More Gun Violence
Man charged after allegedly firing air rifle at Post Oak Mall

A Bryan (Texas) man faces multiple charges after being accused of causing about
$3,000 in damage after shooting an air rifle at Post Oak Mall over the weekend.
Police said 20-year-old Julio Rodriguez was shooting the rifle in the mall
parking lot late Saturday and shattered a window above a mall entrance near
J.C. Penney.
Mall security officers detained Rodriguez at his vehicle until police
arrived. A search of his vehicle yielded two wine coolers, a glass bowl with
marijuana residue and several items of drug paraphernalia, according to court
documents.
Rodriguez was charged with criminal mischief, a state jail felony
punishable by two years in jail and a $10,000 fine. He was also charged with
three misdemeanors: possession of marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia
and being a minor in possession of alcohol.
Rodriguez was released from the Brazos County Jail on Sunday after posting
a $7,870 bail.
Twenty-seven years ago today...
The space shuttle Challenger exploded just 73 seconds after lift-off. Seven astronauts, including the first teacher in space, were killed. Many older Americans have never fogotten this date, nor where they were when they heard the news on January 28, 1986.

A friend in Texas writes...
Remember
the newspaper in the Northeast that published a map identifying
addresses of all gun owners in that area? Apparently efforts were made
to duplicate that in the State of Texas and I received a map showing
where each gun owner lives in the Lone Star State. Each red dot
represents one address. Apparently it was a bigger task than they could
handle.

(Yes, this is a joke!) But Texans adamantly defend their right to bear arms...
