Recent gatherings (Town Hall meetings and others) where the President has spoken have drawn gun-toting individuals! The most recent incident I am aware of took place in Arizona where a fellow showed up with a semi-automatic military rifle slung over his shoulder...the gun was loaded. Here's something amazing, at least to me, there is no law against such in Arizona! Evidently in that southwestern state there is a recognized need to carry such a weapon to fend off...what: rampaging wild buffalo, large groupings of attack rattlesnakes, persons massed to take over the Grand Canyon?
I am very aware of people who make the claim that carrying guns to political gatherings is their constitutional (if not God-given)right. But, my goodness, this is, to my thinking, either silliness or taunting. I believe it could be the latter.
I continue to think that ugly racism is behind much of the reaction to our current President.
Its an embarrassment.
