This is something I will never understand. The war over bumper stickers. I cannot make myself care about other people’s bumper stickers. My sister had a President Obama sticker. My uncle had a Romney sticker. We went to lunch. They parked next to each other. We laughed. It is no one’s business whose bumper sticker one wants to display. Why would anyone care?? And to pull a gun? A gun???

Let me point out the obvious salient point here: it is a FREE speech issue and not a bumper sticker issue.

However let me say as an aside that freedom of speech is still legal in America I believe. Pulling a gun on the apparently deranged Obama claptrap old man was not necessarily the best way to express that right (even though I understand the younger man completely) but I wasn't there and don't know anymore than anyone else here what actually transpired. But I too just might know how the armed vet might feel, I too have been verbally assaulted by a whacked out nut-job Obama knee padder and I was awfully tempted to do what the young veteran did.

He pistol was used in self-defense to stop the ongoing assault by the man who was offended by the bumper sticker. The pistol appears to have been effective in bringing the unprovoked assault to a sudden end.
