Bloomberg's Gun Control Rally Names Boston Bomber as Victim of Gun Violence
Breitbart's Big Government ^ | June 19, 2013 | AWR Hawkins

At a June 18 gun control rally in New Hampshire sponsored by New York mayor Michael Bloomberg's Mayors Against Illegal Guns group, the name of Boston bomber Tamerlan Tsarnaev was read aloud as a recent victim of gun violence.

Throughout the rally, organizers read a list of names of people who had been killed with guns since the Dec. 14 shootings at the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, CT.

When they read Tsarnaev's name, pro-gun supporters who were at the rally to counter Bloomberg's group began shouting, "He's a terrorist," according to a report by Tim Buckland of the New Hampshire Union-Leader.

Tsarnaev was killed by police in a gun fight days after detonating bombs at the Boston Marathon.

Pro-gun attendees said the buses of the rally organizers had Texas license plates, and rally organizers refused to talk to talk to the media. Gun rights supporter Tony Mayfield was in attendance and said: "This is joke. We have, for all intents and purposes, a corporation from out of town doing this little publicity stunt here."(continued)

I’m a big fan of “gun violence”. Every time some terrorist ends up dead instead of an innocent person dying, I approve. Every time some muscular thug encounters an armed woman or an elderly person who can shoot, I celebrate the chose of gun violence over unarmed victimhood.

Could be. They’re confused about a lot of things.

True, but in Tamerlan’s case, IIRC, it was the car crash that was terminal. Thus Howie Carr’s nickname for him, “Speedbump”.

next they will read the names of all the criminals shot by the NYPD as ‘victims of gun violence.’

Trayvon would have been on the list as well, but that was in 2012/s;) CRIMINALS should NOT be on any such “list”!

Meanwhile, in San Bernardino, CA, Organizing For America drew a crowd of three (3) vehement to their anti gun rally.

Keep on your toes, but I don't think those guys are winning.
