Like the GOP candidate who used his first amendment rights to state he believes that he can take others right to live?

Again with the one represents the whole meme...

You can see the difference between Jihad extremists and Muslims, yet have no problem acting as if a single voice represents all of Christianity.

Are you an angry atheist? Do you just hate Christians, but Muslims and Hindus are okay? What about Jews?

I mean this selective tripe is ridiculous.

What is there not to agree with on this point ECW?

Did you see the huge Moms Demand Action anti-gun rally on the news yesterday? No? Maybe it’s because a handful of random people barely qualifies as a get-together, let alone a protest.
That's some good news. At least in Dallas, there are only a few intellectually challenged, emotionally driven, irrational nitwits. I bet they could scrounge up some more in San Francisco.

This part slayed me:

Women demand Target prohibit the open carry of guns in stores at shareholder meeting | Dallas Morning News

Quote:
The women at the gathering said they’re not shopping at Target until it happens.

“I’m a Texas mom,” Lundy said. “...This skirt I put on this morning is actually from Target. But I won’t be going there for a while.”
I'm still going to use their stuff, but I'm not going there until I've made my point.

F-en hypocrite.

To the predictable: "But, like, zOMG, like, she already bought it, like, why wouldn't she wear it?"

Because if you really are that passionate about your cause, you don't parade around in attire from the very place you're protesting.

You are mistaken. The Dallas Morning News did not call it massive.

I did not say it was massive, I said it was reported by the Dallas morning news.

umm, If you read the non crazy article in the Dallas paper, they mention that the group was able to get over 200,000 signatures to support their cause, I'd call that a "total failure"

Then why laugh at women exercising that right? Its not as if they were saying for weeks they would have thousands or millions like several TP movements in the past months and then showed up with a handful.
