An AP photographer creates a photo that makes it looks like Ted Cruz is being targeted with a gun.
From Politico:
The photograph — taken by the AP’s Charlie Neibergall — actually captured a background poster, with a large semi-blurred image of a handgun pointed at Cruz’s forehead, straight between the eyes.
Cruz was appearing Saturday at CrossRoads Shooting Sports in Johnston, Iowa. During his speech, Cruz, an outspoken proponent of Second Amendment rights, encouraged residents to adopt what he called a Texan approach to guns by simply “hitting what you aim at.”
A day earlier, the Republican presidential candidate accused Democrats of using Wednesday’s church massacre in Charleston, South Carolina, as an excuse “to take away the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens.”
Twitter went nuts:

I guess this was Ted Cruz offense:

Here’s one image that uses the GOP as ‘targets’ of the Democrats. Result? No outrage:
If not for double standards, the left would have no standards at all.
