AFAIC, just because you have the right to do something doesn’t necessarily make it the best thing to do.

However, the MSM seemed to not be able to see any firearms carried by a number of Black Panthers who gathered in a protest in 2000 against Bush:

To complete the thought, when leftists legally carry firearms in public near the POTUS and it is not an issue with the MSM, yet when non-leftists do the same thing and it is an issue, then what, exactly, is the issue? It is certainly NOT the RKBA.

Great find. I remember that story, and I’ve been wondering how the media coverage of it would compare to media coverage of armed protesters today.
