It's clear as day why guns at presidential events are a bad idea... |
|
Why can't the pundits realize this?
The more people walking around with guns (even legally) , the harder it is for law enforcement to spot the ones in the group with bad intentions.
Somebody better get this under control soon.

7. Right. And you don't have to be the owner of the gun to be the one using it either. nt |

8. Sometimes one wonders if we are a Democracy anymore |
|
During GOP/GWB, crowds were screened and there were fenced "free speech zone enclosures".
During Dem/Obama, individuals assert the right to bear arm at POTUS events.
WTF? No strong statement from Obama nor our leadership and no hard response from Secret Service nor LE in general?

10. It occured to me while watching Rachel... |
|
That this is exactly whey the right wingnuts want. For Us to make a huge big deal of this; start arresting people and confiscating weapons so that they can say see? Liberals will take away your right to bear arms.
They want to use it for 2010. I would not be surprised in the least if those people carrying weapons weren't paid opperatives for the right.
The problem is that there IS an implied threat there. Democrats are stuck between a rock and a hard place. Do we deal with this and take away the threat thereby giving them just what they wanted?
Or do we ignore it and risk the Presidents life.

12. That was my question, too. |

I thought it was even worse than trying to take a gun on a plane! Who would ever think of doing such a stupid thing??!

15. Some of the gun lovers have lost their minds over this |
|
In another thread, the following "logic" was presented:
Glen Beck, Michael Weiner, Hannity, etc. are part of the gun control movement. See, they are goading their braindead, psychotic listeners into taking assault rifles to Obama events, so that one of them will eventually kill the President, and then the government will be able to take everyone's guns. I bet you didn't know that Beck, et. al. are part of the anti-second amendment movement, did you? Well, now you know!
Fucked. Up. Society.

16. Why are these redneck trash........ |

Edited on Mon Aug-17-09 10:22 PM by deep1
carrying guns? It's like everyday in the news I hear about some fucktard brandishing a gun. Are they trying to intimidate, because they aren't any different from those "MuslINS" they talk shit about. Terrorism is terrorism, it does not matter the race or religion. I am far more concerned about some Jim Bob toothless trash pulling a Mcveigh than Abdul from Al Queda.
They KNOW what they are doing! THIS IS NOT INNOCENT. They are QUIETLY TERRORIZING people.
This country loves gun too much. BAN THEM FROM PUBLIC EVENTS.
God forbid something happens to the president and start race riots everywhere.
