Media's Latest Hoax/Stupidity: Guy Who Demands an Answer and, After Waiting for an Answer for Five Seconds, Receives an Answer, was Monstrously "Heckled" by Cruel Right-Wingers
The money shot of the video is at 15:20, when the guy -- a grieving parent of a son murdered at Newtown -- demands to know what possible reason anyone could offer that AR-15s should be legal.
At first you might think this is a rhetorical question; the audience in fact takes it as rhetorical, and doesn't answer. Then he scans around the room, looking for someone to answer, and, as everyone's silent, concludes, as he'd intended, that no one has a good answer. At that point, people realize that their respectful silence is being taken for assent, and they begin chiming in "The second amendment." The media's claim? he was callously "heckled" and interrupted while speaking. Oh, and from plonked, even more proof of Obama's passion for Doing Skeet.

Look like Obama's celebratory skyward gunfire after he was found to have won election.
Also, can a reasonable legal case be brought against MSNBC for editing this tape to make it look like people yelled out rather than answered a question? In this case, who would be the legally wronged party in a court of law?

9-11-01 - we dare not profile muslims.
Newtown 2012 - we can profile millions of NRA members.

But, you see, laws against mere murder or theft or carrying a weapon on a school campus have nothing to do with whether someone could have the gun in the first place. If his mom hadn't had those guns, he wouldn't have broken all those other laws!

After getting caught for the 5th time making a deceptive audio/video edit to drive a narrative, from now on let's call this NBC outfit what it is. It is not 'News'. It is propaganda.
So from now on, on the internet and on Twitter and other social media, let's all call it either NBC "News" or NBC Propaganda.
Fox News got caught making this kinda deceptive edit to audio/video just ONCE, there would be 24/7 coverage in the MSM, calls for Congressional hearings, FCC inquiries into revoking licencing, etc.
But "NBC Propaganda" can get caught FIVE TIMES IN ONE YEAR doing this shit = *crickets*
Enough is enough. No Conservative blog or Republican speaker should *ever* refer to this contemptible propaganda outfit as merely 'NBC News'.
It's NBC "News" or NBC Propaganda. Let's stop giving them any legitimacy whatsoever.

One of the first rules of hunting is "watch your field of fire."
One of the other rules of hunting is "Make sure the other hunters know where you are."

Quail hunting be's that way. Right off the bat you start out with most shots being made at or near ground level vs sky for dove and duck.
Then if you are with someone both have to keep constant watch. Combine that with the way quail explode out of a fence row causing to to shit your pants it is easy to screw up.

Also, how the fuck is this even related to your son's murder, how would AR-15s being illegal have saved him.

I am sorry for his loss, and he is certainly welcome to testify. Equally compelling testimony could easily be found, if one were to look, of people who used such weapons to defend their property, their families, and themselves.
At the end of the day, you could tell me that by removing these type of weapons would cut crime in half. It wouldn't matter. It is a God-given right. It existed prior to the United States. It existed prior to Newton, and it cannot be infringed.

"Moe's Kosher in Calcutta, bro. World's best bacon cheeseburger. Had two a day every day I was there...y'know, stationed there...with MI5. This was back around dubya-dubya-eye-eye, Cripps mission. Yeah. You can look it up. 'Consulting' gig for me though, unofficial. Right, I didn't make the Wikipedia page. Wink wink, blam blam! But fuck, bro, that burger. I can still taste it. Dill relish, spoon of dijon--heavenly. It'd make you forget there was open sewer running under the tables. Yeah dude, shit. Clogged with white sporks. White sporks and black hair and liquid shit, bro, all under your dinner. The weird thing was, there was a kid who'd fish your spork out from under you after you were done with it--you had to drop the spork--it was how you showed you weren't a tourist--and the kid, he was freaked out if you tried to be all American about it and just hand it to him, y'know? If you didn't drop it in the sewage first. Some caste thing, I dunno. He'd collect the sporks and sell them to the mulagatanni joint downhill. Haha yeah, don't go there! Yeah so the kid--seriously now--I found this out after I got sent to China to get the civil war there going--it's incredibly touching--this poor kid was saving up his spork money to buy a guitar, right? He told me that. But get this. It turns out he only wanted a guitar so he could serenade me with American tunes! Yeah, he thought I was prince. Y'know? Prince America. And I fuckin' was, man. I was.

I just watched the whole thing...there was no heckling.
Someone in the back, asked a question...and were shouted down.
What struck me, was that this guy Heslin went on and on about 'assault weapons'...and not about the head case who killed his son.
How about we make it easier for parents of dangerous, mentally ill teens, to put those teens away...where they won't be a danger to others?

But if he is going to offer himself up (unwittingly or not) to be used as a tool to chip away at my ability to defend hearth and home, I'm simply not going to lay back and let it happen unchallenged.
Would it make any difference if his little boy had died of a shotgun blast? A claw hammer? A machete blade? An ANFO bomb? A car?

They don't even need to be put away, they require treatment in the form of medications. There's a huge difference in the thinking and behavior of a mentally ill person who is under medical care compared to those left untreated.

Because historically that kind of behavior presages worse.

The more I think about the 2nd Amendment, the wiser and more humble I think the Founders were. To leave (and not just to leave, but to recognize the right to them) the implement's of government's potential destruction in the hands of the people really marks a dividing line in world history. Anyone who wants the mass of humanity to return to a world in which that right is not recognized is historically illiterate or too stupid to be listened to.

In America everything is legal, until is made illegal.
Defense against crime is legal in America, and the people of Newtown chose to make certain kinds of defense illegal in their schools.
For everything made illegal there is an explicit threat that the common man will be forced to submit by any means the government feels necessary, up to and including lethal force. So the law abiding people of Newtown complied and did not provide for their own or the children's defense in their schools.
As for the mass murder, the criminal is alone to blame for the crimes committed, yet some would argue that something about society contributed to it.
A liberal think tank found that there is essentially no record of a mass murderer being stopped by a armed private citizen, missing from the report is an elementary observation that no shootings occurred in the pressence of an armed private citizen escalated to a mass shooting. So, the people of Newtown should be blameless in disarming themselves or culpable?
So, why would anyone NEED a weapon like this?
That is not the question.
The question is why should we allow an authoritarian thug dictate under the threat of execution by cop that anybody else comply with their fail laws, and do so so solely because they did fail?

"Why would anyone NEED a weapon like this"
Oh that's easy! Because there are crazy persons who want to illegally take them from me. And the reasoning behind this is quite simple, too: those types of people who want to restrict our natural rights are the most dangerous types of tyrants of all. To wit:
"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."
As long as there are those who thirst after power over others, the sad fact is that efficient means to protect ourselves must be available. The fact that the left can't seem to take a powder without a power-grab is rather proving that point.
