Recent remarks by Liberty University president Jerry Falwell, Jr. are going viral. In an address to a large audience, he urged students to obtain gun licenses and arm themselves.
Falwell was obviously talking about the terrorists who carried out the attacks in San Bernardino, but as you’ll see below, he had to clarify his statement.
Bradford Richardson reports at The Hill:

Political correctness isn’t helping anyone.
