Going berserk that Open Carry Texas, a pro-gun group, would hand out literature to attendees of the South by Southwest Festival in Austin, where President Barack Obama spoke on March 11, members of Michael Bloomberg’s gun-ban group Moms Demand Action tried to incite violence against Second Amendment activists through inflammatory social media posts, Breitbart reports.
Among Facebook and Twitter posts from the Moms Demand mob were gems of civility including: “Time to use an assault weapon on this trash,” “I hope the Secret Service mows them down” and “Just shoot them all.” They also falsely claimed that “Texas open-carry extremists are making threats against President Obama.”
The founder of Open Carry Texas opined that “the reason the Moms Demand Action crowd are so opposed to guns in the hands of the public is because they obviously can’t be trusted with guns in public.” They apparently can’t be trusted to tell the truth, either.
