Pro-Gun Activists Fantasize About Assassinating President Obama in Dallas

http://csgv.org/blog/2013/pro-gun-activists-muse-assassinating-president-obama-dallas/

"The bedrock belief of the modern pro-gun movement is insurrectionism—the perverted notion that the Second Amendment protects an individual right to shoot and kill elected officials, law enforcement officers, and military service members when one personally senses “tyranny.” And pro-gun activists are never shy about indicating they are prepared to use violence to get their way if the policy and lawmaking process moves in a direction they don’t like."

"The Facebook page Gun Rights Across America Texas contained some of the most vivid fantasies. Gun Rights Across America (GRAA), of course, are the folks who brought us the “Guns Next Door” event on October 19, 2013. The event encouraged gun owners to visibly arm themselves and “pass out candy or lemonade to the kids riding their bikes, and playing in the neighborhoods.”

Their plans for President Obama were equally unsettling. Making reference to an Overpasses for Obama’s Impeachment protest planned in conjunction with the President’s visit (the founder of Overpasses is James Neighbors), a thread at the page called for supporters to give President Obama a “Texas size welcome” when he arrived in Dallas.

Commenters on the thread made it clear what they envisioned.

“Take him via Dealey Plaza,” suggested Rosemary Barajas Carr of Daingerfield, Texas, referring to the site at which President John F. Kennedy was assassinated on November 22, 1963."

“Can he have a parade just like jfk?” asked pro-gun activist Jennifer Prater

“Drive him past the old book depository,” said Derek G. Roesler of The Woodlands, Texas.

“I wonder if he will get the same Texas welcome as JFK..,” speculated Blake Meche of Corpus Christi, Texas.

“Eggs anyone or better yet bacon since he’s Muslim,” said pro-gunner Matthew Boles.

These are the real faces of the "pro-gun" movement, and they are armed and dangerous thanks to the bought-and-paid-for corrupt politicians who are in the pockets of the ALEC/Koch Brothers funded NRA.

Makes you proud to be an American -- doesn't it?

1. That's one reason I believe strongly that guns need to be restricted. The majority folks attracted

to these weapons are callous people who will use guns to intimidate and advance their political ideology.

Further, many preppers, compound dwellers, bigoted militia members, paranoid folks, etc., are training/preparing to shoot folks who might need help after a natural disaster.

Before being banned from the Gungeon, there was a long thread there where gun fanciers discussed their go to weapons to handle folks fleeing a hurricane as Hurricane Irene (maybe it was Sandy) approached. It was a sobering display of gun fanciers' mentality.

2. It's amazing that

TV shows like "Doomsday Preppers" and their ilk are so popular. The NRA inspired gun culture in this country is getting out of hand.

3. One day, we are going to have a natural disaster or economic panic. We'll find out just how

callous, immoral, and quick to shoot desperate people many of these gun fanciers are.

Will be much like the police on the bridge "protecting" Gretna by turning back desperate people trying to escape New Orleans in aftermath of Katrina.

4. Given the mindset I see

on the Internet at least, I have no doubt that some gun nuts are looking forward to exercising their "Second Amendment rights" to kill another human being -- the ultimate prey.

5. Remember a couple in my church during the Y2K hysteria at their home prepping and they bought two

gun safes and offered to give me food and water at their house when 'it' happened but the man said they'd shoot anyone else.

Needless to say, I no longer visited after that but it wasn't just paranoia that drove me off, as it was said in a laughing manner.

There's a lot more that followed, but it was and still is, typical RWNJ behavior. It's mainstream among RWers now. I no longer trust any of them about anything, period.

6. Truthfully, I've decided that if we have say a nuclear disaster, I'm going to go outside and soak

up the rays and die as quickly as possible (might jump off rim of Grand Canyon to speed things up).

I am not going to sleep with one eye open so I can shoot my neighbors to survive, no matter how despicable, callous and right/white wing they are.

Let's hope it doesn't come to that, but letting them arm up sure ain't going to impede it.
