Newark Airport security guard John Brek arrested for making threats against President Obama

<snip>
Gun-loving John Brek, 55, of Linden, N.J., was taken into custody after his co-workers reported a conversation they had at an airport coffee cart to authorities.

He was charged under state law with making terroristic threats against the president.

Brek is a Republican and a member of the National Rifle Association, his father told the Newark Star-Ledger.

A search of Brek's home turned up 43 firearms - although they all appeared to be registered weapons, officials said.

Obama is flying in Air Force One to Newark Airport for a Wednesday campaign stop with fellow Democrat Gov. John Corzine.

2. Only in America does "the right to bear arms" mean owning 43 guns.
When is this stupidity going to end?

4. I would hope that what they bust him on is more than the Obama equivalent of
a joke about a "burning bush" in a bar ...

but then, I wonder how many guns that guy had in his house ...
