*sigh* Meanwhile, a group of 2000 armed people, many open carrying, gathered at the Oklahoma State Capitol. Nobody was shot, no horses fainted, and no ladies stampeded. The elected officials who were present managed to escape with their lives.

Of course, the successful rally's won't be more than a blip in the news.

Part of the plan...

you are 100% correct. It is all part of the plan.

It would not be hard for the govt. to hire people to do such stupid things that almost never happen (other than today coincadentaly).

"So all I have to do is shoot myself in the hand?"
"Yep"
"And youll give me all this money and other benefits?"
"Yep"
"Ill do it!"

Dixie Gun and Knife Show attendees bolted, with at least one woman wiping out in the frenetic scene, after gunfire rang out around 1 p.m., as seen on video captured by CNN affiliate WRAL.

Police later explained that a a 36-year-old man from Wilmington, North Carolina, was unfastening the case of his 12-gauge shotgun on a table near the show entrance when it accidentally discharged.
Meanwhile, in Indianapolis, a man walking out of the Indy 1500 Gun and Knife Show shot himself in the hand as he was loading his .45-caliber semi-automatic firearm, Indiana State Police said in a statement.
The 54-year-old Indianapolis man was sent to Wishard Hospital for treatment after being "slightly" injured.

"The investigation determined the shooting to be accidental, and no charges will be filed," police said.

Medina police Chief Pat Berarducci said a gun dealer was checking out a semi-automatic handgun he had just bought when he accidentally pulled the trigger.
Investigators believe the round hit the floor and struck a man standing nearby in the leg and arm.
