I will answer you dtewi,

The Constitution give the people the right to bear arms. it's very clear. To do so, is doing nothing wrong.

I can't find anywhere in the constitution, even before any amendments, that say it's OK to own slaves. Mind pointing out where it says so?

dtewi's point isn't wether or not it is legal or part of the constitution, etc.

Just asking if it makes any sense what so ever, and it doesn't.

If you want to protest the President at some rally for any particular view, that's fine. Just do it respectively.

So, was this guy breaking any law, no. Was this disrespectful and over the line, yes.

Same would be to bring a jar that looked like a dead cut up fetus with a label that read 'baby john doe' to protest Obama's stance on abortion. Is it legal, sure, is it the best way to protest, no. Is it disrespectful and over the line, yes.

Personally, I like our gun rights, but I don't think we need assault rifles. If that's allowed, then why not rocket launchers and other missile type projectiles? We have to draw the line somewhere and military grade weapons are definitely over the line.

This guy simply looked like a typical redneck idiot who probably wants to marry his cousin and fish with dynamite.

That's different, unless you think a automatic weapon and a cut up fetus in a jar are equally offensive.

The only way it's in bad taste imo, is if he was implying he wanted to do Obama harm with it. If he is just demonstrating his right, while it's a stupid thing to do, there is nothing wrong with it.
