MSNBC-OMG! Man with gun at town hall!

[Jack Ryan]

Apparently the cameras noticed some one with a gun strapped on their hip at one of the town hall meetings. LOL. The talking heads are in a panic and about to wet their pants.

Haven't really formed an opinion yet on who is more ridiculous, the New Hampshire cowboy or the talking heads and news readers he put in a tizzy. I was just listening and didn't get to see the visual so I'll just say it's quite a show so far. Well worth the effort just to see TV pansies panic over it.

Fav quote, "OMG who knows what this might lead to. Other people could see this and spawn imitators!"

Heaven forbid, copy cat serial rights exercisers! What is this world coming to. Government officials afraid of armed people they claim to represent. We do live in interesting times.

Rock on, dude!

I couldn't find any on the internet yet. It just came up during some crap meeting with that turn coat opportunist republican turned democrat. I don't even remember what his name was but it's been on TV for at least an hour or so and they just went in to panic mode over the gun issue shortly before I posted it.

 

[waloidian]

if they only knew how many actually were and are carrying. the horror of all these responsible, and sane citizens carrying legal guns!

Shoot i must have just missed it then. I was laughing at their coverage and left to make myself a spot of lunch.

They finally got around to saying he was carrying it in a legal manner. I'm getting tired of all these people thinking CC is the only legal way to carry. Makes me want to OC even more, but I can't since I OC everywhere I go already.

Later Update: The local police tell MSNBC that the man is legally carrying the gun, is nowhere near where the President will be, and is "under constant surveillance."--dk

In all likelyhood that means he has a government sniper rifle zeroed on his head.

This quote: "Apparently not a law officer, but a civilian."

Ummm...aren't policemen "civilians", too??
Last time I checked if you weren't "civilian", you were military (not LEO).

So let me get this straight.... He carried a gun openly into a public and didn't shoot anyone? Why did he even have it? Did he shoot someone before or after the meeting? I don't understand why he had his gun and wasn't going to use it irresponsibly?

 

[Blue Tile Spook]

Because it was strapped to his leg - it was struggling, but couldn't pop the strap to jump out and shoot people at random.

 

[Jubbie]

They should've been freaked out about all the people who were carrying signs. If they are going to be scared of the 2A they shouldn't discriminate against the 1A. What a bunch of racist reporters.

 

[Bubba]

Maybe they're freaking out because it's in a thigh rig? Clearly since he is within both his rights and the law it isn't the gun itself. I'm glad this patriot is comfortable, but I'd be worried about retention if it were me.

This was in NH right? That's the state where carry (CC or OC) is allowed WITHOUT anytype of license. Mean if you are a NH resident of legal age you can buy your gun today at the shop and walk out OC/CC period. It's as normal as coke & a hotdog at a ball park for NH residents.

I was thinking last night that these would be good open carry situations. According to founding fathers the 2nd has a reason for such protection against rogue government elements.

Thanks for sharing this. The frenzied reaction to a right exercised (now even the 1A as well as the 2A) is very telling.

Freedom is the opposite of what the administration wants.
