Spitting, Stalking, Rape Threats: How Gun Extremists Target Women
I'm sure this is about to be a completely unbiased article.
A tall, thin man standing nearby stared at Longdon, then back at the screen. Then he walked up to Longdon and spat in her face. No one else blinked.
Longdon was shocked and embarrassed, she told me, but she didn't falter. "Wow, aren't you a big man," she said as he turned and walked away. Instead of calling for security, she wheeled herself to a restroom to clean herself off. She was tired—she lives with constant physical pain—and didn’t want to miss her flight.
Meh. People sometimes spit when in the presence of someone that discusses them. Sometimes you see it in movies where the hero couragesly does it when threatened against some real bad guy, but these are "gun extremests" so what they did was in fact cowardly by trying to make themselves "big men".
What happened to Longdon in Indianapolis is part of a disturbing pattern. Ever since the Sandy Hook massacre, a small but vocal faction of the gun rights movement has been targeting women who speak up on the issue—whether to propose tighter regulations, educate about the dangers to children, or simply to sell guns with innovative security features.
Why won't these gun extremists understand that they are just trying to do things like sell guns with innovative secureity features and give a simple educatation to our children? It's not like any of these things they are trying to do violates our Second Amendment rights? Think of the children.
They shouted about constitutional rights and tyranny, and called people arriving to trade in their guns "sellouts."
The horror!
After a fundraiser one night during the program, Longdon returned home around 10 p.m., parked her ramp-equipped van and began unloading herself. As she wheeled up to her house, a man stepped out of the shadows. He was dressed in black and had a rifle, "like something out of a commando movie," Longdon told me. He took aim at her and pulled the trigger. Longdon was hit with a stream of water. "Don't you wish you had a gun now, bitch?" he scoffed before taking off.
Not cool, but it does prove a point. Also wouldn't of shed a tear if she was packing and shot him.
The sight of groups of (mostly) men carrying semi-automatic rifles along a busy road or inside the local Jack in the Box has prompted bystanders to call police.
All these evil evil men. Grrrr.
They use their guns because that's all they have. If you know what I mean."
Oh good, another penis size reference. I forgot that's why we carry firearms.
Last October, hundreds of armed people gathered for a rally at the Alamo in San Antonio, where Open Carry Texas had invited Alex Jones,
I'm sure he was super curtious and non-provocative.
Provocative tactics in the name of the Second Amendment are by no means confined to Texas. Recently, public displays of guns have caused alarm in Wisconsin, and gun rights activists have menaced a businesswoman in California and a gun dealer in Maryland for trying to sell firearms equipped with high-tech safety features.
Can't understand why anyone would be angry at someone working to bring in more anti-second amendment laws.
Last Thursday, a firearms instructor in Florida posted a video on the Facebook page of Moms Demand Action, in which he filmed himself at a gun range blasting a paper target bearing the Moms logo. "Happy Mother's Day," he says with a grin, displaying the cluster of bullet holes.
People often destroy the symbols of their enemies, take flag burning or effigies for example. But he used a ggggun!
Shannon Watts, the founder of Moms Demand Action, has faced a continuous barrage. "For me, the question is always, 'Why does this person want to kill or rape or silence me?'" she says. "I think the answer is that this issue touches a cultural nerve based on gender, geography, and other politics. There are pundits who make a good deal of money encouraging this type of anger."

The reality is that a majority of NRA members and gun owners support the reforms we're fighting for."
No, no they don't
Am I saying that there are not people who are pretty nasty people who would serve a lot more by not talking? No. What I am saying is that most of the examples given here are really not bad at all. We certainly seem to treat the people who would like to see our constitution shredded a lot better than we did when it was first drafted up. I wonder what people would think if we were to douse one of their leaders with oil, cover in feathers, and gave them the wooden horse treament. There would probably be calls from our own side calling for their heads.
