Ferret-faced journalists are hoping casual readers will understand “Texas” as the perpetrator, not just the locale.

Their editors have to squeeze musk glands located at the base of their tails & express the fluid contained therein once every two weeks or they really stink up the newsroom.

Good. That means that we have their attention, and the message to the muslim community is that we won’t tolerate their jihadi BS.

In January 17,2015, and the same public school center, there was a “Stand with the Prophet” rally by Muslims, a pro-Shariah law event, by supporters Al-Qaida and Isis organized by one of the terrorists implicate in the bombing of the garage of the NY World Trade Center in 2003. I wonder if those who try to blame the organizers of the “First Annual Muhammad Art Exhibit and Contest,” for the Muslim terrorist attack would have justified if some patriotic American had irrupted in Muslim rally on January 2015 and made a massacre of Islamic terrorists.

You already know the answer.

I’m sure they got those SEMI - Auto AK’s in the Parking Lot of a Gun Show too.

If you need a laugh, correct a Liberal spouting the term Automatic Weapon. I did. I said, do you mean Select Fire Weapon? The guy didn’t have a clue what I was talking about.

Of course not, they would have used that type of an event to vilify those extremist “right wingers”.

This should be a rule of thumb test for reporters.

They are only rattled because two of their own got toasted.

In Texas, I believe the proper terminology is, "Kaboomified."
"Toasted," requires an alcoholic beverage.

“Rattles” the Muslim community? Maybe the writer meant “Electrifies?”

“I might get in trouble if I shot someone.”

It's best not to answer those direct questions directly. Especially when people push you for an answer. After all you don't want some dumb prosecutor making cause célèbre out of you simply because you honestly said "yes, I'll shoot to kill".

If you want to conclude that means he's a coward that's your opinion. But he may be wondering what might be made of his remarks. At least he's got it, so you'll find out what he's really made of should the time come, god forbid. I suspect if he were truly a committed liberal he wouldn't be carrying.

Well, this is the liberal take of the U.K. Guardian. Our forefathers kicked the Continental Army’s butts and our military saved the Brits bacon in two World Wars, but these arrogant twerps still presume to tell us how we should defend ourselves. I hope the Muslim communities get rattled enough to go back where they came from.

Donald Trump said this morning that Pamela Geller was “taunting” the Muslims and she shouldn’t have done that

I saw his interview this morning & I couldn't believe my ears. He went down several (more) notches in my book. I hope he stays out of the Presidential race - the water is already mucked up enough.

“But he may be wondering what might be made of his remarks.”

This was in my house with just the three of us there. He meant what he said.

-— The media neither knows nor cares what the difference is between auto and semi -—

You should have seen the look on my relatives’ faces when I matter-of-factly mentioned that machine guns have been outlawed since the 1930s. Their jaws dropped and they stopped talking.
