You know the spin, the one that festers under a rock until it decides to crawl out . . .
The nasty spin where we blame the victims. Or the 'liberals'. You'll hear some short person (in the Randy Newman sense of 'short')say something along the line that "had these college kids been packin', this would never have happened. They could have taken the shooter out before he had a chance to hurt anyone." (Is it just me, but why has the more precise noun 'MURDERER' been replaced by the silly term 'shooter'????). This evil spin will go on to say that snivelling bleeding heart un-American libtards are responsible because they are trying to take away your gawd-given constitutional right to carry arms.
