If Arming More People Is A Good Deterrent To Gun Violence, Why Was There A Shoot Out In Texas?


At least two students were shot at Lone Star College in Texas on Tuesday, a school official said.
Two armed students opened fire (at each other?) CBS affiliate KHOU Houston reports of witnesses saying that two men were arguing when one of them took out a gun and fired.
Both were armed and exercising their 2nd amendment rights. They were defending themselves from each other.
Two students were shot in the crossfire. Two INNOCENT students were shot in the crossfire!
Maybe the pro gun conservative answer is that those two innocent students should have been packing weapons to defend themselves from the two other shooters who were defending themselves from each other.
Maybe the pro gun conservative answer is to have all students just shoot each other in self defense. MORE GUNS! YEAH!

What Makes Conservatives Think That Their Campaign Of Media Slander Against Ows Is Working?


FACT: The tactics being used by Conservative organizations to discredit the OWS movement through the creation of incidents are essentially identical to the tactics used by police against squatter camps in the novel The Grapes of Wrath.
FACT: Conservative muckracker James O’Keefe was in the Zucotti Park area during the time of the OWS protest. There is video of him in the area and that video was broadcast on Rachel Maddow’s program.
FACT: The photo which appeared in multiple Rupert Murdoch (FOX News) owned outlets proclaimed to be a photo of an OWS protester defecating on a police car was actually taken in the Park Slope section of Brooklyn NY and is actually just a picture of a random homeless person – not someone who is affiliated in any way with the OWS movement.
FACT: In every single incident of violence or looting related to the OWS movement there are multiple eyewitness accounts of the persons who committed the violent acts being strangers to protesters, having a hostile attitude towards the other protesters, and disappearing from the protest area immediately following the acts of violence.
FACT: Conservative media outlets have hyped the negative stories relentlessly and have completely ignored all evidence which suggest that these incidents may be part of a concerted effort by Conservative Republicans to discredit the OWS movement.
