I would tend to agree. And it's not the same as what seditionists like Cornell West are saying when they want their people to arm up. They intend to USE them on people like lynch mobs or brownshirts running amok in a hazy bloodlust of hatred and envy.She's trying to equate a person of questionable affiliation carrying at the Tea Parties as them being an armed insurrection like the left is screaming for.So what? It is an exercise of one's right. Why are you against rights?
I find this line in the article interesting.
New Mexicos Constitution allows for open carry of firearms to most public places.
I am also constantly reminded of a funny scene in "Miss Congeniality" where the pageant is in Texas and she spots someone armed and goes nuts not realizing it's perfectly normal to see in Texas a man openly armed.
So... red letter day. Truthiepoo actually did find an incident where a member or two of the tea party showed up with weapons... in a state where open carry laws exist, and are common practice. She actually found something that was true... but still misleading in its context.
Those are rare instances. We have had Threads on the issue. I personally think it's a bad idea to bring fire-arms to Political Events.
