Kessler claims the Secret Service is cutting corners in an effort to save money, leaving America's first black president particularly vulnerable. The rest of the government is spending money like drunken sailors (my apologies to inebriated seamen everywhere) and we're supposed to believe that the SS is cutting costs when it comes to protecting the lib messiah?

The Brits don’t seem to understand our Constitution and the rule of law.

'You're saying a guy has a gun in the open - where we already know there are concerns about every president's safety, but certainly this president... and the guy's just being allowed to stay there? Is that right?' The reporter replied that the chief of police had told him that 'the law allows this man to be here'.

Yeah, it falls under the 'SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED' part.

Geesh! You'd think a reporter would have SOME grasp of the English language!

“holding a placard that references spilling the blood of patriots”

Um, it is spilling the blood of tyrants. The patriots are the good guys.

I haven't seen to much brilliance from across the pond ... hey .. it is a country whose most famous dessert is called “spotted dick” .... what can I say.

When I first started reading the article I thought the guy was a real troublemaker, not for carrying a gun openly, but for having a lit cigarette in the open.

Sheople have been bombarded by the nanny state whiners for so long that oft times they think something is outrageous that would never have been questioned 25 years ago. It is the old general concept of perception ... an unexercised right, becomes a right loss.

Most people have no idea about open carry. Ohio is an open carry state, but I guarantee if you walk through the downtown streets of pleasantville ... the local donut eaters in blue will arrest you .. and then mumble and try to figure what else to do to you because the made an arrest with no law to back it up.

11 States have no restrictions on open carry. 13 states have open carry with permit. Only 7 states outlaw open carry entirely. The other 19 (does that equal 57 states Obammer??) have so many different goofy hoops to jump through you may as well consider them total non-carry.

Amazing how much comes from the wonderful Europeans and the elitist of us mere colonists want to jump. My only question about the brits and the rest of Europeans, how many more World Wars will we have to come to rescue for. Morons.

Everyone’s fixating on the guy carrying.

Nobody’s noticing that BHO will be ENFORCING his decrees by the same means.

Matthews Interview

POst Matthews Interview

People like this set the bar for the rest of us. It makes me ashamed that I haven't done even this much...

To all the nay-sayers decrying this mans actions... YOU ARE THE PROBLEM. Your fear of failure not only keeps you from trying, but it causes you to spread doubt to those who would exercise their Rights even in the face of hostile opposition.

I’d say the Chief of Police deserves a round of applause. He understands the law and applies it properly.

Some folks in the USA are the same way. I was in Tombstone a while back and a gent from Illinois asked how all those re-enactors were allowed to cary guns.

He was amazed that AZ is an open carry and CCW state. I added that unlike IL, AZ citizens do no need a state license just to own a gun.

Some of those police don’t seem to be very enthusiastic Obama supporters.
