The left is wandering into some dangerous psychological ground with their growing cognitive dissonance.

They’re supporting one thing that they know is dead wrong but blaming the right for the results. It simply cannot hold and a lot of lefty brains are going to seriously snap.

They know they’re losing over the CT incident -

As much as I hope you are right, I'm not as confident as you.

All that firepower required by the police and yet the left wants to deny me the right to protect myself and family with a lot less.

"All that firepower required by the police and yet the left wants to deny me the right to protect myself and family with a lot less."

And if a new gun control bill gets through Congress in the created crisis atmosphere that includes criminalizing ownership of currently legal guns, that firepower will be deployed against the American citizenry.

“They change stories, cover up stories, plant evidence, falsely interpret footage...”

Sounds like the lousy, confusing and irresponsible reporting job done at the Sandy Hook (CT) School.

This is the headline from Forbes:

Another Deadly Shooting — In Aurora. It’s Time For Gun Buyback

I don’t read anything yet about the perp, and who he might be.
