I always thought they should bring dueling back. Would clean things up a lot.

If congressmen start carrying weapons at public events to protect themselves from us, then shouldn’t we have the right to carry our own weapons at these same events to protect ourselves from them?

Personally I think it should become a mandatory law, all Congressmen/women should be armed or have a qualified bodyguard 24/7.

"So Americans knew relatively little of congressional violence."That changed with the arrival of the telegraph. Congressmen suddenly had to confront the threat — or temptation — of 'instant' nationwide publicity."
The threat--and temptation--is far greater today in the Information Age!
And to confront the threat of TRUTH--"traveling with lightning speed...to the remotest borders of the Republic”--Leftists/Democrats are desperate to silence all voices except their own!

Maybe if they didn’t engage in so much oppression they would have less to fear.

I’m all for this, as long as said Congresscritter isn’t one of those who hypocritically packs heat while trying to grab our guns and make it much more difficult to obtain them.
You know, the Carl Rowan types who would deny us, but keep illegal guns in their own homes. (Yes, I know Rowan is not a politician...)

I approve of this. For everyone who wishes to be armed... Do it.
It's your RIGHT.

The only thing more outrageous and ridiculous than Congressmen’s exempting themselves from the laws they pass on other citizens is the toleration of such a ridiculous outrage by the citizenry itself!

THE announcement that Representatives Heath Shuler of North Carolina and Jason Chaffetz of Utah are planning to wear guns in their home districts has surprised manyIncluding me.
Shouldn't they be setting the example for the rest of us; NO GUNS WITHIN A 1000 FEET OF A CONGRESSMAN?
