The left, the right, and the Bill of Rights
If you ever run into someone claiming the Left wants to take away our rights because they want some sort of gun control, ask them to watch the video attached to this article. Its from the Boston marathon bombing aftermath, and John Stewart breaks down Fox News demanding nearly every single amendment in the Bill of Rights be tossed aside and ignored.
I remember seeing it when it first aired and dragged it out today to smack down a stupid wingnut this afternoon.
