Eight days after the massacre of 20 first-graders at Sandy Hook Elementary, where each child was shot with a Bushmaster .223, The Nation's Gun Show, the biggest east of the Mississippi, opened.
"A line already snaked around the building shortly after the three-day event began at 3 p.m., and the parking lot was jammed" at the Dulles Expo Center in Chantilly, Va., wrote Justin Jouvenal of The Washington Post:
"With an AK-47 slung over one shoulder, Marco Hernandez offered one word when asked why he was in the overflow crowd at the gun show."
"Obama," he said. "I wouldn't be here if it weren't for the possible gun ban."
And this is the story across America since Sandy Hook.
The weapon most in demand at Chantilly?
The AR-15 black rifle, a version of which was used to slaughter the innocents in Newtown. At Chantilly, their price doubled in hours to $1,800. Gun stores have sold out their inventory.

Now....was it not determined that the AR15 was not actually used to kill anyone in Newtown?
ReplyDeleteIt was in the car when the cops found it, but then it evidently flew inside later............
DeleteAnd the media knowingly continues to report and spin the lie!.... First reports from leo's on scene was that two handguns were used in this slaughter. As you mentioned already Brock, the "Bushmaster" was found in the trunk.
ReplyDeleteAnd nary a word thereafter.
DeleteI fear that not one word of truth has been printed on the Newtown school shooting, and I've been very much afraid that it is also true of the Aurora theater shooting. Today's Denver post had yesterday's testimony of the first cop to arrive at the theater and begin hauling the wounded to hospitals. It is so hard to read that I think it probably is true.
ReplyDeleteJefferson believed that only a free press and free guns would save the Republic. I will gladly take arms and fight for both.
When the government takes over the Internet and newspapers we will have only our home computers and home printers to reestablish a free press. Well, I'm better equipped than Ben Franklin was to print and so are most of us. Let us print.
Excellent post, man. Print away!:)
