Oh, Do Let's Just All Shoot Each Other Over Every Little Thing, Shall We?
by Abby Zimet
Sorry: It's one of those Idiots With Guns days. Raul Rodriguez, a retired firefighter in Texas, is on trial for killing elementary school teacher Kelly Danaher and wounding two others after he confronted them about their party's loud music. Rodriquez claims he was just standing my ground - albeit on their property, after he baited and threatened them. Incredibly, he videotaped the entire incident; even more incredibly, he seems to think the chilling evidence will help his case. Scary in countless ways.
Im telling you, Im telling you, stop, I said stop right now or I will shoot you!"

Correct. They're just defending his "right" to wave his gun around because he doesn't like something

Who here has defended his "right" to wave his gun around because he doesn't like something?

I wish someone would tell millions who tuck one or two guns in their pants before venturing out.

Don' think so. Otherwise they'd leave the damn things at home. Majority have issues.
