What fool would believe something, just because Rush said it was true?

Well, if Rush said it, it must be true. Thank heavens we don't have to worry anymore that the liberals might outlaw assault weapons. We need MORE Bushmasters floating around, not less. It's so hard for those people with hallucinations and voices in their heads to get an assault weapon when they need one. More Bushmasters should be considered more adaptive technology devices. The American's with Disabilities Act should be amended to reflect this.

I am so happy those children were killed with a pistol instead. That makes the whole thing ever so much better. Yes...

I think I'll go back to my padded cell now.

People who worship at the Church of Rush.

Breaking news, OP: Twenty six people who were in that school remain dead. Including 20 innocent little kids.

You heard it from RUSH??? Oh, that settles it, then!

I remember initial reports were that the Newtown shooter had a rifle, but didn't use it. I think because the first officers on scene found it in his car in the parking lot.

But initial reports are always suject to revision. Every report since has identified the Bushmaster as the murder weapon (should have been obvious once officers got to the classrooms. Gotta assume Lanza didn't pause to pick up his 100's of .223 casings).

Obviously, Lanza used the Bushmaster to commit the crime, returned to the parking lot, placed the rifle back in his car, then shot himself with one of his pistols. Mystery solved.

You mean his source of misinformation? My guess would be he watched one of the YouTube clips out there mislabeled by progunners as a recent development that was actually from early that weekend of the shooting. The chief medical examiner has already confirmed that the students and teachers were shot with the rifle and not the handguns.

I've smacked someone with my carpet knee kicker, and gave them a brand from the teeth, up side the head, after the knot went down.
