Oh look, here are some perfectly reasonable Texas gun owners, who were terribly disappointed at not being invited out for mimosa brunch, waving their junk around in a mall parking lot just like the founding fathers used to do on their Saturday afternoons (before heading over to Hooters for tankards of ale and ye olde chicken winges served by busty wenches) over two hundred years ago :
On Saturday, nearly 40 armed men, women, and children waited outside a Dallas, Texas area restaurant to protest a membership meeting for the state chapter of Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America, a gun safety advocacy group formed in the aftermath of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting.
According to a spokeswoman for Moms Demand Action (MDA), the moms were inside the Blue Mesa Grill when members of Open Carry Texas (OCT) an open carry advocacy group pull[ed] up in the parking lot and start[ed] getting guns out of their trunks. The group then waited in the parking lot for the four MDA members to come out. The spokeswoman said that the restaurant manager did not want to call 911, for fear of inciting a riot and waited for the gun advocates to leave. The group moved to a nearby Hooters after approximately two hours.
Forty armed Texans versus four moms? It looks like some Texans have learned well the lessons of the Alamo.

Now let me see if I have this right. They are the ones with guns. They are also the ones hiding behind cars. Im having trouble with computation here. If they have the guns and this is simply a protest, why are the hiding like they are fixing to ambush somedamnthing? Are they buying into David Dewhursts idea that tampons are dangerous weapons liable to come at you suddenly?
Good Lord, its a bunch of women having a meeting. If that scares you, let me tell you about what happens at a Tupperware Party.

Something is very, very wrong with a person who thinks brandishing a weapon in this manner is appropriate.

Their message is clear: Gunz are good. Gunz make our country strong and the envy of the world.
