If the conservatives were not a 'threat' they wouldent bother so I figure were doing something right.

Politics at gunpoint. Hooray! Somalia here we come!

Once again you totally misconstrued my point.

My point is that maybe that guy took a gun, and assault weapon at that only to create a contriversy like this one. In other words he had ulterior motives.

Im not advocating in fact Im warning against violent screaming pushing matches instead of frank discussion.

The lib's want us to look like a bunch of raving lunitics and how better to 'prove' that than have some guy with a gun show up. Hell Im supprised he dident have a Bible in the other hand just to complete the steriotype.

He'd have to be wearing the "eagle crying superimposed over the burning World Trade Center" shirt to complete the look for me.

With John 3:16 on the back of it and the word's "NEVER FORGET".

I wonder if the guy brought an assault weapon or just a semi-automatic weapon that resembles an assault weapon?

Sorry, just my old creaking soapbox about the political misuse of the term "assault weapon"

He brought an AR-15. Semi-auto all the way. But again the media labeled it an assault weapon. I feel the same way Platapus.

I wonder how many cross hairs were centered on that guys cranium at one time. I'm betting an average of three and a max of five.

The media (and gun control/ban proponents) incorrectly considers any gun that automatically chambers the next round an "assault" weapon, including hand guns, both sliding bolt and revolvers.
