you guys really should be proud of yourselves to take the view that the staged pic is the one that reflects reality and the candid shot is a lie. That’s really a bold leap there.

No matter what pose or formation those 40 people were in that’s an intimidating and unexcusable act.

And then they are clever enough for some folks to feel sorry for the folks with the guns!

Frankly, I’m embarrassed for responsible gun owners everywhere and do not have a lot of respect for the judgement of those who cannot empathize with the 4 UNARMED women.

Just how it is.

So what did they look like for the rest of the time they stood there?

Rallying in a parking lot with enough firepower to defend the town from zombies is the issue. Wouldn’t their presence and appearance trigger the stand your ground law? Wouldn’t it be ok to get them before they get you?

I found the first picture disturbing. Most likely it was the second that offended you.

It’s obvious that they both resonated with you and you aligned yourself with the deceit. Amazing how willing you are to dismiss the facts.

As far as the thinkprogress article goes let me quote Alcaray

“Lying is usually sufficient to disqualify you from being a source”

I hope they have the rear covered, with clear fields of fire along the sides. And then, after that, the armed people spend a fortune to have us feel sorry for them. Love the American flag – that’s not my America.

I’ll repeat. “About” 40 armed people waiting outside a restaurant for 4 unarmed women. And those 40 people want us to feel sorry for them.

And, frankly, it worked. Several people on this site seem to think they were mischaracterized and abused. There really are people who will believe anything consistent their pre-adololescent world-views.

I still think they should have had their picture taken elsewhere. The proximity to the Mutha’s group can’t be ignored.

Are there actually any laws at all regarding armed knut-jobs? If so, the issue would have to be determining the infliction of knut-jobery.

As for disarming potential killers — royal knut-jobs — of any and all potential weapons, including automobiles, aircraft, most tools and kitchen utensils, extension cords, hefty knick-knacks, belts, scarves…

…Kinda hard to stop a determined knut-job…

The mothers group and the liberal media twisted the story. The gun owners had the legal right to display their weapons and the picture was taken out of context. This utter bullshit will cause gun rights owners to fight back even more. These actions make Fox News look legit.

That said, brandishing is not right. They should have had signs.

they should have been run in, or run off.

I doubt they are insane, dumb, maybe, anyone that rallies in a parking lot usually is.
