Asshole heckles grieving father at gun safety rally, gets grabby with cops, ends up tazed.
If only he'd had a gun! Oh, wait.
Minutes before the arrest, Musso had approached and interrupted a speaker at the main rally, which was part of a multistate bus tour sponsored in part by New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, and is trying to raise awareness of gun violence and push for expanded background checks. The speaker, John Cantin, whose daughter was shot and killed by her husband in Manchester in 2009, continued speaking at a podium on the sidewalk next to the bus as Musso, standing to his right, glanced over his shoulder and asked him repeatedly about several of his talking points.
“What kind of gun?” Musso asked, as Cantin said that women living in homes with a gun-owning domestic abuser are hundreds of times more likely to be killed. “A pellet gun, a machine gun – what kind of gun, sir?”

Emotions had been high leading up to the arrest, with dozens of gun rights advocates – many brandishing firearms and signs – chanting loudly as gun regulation speakers talked about and read the names of victims recently killed by gun violence.
“Shame on you,” they repeatedly yelled at one point, as the Rev. Stephen Silver of the First Congregational Church of Lebanon called on the crowd to pray for the more than 6,000 people who have died from gun violence nationally since the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., which left 20 children and six adults dead in December....

Because I always thought it was in reference to this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paladin#Popular_usage
In Dungeons & Dragons, the paladin is a character class, a holy warrior with a strict code of conduct and divinely-granted powers, that resembles the archetypal knight in shining armor.
I see no mention of guns, though it may still be a hired killer, so long as it's for a holy cause.
They are the 'Holy' warriors sent by the Vatican to deal with vampires, werewolves and other 'undesirables'.
Section XIII, The Iscariot Organization. The top secret branch of the Vatican and not to be trusted, especially by us Other-kin.
to master in D&D. You truly have to get in character with that holier-than-thou, goody-two-shoes mentality to play a paladin. Otherwise, you just come across as a standard fighter class that has some extra pluses added.
I've never played a paladin, but the few friends I remember doing so played them like the "group asshole" and always questioning the morality of a situation 
Seems like your recollection with regards to the Paladins' history was also used in that mostly forgettable movie, Jumper, and in a similar way as with other-kin 
It looks good, though I'm not much into that genre these days

My direct implication being the demographic which chants over the names of dead children whilst brandishing weapons rather than a general population as a whole-- as that was the specific demographic referred to in the OP.
That you automatically inferred it as such without allowing for critical thought does tend to aptly and accurately illustrate a reason why I do indeed, avoid that demographic though: knee-jerk reactionism without allowing for all possibilities.
But regardless, if we do allow the presumption that your inference as valid-- why would anyone get offended or defensive simply because another wishes to avoid gun owners (as the majority of gun violence comes from those we know best-- family, friends, etc.)?
My grandfather told me that "insults are the easiest thing in the world to find, as we can find them even in places where they don't exist..."
argumentum ad hominem ("argument against the person"
-- A common fallacy in which someone argues against a position or claim by assailing the proponent of it. The truth or falsehood of a position doesn't depend on who does (or doesn't) espouse it. e.g. "You can't trust Jones' theory of electromagnetic particles because he's a communist." (The theory is good or bad because it comports (or doesn't comport) with certain facts and evidence, not because the man propounding it holds a political affiliation.)
