[Blackwood, New Jersey] House Speaker Nancy Pelosi stumped in South Jersey Saturday on behalf of U.S. House Rep. Donald Norcross in his campaign for re-election.
Pelosi was joined by New Jersey Governor, Phil Murphy (D) and Senator Corey Booker (D), all of whom are staunchly against Second Amendment rights, and are known to push for gun control.
The Democrats were met by hundreds of peaceful protestors who filled the sidewalk at Camden County College, demonstrating and holding pro-Second Amendment and pro-Trump signs.
A civilian on the sidewalk snapped this photo, showing a member of the Democrats’ security force, dangerously pointing a firearm at the crowd of civilians. By any standard, this unequivocally violates basic safety rules and calls into question training, and protocol.
William J. Hayden who attended the protest said: “You can clearly see he is pointing the weapon at us. This is why they want complete and total disarmament of the civilian population. And in New Jersey, where the right is diminished, this should be a wake up call to even those that think only the government should have firearms……”
Pointing a rifle at one’s political enemies could be aggravated assault at a minimum, but worse, it bears the hallmarks of tyranny.
New Jersey is one of the most infringed states in the nation. Less than .01 percent of gun owners in the state have carry permits. The standard for carry permits requires the applicant to prove “justifiable need”. Hardly anyone can meet the standard, even those who have been threatened by criminals, and repeatedly kidnapped.

I don’t know, pretty sure all 3 of those rifles are pointed at someone on the other side of that stadium.

Oddly enough, firearms do not shoot on their own.
Lon Horiuchi retired didn’t he?
You need MUCH better image resolution to make that case. First, you posted a 254x300 pixel JPEG image. You can’t really tell what he has in his hand. The first rule of image analysis is NEVER use JPEG because they use a lossy compression. One would need a telephoto lens where the people on the roof are well resolved from the “weapon”. Look at any text on digital image analysis. Kenneth Castleman’s Digital Image Analysis is a good place to start (my edition is 1996 but the basics haven’t changed that much...). If you want to play with the image yourself, try the Fiji/ImageJ Open Source software.
It depends. The deep state law would likely just say: "Oh, it was just security people doing their job."
Get off your effin high horse that you climbed on.
Guess what this finger is for>>>>>
From the photo I can’t tell much.
The rest of your comment, we agree.
So I guess that negates one of the main rules of handling a firearm, always keep it pointed in a safe direction. Guess we can throw that one out thanks to your observation.

Yes he indeed did that very thing. He said if he was a bit slower, that sniper would have shot him through HIS scope.
Pelosi and the armed guard should be sued.
