• "‘And Then the Murders Began’"--Shooting Wire.  An excerpt:

    Many of you want to hit back. Turning the other cheek doesn’t come naturally. Hell, we’re the ones who carry firearms for self-defense. We’re not pushovers, right? Well, not being a pushover isn’t the same as making sure you’re reasonable, responsible, and pragmatic.

    Speaking as someone who was raised to turn the other cheek even if it meant your own injury or demise, I can say that turning the other cheek is generally a load of bull. However, that doesn’t excuse those who rush headlong into battle with no thought for the consequences.

    Did you ever consider that setting things off is exactly what the other side wants? And I don’t mean the left, I mean anyone and everyone who opposes personal liberty, freedom of speech, and yes, the right to bear arms. Has it occurred to you that maybe they want you irrationally angry? You don’t need to be a conspiracy theorist to see chess pieces being maneuvered by a (sort of) unseen hand.

    Don’t give them what they want.
