Another armed protester spotted outside an Obama event. Not content with the loaded pistol worn by this wimp last week, this fellow adds an AR-16 assault rifle to the ensemble. "What he is doing is perfectly legal", the police officers following him around reassure us. "If we need to intervene, we will intervene at that time."
And another AR-16 has been spotted at the same event, apparently in the hands of a man ranting about socialism.
People protesting the slaughter of American troops and Iraqi civilians wore t-shirts bearing anti-war slogans to Bush town halls and were ejected by security. People protesting the provision of health care to more Americans wear military-grade lethal weapons to Obama town halls and are not ejected.
This reflects interestingly on the Presidents involved: hardcore, militaristic President Bush is too much of a coward to allow someone wearing an embarrassing t-shirt in his presence; 'soft', liberal President Obama is followed around to his speaking engagements by heavily armed enemy fanatics -- some bearing signs advocating his assassination.
UPDATE: Make that three.
