AUSTIN - Pro-gun demonstrators staging a mock mass shooting near the University of Texas at Austin on Saturday were overwhelmed in number and ferocity by a large group of counter-protesters wielding dildos and machines that generated fart sounds.
"This isn't about guns necessarily. This is about scaring our community. This is about a choice between fear and a little bit of good humor," Andrew Dobbs, a UT alumnus who organized the "mass farting" counter-protest told the crowd. "We are in a scary time right now and lots of scary things are happening, and some people want us to be more afraid."
"I choose to believe that fear is not the solution to the threat of our time. That laughing in the face of fear is a courageous act and toting a gun around everywhere you go, maybe not so much," he added. "When you come to my community, to the university that I love, and you threaten the lives of my friends, what I have to say is, I'm going to fart in your face!"

(18,318 posts)...at the Capitol bldg some 25 yrs ago. A rented school bus disgorged the regulars of the Saxon Pub in South Austin onto the lawn. They then arrayed before the KKK, in hoods and all, turned around, and mooned en masse. Funny, seeing attempts to blot out hindquarters and swinging junk. The Klan looked at each other and packed it out, never came back.
