Gun Activists With Assault Rifles Harass Marine Veteran on Memorial Day

[quote][url=http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2014/05/guns-open-carry-texas-harassment-marine-veteran]On Memorial Day this week, a former Marine in Texas named James got a couple calls from friends who'd spotted an unusual gathering in downtown Fort Worth: Roughly a dozen people, mostly men, were hanging out in the middle of the city's cultural district, armed with semi-automatic rifles. James quickly knew what his friends were describing, having recently encountered an open-carry demonstration himself in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. An independent TV commercial producer who sometimes films live events, James headed downtown with his camera to get some footage. What he saw there struck him as especially provocative. Not only had the open-carry activists come to a typically relaxed, family friendly part of town, they were displaying intimidating firearms just three days after a major gun massacre in Southern California. What he didn't anticipate was that they would soon be pursuing him for several city blocks with cameras of their own, harassing him and later posting the footage online, where they would also level homophobic slurs and violent threats against him. Women who speak out have been the primary target for gun activists, as I detailed in a recent investigation. But now, on a day meant to honor fallen service members, a military vet would make the hit list.[/url][/quote] Read the rest of the story in the link. tl;dr: Marine gets insulted by gun owners for not sharing their views. Opinions on this?

  • >Bloomberg topkek. i'm not believing their shit because they claimed last time that they were threatened by open carry activists when they weren't really, with doctored photos from the side profile instead of the real ones from the front profile showing the people peacefully posing with a sign in the middle. in short, mother jones is a bloomberg shill(quite literally, since he owns mother jones), so is maig and VPC and Brady. they're all NYC mayor's shills run off of NYC government servers instead of private servers. it's all the agenda of a rich ass corrupt 27 billionaire mufugga who outspends the NRA every year and gets beat the f** out because the people don't want it.
