Quote from: Talking head on video to other talking head
Here's the point on that, and I'm just having a conversation with you, one that I think is logical, that anybody else watching this would have: Just 'cause you can do something, does that mean that you should?  And, given the fact that it's President Obama that we're talking about right now, uh, and NOT President Bush or President Clinton or another President in the past. . . I . . . look. . . Let me ask you this: you've. . . you've been doing this job for a long time, you've been to a lot of these, do you remember people showing up at President Bush's rallies, with open guns like that?

Bold added by me to indicate verbal emphasis.
On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], "Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?" I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.

The AR guy is a friend of mine, and he was extremely apprehensive about doing this the night before.  He ultimately decided that his rights were worth more to him than the potential risk to liberty or health, and went through with it.

Good on the PHX PD for looking out for HIS safety as well as all other parties.  Good on them for electing to squat on him in the crowd, rather than allowing some SS/FBI/Fed goons to do it instead.  My sincere thanks to the local PD's that looked out for the rights of Arizonans at this event while working to preserve a safe environment for the President to visit.

Men like this, who decide to remain active for freedom after their formal service of defending it overseas is done, are assets to your country, IMO. Americans should be proud for having men like these in their country. God bless him.

Was John Wilkes Booth a leftist?

Yes.  He disagreed with a Republican President's war policy, so he assassinated Lincoln.

Lee Harvey Oswald was also a leftist... whether you agree he shot JFK or not.

Hinckley stalked both Carter and Reagan (apolitical in target choice) before going after Reagan to impress Jodi Foster.

Not all assassins are Democrats.... some are merely crazy. =D

It continues.  It looks like the whole OC at protests thing is catching on.  However, it is AZ.
Up to six protestors were spotted carrying arms.

Hopefully this will catch one, =D

"so I ended up getting the above because I didn't want to make a whole production of sticking something between my knees and cranking. To me, the cranking on mine is pretty effortless, at least on the coarse setting. Maybe if someone has arthritis or something, it would be more difficult for them." - Ben

By that stage of the war, lots of 'em.
Here's an interesting book on that subject, suggesting that Jefferson Davis/Richmond was involved in/approved of the Lincoln assassination.
