A socialist hates guns... but hates Freedom more.

Oh look, they brought their toys with them!

Looks like two groups of faggots waving their dicks in the wind. They'll go running back to Mommy's basement at the sound of the first gunshot. Left and right wing idiots are cut from the same cloth. When you have to shoot, shoot...don't talk!

Media biased much??? First line of the article "A far right rally..."

You never see it the other way around "Lefty lunatics counter protest Constitutional Rights..."

 

[greencobra]

whatever the headline, this stuff isn't good for anyone.

NAZI's were leftists, I wish the Communist Free Press would read a history book... The far right in Europe is very different from the far right in the US. In fact the extreme left and right in Europe are pretty much the same thing...

Expecting objectivity in journalism today is unrealistic

Nailed it!

Not simply leftists, NAZIs were Socialists.

NAZI

noun, plural Na·zis.

1. a member of the National Socialist German Workers' Party, which controlled Germany from 1933 to 1945 under Adolf Hitler and advocated totalitarian government...

Yes, and socialists are leftists, what is the point you were making?

Woah. Did I read this right?

The left-wing groups Organized Workers for Labor Solidarity, Radical Women and the Freedom Socialist Party were accompanied by local gun club chapters, including the Puget Sound John Brown Gun Club.

Gun clubs joining with socialists to counter-protest a gun control bill? What the everloving f*** is going on in Washington? What the hell kind of FUDDs have taken over those gun clubs? Sounds like a full on moonbat invasion.

The John Brown Gun Club is a semi-well-known far-left group. They used to be called Redneck Revolt. From Wikipedia:
"Redneck Revolt is an anti-capitalist, anti-racist and anti-fascist group, and uses direct action tactics. Redneck Revolt supports the rights of Muslims, immigrants and LGBT people and is opposed to economic inequality. Members also support the Black Lives Matter movement. The group's website includes statements in opposition to capitalism, the nation state, white supremacy and "the wars of the rich", and advocates a "right of militant resistance""

Did not know who John Stark was so I looked up his name.

Live Free or Die: The Story of General John Stark

"General John Stark played a tremendous role in winning America’s independence, yet he is virtually unknown today. In 1809, though the two men had never met, President James Madison wrote to Stark in recognition of “the part you bore as a hero and a patriot in establishing the independence of our country.”1 More than a quarter century after the Revolutionary War, it was still common knowledge that Stark, as Madison put it, was “a champion in so glorious a cause.” Likewise, President Thomas Jefferson had written to Stark, “as a stranger who knows you only by the services you have rendered,” to say, “your memory will be cherished by those who come after you.”2"

Stark's NH regiment held the northern flank along the fence at the battle of Bunker Hill. That was about all I knew about him until I googled as well.

Gun-Control Initiative Brings Protesters on Both Sides to Seattle

The gun-control initiative would boost the age for the purchase of semi-automatic rifles from 18 to 21 and would expand the background checks for those purchases. The measure would also require people to complete a firearm safety training course and create standards for safely storing firearms.

A judge on Friday, however, threw out 300,000 signatures needed to put the initiative on the November ballot, saying the petition’s format did not follow election law. The Alliance for Gun Responsibility, the group behind the initiative, has filed a notice of appeal with the Washington Supreme Court.
