GOPs Right-Wing Launches 'A Gun Could Have Prevented the Colorado Tragedy' Campaign on Facebook

Hard to believe (or not) - but Facebook is being flooded with pictures in 'support of gun rights' in reaction to the tragedy in Colorado. This horrific campaign started before even the first funeral had taken place.

See the gallery of sickness that I pulled from my feed this morning here -> http://wp.me/p1asum-yk

Has anyone else seen any others?

Holmes opened fire in a dark, crowded theater where he launched tear gas before opening fire. Do those far right idiots really think someone can see in the dark well enough to aim a gun at a killer while they're choking on tear gas? Do those morons have any functioning neurons remaining?
