Thursday, September 10th, the Moms Demand Action organization, held a rally in Phoenix.  A little over 20 people showed up.  At least three people present were Second Amendment supporters.

Two of the Second Amendment supporters carried large signs that made the rally appear to be in support of the Second Amendment.
Dr. Peter Steinmetz was one of the Second Amendment supporters that was present.  He reports:
One of the leaders initially asked us “respectfully, to please go across the street and demonstrate there”. I noted that this appeared to be a public street and that we were there to support their overall message of reducing violent crime. We would remain where we were and continue to peacefully exercise our 1st amendment rights. She then gathered together the MDA folks and urged them not to interact with us.
The “rally” lasted about 30 minutes.   Robert Denny, a member of the Arizona Citizen Defense League, was there taking pictures.  He reports:

They hate it when their own tactics are used against them.

Heh.

A lot of blood will be on the hands of Moms Demand Action when a crazy Leftist comes to shoot up some kids in a Gun Free Zone.

One of the Delta State students said this in an interview:

“We put two and two together,” he said [when shots were heard]. The professor gave the students chairs to throw if the shooter came in, said King’s friend, Christopher Walker Todd.

The professor gave the students chairs to throw

So this is a step forward - at least this professor gets the idea of self defense, and doesn't urge them to cower under a desk.

Now all they need is more effective tools to defend themselves with (and I don't mean bigger chairs).
