Sorry, but the NRA isn't a socialist institution, and they are proponents of the Second Amendment being a citizen's Constitutional right (nay, patriotic duty) to overthrow a corrupt government.  

What you have here is a man who recognized a corrupt government and shot an accomplice to that corruption.  He did exactly as Republicans proudly say they'd do.

There's no other way to say it: the Second Amendment strikes again.  Perhaps if West Koreahad sane firearms regulations, there wouldn't be a mass shooting almost every day.  Perhaps mentally disturbed persons such as this man would have been denied possession of his murder hose.  But hey, you can blame it on Socialism if you want.

Yes, of course because if there was no 2nd ammendment then this guy would be sitting in his truck (that he was living out of) knitting a sweater right now. It is always the gun that magically turns people into monsters. Nice dodge there avoding my comment on recent terrorist attacks that did not involve guns ... why aren't we calling for knife control? Why aren't we banning alll cars? Afterall, they could be used to kill people right?

Give me a break ... and rebelling against a corrupt government? This is the same man that actively supported a politician that called for even more government control over every facet of American life including, ironically, guns. You are arguing he is rebelling against a government that became so hopelessly corrupt in under 6 months time? Somehow I don't think the authors of the 2nd ammendment believed that people should attempt to murder politicians because they didn't like the results of ONE election cycle.
