Politico Journalist Who Advocated for Gun Control Blames Terrorism Victims For Not Protecting Themselves!
Well here’s a bitter irony… Glenn Thrush works for Politico and tweeted this about the obligation of news organizations to “crusade” for gun control:
MT @froomkin: Advocating for gun control is not partisan or liberal, it is simply humane. Every news organization should be crusading for it

Here’s the same dude today blaming the victims of Islamic terror in Paris for not defending themselves!!!
Why didn't they have 24/7 protection? MT @jaketapper: In Nov 2011 mag published cartoon of Mohammed; offices burned to the ground that day

It’d be funny if it wasn’t so pathetic.
UPDATE:
Uh oh!! Glenn wasn’t too happy with me digging up his old tweet on gun control:
Twitter, definition: Magic machine that instantly transforms complex, scary, incomprehensible world events into comforting binary idiocies.

Oh we’re so simple and he’s so complex! Actually this awful event isn’t incomprehensible, but people like Glenn take comfort in pretending it is so that they don’t have to face obvious but difficult realities.
