Phrase of the Day: HE DID EVERYTHING "RIGHT"


ANOTHER CHURCH SHOOTING
ANOTHER MASSACRE

THE DEADLIEST CHURCH SHOOTING IN THE U.S.
THE DEADLIEST MASSACRE IN TEXAS

26 PEOPLE KILLED
20 INJURED

INCLUDING ...

JUST OVER HALF OF THE DEAD WERE CHILDREN
8 KILLED WERE FROM THE SAME FAMILY
7% OF THE CITY'S POPULATION KILLED AND INJURED
AGES OF THOSE KILLED ARE BETWEEN 1½ AND 77
(A YOUNG CHILD WHO, AT THIS POSTING, 
IS STILL ALIVE, WAS SHOT FIVE TIMES)

BUT THE TERRORIST DID EVERYTHING "RIGHT"
AS FAR AS GUN RIGHTS PEOPLE MIGHT ARGUE
HE HAD MULTIPLE WEAPONS IN HIS CAR
HE APPARENTLY PAID FOR THEM ALL
NO, HE SHOULD NOT HAVE KILLED THOSE PEOPLE
BUT HE WAS MERELY
EXERCISING HIS 2ND AMENDMENT RIGHT
BY HAVING ALL OF THOSE WEAPONS

THE TERRORIST WAS COURT MARTIALED IN 2012
AND RELEASED FROM THE U.S. AIR FORCE IN 2014
WITH A "BAD BEHAVIOR" DISCHARGE
BECAUSE OF ABUSING HIS WIFE AND CHILD
BUT EVEN THE DOMESTIC ABUSE ISSUE ALONE
WASN'T ENOUGH 
TO KEEP HIM FROM LEGALLY BUYING WEAPONS
AND THE TERRORIST WAS DENIED A RIGHT-TO-CARRY PERMIT
NOT DENIED TO BUY, MIND YOU,
JUST DENIED TO CARRY

BUT GUN RIGHTS PEOPLE WILL SAY HE SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN PREVENTED FROM BUYING HIS ARSENAL
SO HIS DOING SO WAS NOTHING MORE THAN
EXERCISING HIS SECOND AMENDMENT RIGHT
AFTER ALL, HE DID EVERYTHING "RIGHT"

KEN PAXTON, TEXAS' STATE ATTORNEY GENERAL
OFFERED THE FOLLOWING STATEMENT:
"As we speak, we've had shootings at churches 
for forever.  This is going to happen again.
And so, we need people 
in terms of professional security or in terms of
arming the parishioners or the congregation
so that they can respond 
when something like this happens again."

"RIGHT", MR. PAXTON, MORE AND MORE GUNS
SINCE THE TERRORIST DID EVERYTHING "RIGHT"
