Pro-Gun Rallies Held in DC, Virginia

As the ceremony was held, hundreds of people gathered in Washington, DC for a pro-firearm rally on Capitol Hill. Speakers urged the crowd to support lawmakers who oppose gun control. The right-wing Chicago radio host Erich Muller was among those to attend.

Erich Muller: “My message to the federal government is obey the laws. We have a right to have guns. I live in the city of Chicago. It is a bloodbath, and I don’t have a right to protect my family. The average response time, 911 call, is fifteen minutes. Fifteen minutes—I don’t have that kind of time. I need a gun to protect myself. It’s my right as an American.”

Another pro-gun rally was also held nearby in Virginia, where attendees openly carried guns on their hips and over their shoulders. It was the first armed rally in a national park since President Obama signed a law authorizing weapons in national parks last year.

Redneck Kills 8 in Virginia

So if I understand this correctly - When an American Muslim working for an entity designed specifically to murder large groups of people (a.k.a. the military) goes berserk and offs a bunch of other people trained in the art of murdering large groups of people (a.k.a. soldiers), it's terrorism.

But if an American Christian (presumably, since it's the de facto religion of this dying empire) does something similar, it's what? just another rampage by an alienated American male?

Oh yeah, add rural areas to the long list of places to avoid due to crazy-ass Americans totting automatic weapons.

APPOMATTOX, Va. – A man suspected of killing eight people before disappearing into dense Virginia woods surrendered at sunrise Wednesday, and bomb teams searched a house they said he may have rigged with explosives.
