(NaturalNews) A radio host with TalkNetwork plans to drive the point home about how vulnerable disarmed American students on college campuses are, by staging a mock mass shooting event near the University of Texas-Austin campus on Saturday.

Murdoch Pizgatti, a founder of the gun rights groups Come and Take It Texas and DontComply.com, and host of TalkNetwork's Don't Comply Show, said in a Facebook post that the demonstration is aimed at ending "Gun Free Zones in Texas."

"In the wake of yet another gun free zone shooting, [President] Obama is using it to aggressively push his gun confiscation agenda. Now is the time to stand up, take a walk, speak out against the lies and put an end to the gun free killing zones," Pizgatti wrote in an apparent reference to the recent terrorism-related killings in San Bernardino, Calif.

"At noon we will walk down Guadalupe St next to the UT campus. Ending the walk back at the meet up point, San Antonio Parking Garage. After putting up our guns we will return to the UT campus to put on a theatrical performance starting at 2:30pm. This will be an epic event," he continued.

 

'Act of intimidation?'

An updated news story at The Austin Statesman said that campus officials could consider the uninvited demonstration as criminal trespass, so Pizgatti said he would hold his demonstration on public property adjacent to the university.

"It's a fake mass shooting, and we'll use fake blood," Matthew Short, a spokesman for the group told the Statesman, adding that gun noises will be blared using bullhorns, with "crisis actors" playing the roles of rescuers, who will also be armed with cardboard guns.

On the DontComply.com website, Pizgatti further explained why the event is important:

"A skit of significance detailing a very specific cause, (Personal Protection), a Human Right that seems to have been slowly removed from the people and placed upon a shelf to be voted off or given back according to whomever is deserving of this essential benefit. Wanting to capture the crucial dangers of gun free zones we are acting out a play or series of plays in which one or two are armed against a group of unarmed victims, ending in a number of casualties that are a result of a law regulating self-defense or any similar rule that is abided by only the innocent.

"Our goal is to instill the importance of everyone to be able to defend themselves in any way they choose. This way we can broadcast it to everyone, including our readers and the listeners of our show. We have had our share of negativity throughout the years and have still come out unscathed by any proposed deterrence of our ideas."

Details of the event are as follows:

Date: Dec 12th

Time: 12:00pm

Meetup: 2426 San Antonio St, Austin, Texas

In speaking with the Statesman, Short emphasized the importance of self-defense anywhere and everywhere.

"Criminals that want to do evil things and commit murder go places where people are not going to be able to stop them," he said. "When seconds count, the cops are minutes away."

As you might imagine, not everyone agrees that Pizgatti's and Short's event is warranted, or even necessary – or conscientious.

"Staging a mass shooting during an anxious time for students — finals week — not only breaks rules but shows real disrespect for the feelings of students, faculty and staff who don't want to have guns around them in the first place, but will be forced to put up with guns in public places in 2016," UT history professor Joan Neuberger, who helps lead Gun Free UT, told the Statesman. She added that the event was an act of "intimidation."

Tens of millions of Americans would disagree. Gun sales set another record in the days following the San Bernardino shootings, after six straight months of record sales. That ought to give any rational, fair-minded person the impression that most of us don't think the government or police – or liberal professors – can protect us very well.
