Just In: Felon Enraged Over Obama’s Gun Reforms Shoots Up Apartment Building

Whenever the right-wing media echo chamber and political hype machine gets hysterically overworked about an issue, violence tends to follow. Take for instance, when they all lost their collective minds over the fake and roundly debunked Planned Parenthood videos; arsons at health clinics and a mass shooting quickly followed.

So unfortunately it is no surprise that violence has followed the right-wing’s collective freak out over President Obama’s reasonable and much-needed expansion of background checks for firearm purchases. A still unnamed man in Redding, California living in an apartment complex began randomly shooting at people. Witnesses said that the man was ranting and screaming about President Obama’s gun actions, running inside and outside apartments, firing indiscriminately.

“We heard the five shots — everyone was screaming,” said resident David Rice. “He came out screaming ‘Obama! Obama! Obama!’ (Police) told him to come out with (his) hands up, and he kept telling them ‘No, no, no.’”

...

As if the racial disparities in police response couldn’t be any clearer in this nation, law enforcement responders fired non-lethal beanbags at an active white shooter, while twelve-year-old Tamir Rice was instantly gunned down. They then allowed this man to enter and exit his apartment, which had a letter from the NRA taped to the window, ten times with his weapon drawn before an officer finally shot him dead.

7. One would think so

But the pro gun faction would never see that and instead blame POTUS for tipping the guy over the edge.

2. What was Wayne Lapierre doing there?

I thought he would be in his bunker at the NRA headquarters (a gun free zone for visitors by the way).

the idea that maybe all guns should be confiscated.
