Re: WTF, JUST HAPPENED!!!
Yes, who ever made the sign was retarded and it was counter-productive in promoting gun rights, but...
They should forget about being hung on the tree of liberty.
Those sensitive assholes should be doused in Preparation-H instead.

That kind of thing does not help our cause. It was a stupid thing to do.

They actually took it as a terrorist threat. Several of them used the word lynching. you gotta be kidding me. They actually want a full investigation on the person or persons who made up this flyer.
No kidding? What else would we expect? Of course he'll milk it for all it's worth. We deserve the media mileage he gets from that because it was a very stupid thing to do.
Re: WTF, JUST HAPPENED!!!
Here is a funny thought. How do they know the authors were not of the same ethnicity. I mean, I'm a gun owner and a Hispanic (as are my hunting buddies). We're not all anglo-saxons.

Re: WTF, JUST HAPPENED!!!
First thing I would do would be damage control. I would write a couple of op-ed pieces for the paper. I would then write this Rep Cruz, or the leader of the black caucus, or whoever, and make it very clear that this person or these individuals acted on their own behalf and do not speak for the rest of the law-abiding gun owners.
The next thing is I would raise holy hell to all the media outlets about the biased coverage given this. Now, for my next sentence, let the flames begin. If it was a gathering of African Americans for any reason, they would have received 2 minutes on the news if they had just planted a flower in the middle of a downtown park where no one would ever see it. They would be working to improve the environment. Where as gun owners are merely causing violent crime by owning a gun that has never been fired at anything but tin cans and paper.
Re: WTF, JUST HAPPENED!!!
Another funny thing I notice. Maybe it was the angle of the camera, but I could only see three people in the room. Two were asking the questions. What was that all about?
Re: WTF, JUST HAPPENED!!!
We were surprised when we saw it and someone commented "are they with us?"
We said then that all the news would talk about was that sign. It was total stupid. It will give the anti's fuel to last for months.
We spend so much time and effort to convince people that we are normal, healthy, peaceful and safe and those nuts turn us back into the inbred hicks they think we are.
Re: WTF, JUST HAPPENED!!!
Those JACKASSES with the Banner
Now the Black Caucus wants a Criminal Investigation into those responsible for making and holding up the Banner.
That was a Damn Foolish Act on their part!

I called WGAL news TV and said that we could not place those people with any of our groups and believe them to be Anti-Gun plants.
They said they can only report on what they saw.

Its neither beneath the liberals, nor unheard of, to plant this kind of thing in such an environment solely to derail the meeting and garner support and sympathy.
Not saying that's what happened...but...
Re: WTF, JUST HAPPENED!!!
So is there going to be a criminal investigation into every rap star who writes and sings songs about killing cops??? Killing other people?????
