We reported several days ago that two women who were part of a protest against President Barack Obama found themselves looking down the barrel of a gun during their protest. Apparently someone didn’t like the message they were sending.

Now the suspect in that case has been arrested, and it’s an unlikely culprit.

According to WSBTV,

Police have arrested an 84-year-old man accused of pointing a gun at anti-President Barack Obama protestors.

Roy Smith said he kept the Colt .32 handgun in his car for carjackers. Gwinnett police said he faces three counts of misdemeanor simple assault and pointing a firearm at another…

…”Not your typical suspect,” conceded Gwinnett Police Cpl. Ed Ritter.

“Doesn’t matter what his age was, he still threatened somebody with that gun and he is being held accountable for it,” Ritter said.

A witness to the crime was able to provide police with a description of the vehicle, plate numbers, and a description of the suspect, which led police to the man’s home. They obtained a search warrant and found a .32 caliber Colt handgun in his car.

ORIGINAL STORY:

According to WSBTV, two women who were protesting the president, holding signs calling for his impeachment, found themselves staring down the barrel of a gun during their protest.

Moore and Toni Pendley were taking part in Overpasses for Obama’s Impeachment protest. The nationwide protests use interstate overpasses to display messages critical of the president and his policies.

The two women told WSBTV that a man pulled up and pointed a gun right at them, before leaning over and splashing some kind of liquid on the ground around them.

Not ones to be intimidated, the ladies say they’ll be back, from WSBTV,

The women filed a police report with Gwinnett County Police Department and said they’re not backing down.

“We’re going to come back out here. We’re not going to let him intimidate us or anyone,” Pendley said.

From the look of him I’d guess some sort of senility at play here. He seriously was most likely to harm himself firing that thing while on oxygen.

I don't care if he hurts himself. I just worry about his hurting others. An 84 yo whitey hating black 0bama worshiping racist can kill you just as dead as an 18 yo whitey hating black 0bama worshiping racist

Black, angry, and stupid.

Typical 0bama fan except for the black part. At 13% of the population, 0 had to have more white voters than black to get his 51% of the vote.

I’ll bet there are an awful lot of subjects fiercely loyal to the king who would happily aim a gun at anybody protesting the monarchy.

Those black attacks can occur anytime in life. All it takes is a little hate, a little black messiah worship, and half a half-wit.

Actually I suspect that there is a LOT of hate. The media has been supressing reports of random black attacks on whites and outbreaks of black violence for years.

I suspect your suspicions are correct, but I had one well intentioned Freeper tell me that it isn’t hate, but drugs, alcohol, and a violent culture. Of course, all of that is also true, but blacks in America are being taught to hate whites, and we are seeing the outcome of it. The left thinks black hate can be contained in the arena of politics, with the outrage and hate being aimed at Republicans and conservatives, but hate being what it is, has long ago stepped out of politics to infect the entire culture. Blacks freely hate whites, orientals, Hispanics and other blacks.

True. Many stupid white people also voted for Obama. That said, it is sad to think 93% of voting blacks voted for Obama in 2012, a bit more in 2008. Sad. I find that to be racist and stupid on their part. They must have thought Obama being part black meant he wouldn’t screw them as he has been. The stupid whites I know thought anything was better than a Republican or conservative or Christian. Angry, rebels without a clue, and stupid. Black and white.

“He pointed the gun at them because they are white and “his” president is black.”

Exactly.
