Many people just can't seem to get a grasp on the difference between liberty and license.

Yep, most radicals fail miserably in getting their points out there. But definitions of the term differ from one person to another.

Can you imagine the outcry we would have heard from the right had some lunatic shown up outside a GeeDubya event packing an M-16?

And you know the Secret Service would have smoked the guy before he got within a five mile radius of the boy king.

As I posted elsewhere, they were a group of libertarians, that moved back and forth between those for and against the health care bill, and were there for God knows what, I guess to make a statement about individual rights or something, since they didn't appear to be there because of health care.

if its legal to carry a gun then whats the ****ing problem? I guess these gun lovers smart to start the fight now because obviously most don't respect there right to carry a firearm.

[cutthemdown]

obviously they were hoping Obamas people would arrest them. Kudos to them for not giving them that win. Otherwise I don't see what good it did.

I am a 'gun lover' and I think it is completely assinine for anyone to open carry a weapon at a town hall event, whether presedential or otherwise -- but, especially a Presidential event.

It might be 'legal', but that doesn't make it smart or right.

As a supporter of the right to own firearms, I believe open carrying at an event like that simply gives the liberal media and bloggers a chance to talk about the right wing wackos with guns. There is no way that doing that helps the cause of gun rights, only hurts it.

Liberty means you exercise more responsibility, not less. These displays were childish.

This isn't 1890 and if it were someone would have shot their dumb asses before they walked in the door. I alway think of those who carry guns for security as being Chicken**** pansies who couldn't fight their way out of a wet paper bag, and if confronted would **** in their pants.

Well, your assertion about 'who' carries guns for security is way off base, but that's a whole nother discussion.

I don't know where you live, but quite a few states have open carry laws and people are legally allowed to wear a holster and carry a pistol everywhere they go. Now, I personally probably wouldn't do it, even if I lived in an open carry state for a number of reasons: calling attention to my gun, risk of it being grabbed by a kid or someone else, etc. However, that doesn't mean that there is anything wrong with a person doing so.

Anyway, even if you own a gun, your views of gun ownership and use, are clearly liberal.

Would you take a gun to a school just because you could?Seriously man if you can't see what's wrong with this you are seriously brainwashed. it puts the president at risk.

If I was to play Devils advocate, what would be wrong with taking a gun to school if it was legal? If a couple teachers or someone else was armed during the Virginia Tech fiasco, far fewer may have been klled.

That aside, I know a number of states have laws specifically forbidding carrying guns on school grounds (as well as other restricted places). That's the thing that many liberals don't get. Very few law abiding, gun owners commit crimes with guns.

no it doesn't. I researched it. The secret service can prevent anyone with a firearm from being in any building the President is in. It can also remove firearms or people from parade routes etc etc.

At no time was the President in any danger.

I missed the part about him saying the President is at risk. That's simply a misstatement of fact. The secret service said they are very used to dealing with people "open carrying" and work with local law enforcement. People that are open carrying, are never allowed in an area where the President would be in danger.

It just takes common sense. If we get past the rhetoric for a moment, which is more likely to put a President in danger.

1. A person open carrying a rifle or handgun, who is being watched by local police and secret service.

2. Someone like John Hinkley who has a gun hidden under a jacket or in some other means?

This isn't rocket science. A person that comes to an event to assassinate a president would NOT be openly showing the gun. Come on guys, get real.

[footstepsfrom#27]

With Ernest Hancock -- went on CNN and explained to host Rick Sanchez that he and Chris were actually in the middle of a radio broadcast. Hancock, also packing heat at the rally, had invited Chris to come down the protest with his rifle to be interviewed. The two men had known each other for two years, through their work for presidential hopeful Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas).

Sounds like something that nutcake would be involved in somehow.

[footstepsfrom#27]

There is NO WAY anyone should be allowed to carry loaded guns inside a community gathering where tempers might be running high, let alone an assault rifle. Think how easy it would be to have half a dozen nuts show up and mow people down to make some kind of statement. How the hell was this allowed?

My "views" are liberal. Do you pull this **** from your ass?

Your views are twisted. How's that?

Typically, people that hold your views about guns are 'liberal'. You may own a gun or two, but you don't understand much about the subject.
