More Gun Violence



Man charged after allegedly firing air rifle at Post Oak Mall 

Posted: Monday, January 28, 2013 12:00 am | Updated: 12:05 am, Mon Jan 28, 2013. 

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.

Facebook Posts About Gun Control








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.
Many Texans adamantly defend their right to bear arms...

Texas Gun Owners


IDENTIFYING GUN OWNERS IN YOUR STATE (from a friend of mine in Texas)

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.

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