I know several CHL holders in local Republican and Tea Party circles.
Like I said, maybe it's just me.
It’s not just you.
Ditto that...especially here in Texas!
I agree,
This is a war of marketing and the left is good at this game. They have, in the minds of most, successfully spun this shooter, the Discover channel shooter, and the IRS plane bomber as all ‘right wingers’ even though every single one of them were overt leftists.
It is just like how they have painted the ‘right’ as racists even though their side is the one with the history of racism.
We need to realize how they play this game and it is important piece of the bigger puzzle, almost as important as the principles.
It is a learning moment for us as in all of these cases. Learn how the left reacts. See how they control the news cycle. See how they frame the definitions and events. We don’t need to compromise our principles to fight on that battle ground as well.
Democrat or Republican, here in IN the thumbstraps going off would have sounded like popcorn.
The dust hasn’t even settled and the spin meisters are attempting to spin a story they don’t understand .......... ridiculous.
I have attended five Tea Party events; first one, concealed carry, the rest open carry.
Always got a positive response, and usually an admission of carrying themselves.
I don’t know if no one else would have been wounded, but I can guaran-damn-tee you the perp wouldn’t have survived.
Hugely important point: the shooter loves both International Socialism and National Socialism -- but who is the mainstream media (bless their lying hearts) going to blame: Conservatives.
Also note: the US Army has now reported that shooter was rejected for military service in 2008.
That stopped the original claims that this fellow was a veteran of Afghanistan!
Not just you. Very bad taste.
LOL...
It’s not just you. This kind of crap makes us all look bad. Would not be surprised if it the thread shows up on some other site.
Not just you.
The Kos Kiddies were going on about how the new AZ law allowing no-permit concealed carry “exacerbated” this situation.
Right. Like this numb-nut wouldn’t have shot anyone if he’d been required to have a permit. /s
They are so dumb. They’re really dumb. And you can run and tell that, homeboy.

One death --- gunMEN?
Thank you for being a voice of reason in the face of such a tragedy.
