. Gun worship crosses party lines. Reaching for a gun to solve a problem is a human frailty.

8. Yes, they sure do. But the RW scream machine needs to be repeatedly called out as well.

6. I'm sure Hannity and Rush will say how sad it is they detained an
American Patriot. :eyes:
