If the law states you can carry, it’s perfectly acceptable.
NY Law permits your grandmother to walk around topless.
I have to agree with Stroked, if you can’t understand that you don’t get to do whatever you want around the President then you are missing some serious common sense.
How is having a gun the same as a bible? Last I checked the bible couldn’t kill them. He could probably stand there all day, but they certainly won’t let him bring it in the building… just like they wouldn’t let him bring it on a plane.
Ya, and if she feels that’s something she wants to do…it’s perfectly acceptable for her to do so.
Would I like to see it, no. Would anyone want to see it, I doubt it. However she’s well within her legal right to do so.
And as far as the gun thing goes, all it would take is one crazy dipshit to do something and it discredits what everyone who opposes healthcare stands for. Not to say there aren’t lunatics out there that could do something dumb, but I just don’t see it happening.
The president wasn’t even in NH yet
They stated during the broadcast that he was JUST boarding AF1 to go to NH…As soon as that plane lands, that guy would be GONE.
I completely disagree with you. NH is the “Live Free or Die” state. They pride themselves on their personal freedoms. This guy wanted to illustrate that he is free to carry the firearm, as many NHer’s do.
If everyone were legally and visibly armed, I’m willing to bet no one would pull the trigger.
Legal? Yes.
Socially acceptable? Not so much.
He brought a gun to a protest…thats dumb right there.
He brought a gun to where the President was going to speak…thats fucking stupid.
Can’t the gun rights crowd get people with better sense to represent their interests?
that’s your opinion.
Can’t the anti-gun crowd not freak out over someone exercising their legal right?
It is VERY socially accepted in NH.
I was in VT one time. Cop showed up for a noise complaint and saw that we had a taser(low power) that we were horsing around with. Long Story short, he told us to bring 9mms next time.
I would be willing to bet this guy left his house with that gun on him and didn’t even realize that there were people out there who would make a big deal over it. He probably brings it everywhere he goes.
I am going to go out on a limb and say, I don’t think “social acceptance” was this guys motivation or goal.
Why are guns so scary to everyone?
Maybe if everyone brought guns these scumbags(all elected scum included) would be more likely to tell the truth.:gotme:
Yeah you are right. I’m just going to let you guys go with this. I love shooting guns, I own guns, my family owns guns. I just don’t think they have a place at a protest where people’s emotions can get the better of them.
I certainly think that you shouldn’t bring them to a Presidential event. I’d like to see more responsible gun ownership in this country so that we don’t have to wait a year and a half for a pistol permit. Guys like this don’t make that very likely.
Thats my opinion go ahead and begin the bashing I don’t care.

This clip was posted by the organization that he was representing on the sign. If you look closely at the 2:12 mark you will see RestoreTheRepublic.com. This is also the same URL that is in the YouTube info to the right of the video.
This makes me think he simply went there with the gun because he knew his rights. He knew what he was doing. He knew it would draw attention. He is also wearing an ear piece in the video. This makes me think there were others with him possibly keeping an eye on everything for him.
The guy isn’t “doing whatever he wants,” he’s exercising a right. I don’t understand what’s so hard to understand about this…he’s doing NOTHING WRONG.
More people have probably died over the bible than by guns…the bible has been causing deaths for 1000’s of years, guns for only a few hundred…
Our country is full of pussies. OMG A GUN lolers.
