Man Carries An AR 15 Around At Obama Rally In Phoenix

[melskilove]

what was the threat about again?????? Healthcare you people are dumb as hell, this moron brings an AR-15 TO HEALTHCARE RALLY WTF does that have to do with your guns..this how guns get taking away because one has nothing to do with the other and you show up with a riffle.misinformed idiots..

[buddh1stpr13st]

clearly the black man is a white male racist. msnbc made that quite clear.

[CSeanHu8]

Nah I know his attorney. He's for real.

[angel2rx]

NO WONDER obama AND HIS FLUNCKIES HATE ARIZONA , THEY'RE ABLE TO PROTECT THEMSELVES. THE REST OF AMERICA SHOULD FOLLOW ARIZONA AND TEXAS LAWS, IF SOMEONE BREAKS INTO YOUR HOUSE, YOU HAVE THE GOD GIVEN RITE TO PROTECT YOURSELF!!!

[ieatwithjesus]

isnt that brandishing ?

[Chslosers]

@ieatwithjesus Wave or flourish (something, esp. a weapon) as a threat or in anger or excitement

[burchified]

Its sad that this even causes controversy. If an armed guard at a rally carries one, nobody cares. But if a citizen has one, it's in the news?

[intrepidorator]

In my opinion the man was making a point about our freedoms. I think that the liberals in this country can't understand this.

If the government can restrict our 2nd ammendment rights, why can't they restrict our 1st ammendment rights or any other right?

[2012rurede]

its easier to stand in a group of unarmed people americans with an AR-15 than it is to go to Afghanistan and sit in the desert in the middle of a Taliban camp with an M-16.

[halcyon180]

@2012rurede um i agree with that to a point. You know its your right to carry around your rifle in a hostile situation overseas, especially when you have a duty to do so, but what about in a situation on your own soil where the constitution says you can, but law makers would see you shot for doing so. What happens if your own soil becomes hostile and you have no way of securing your life or liberty? He is not carrying that to look cool, its to state that its what secures our freedom

[sylentmyst]

By law the man is allowed to carry the thing in public anyway, so other than the rally, he's not doing anything wrong. So to those that are saying they are only allowed for foreign invasion are wrong. If i want to walk into that crowd sporting my .50 Beowulf with full tac gear and 6 full mags of ammo, I can. People may see something wrong with it, but that just sucks for them, one reason I love the US.

[Jeenyus1983]

LET ME KNOW NEXT TIME AND MY WIFE AND WE'LL SHOW WITH OUR AR15's

[FireZeus]

That Patriot with the AR15 is a good friend of mine. Chris, the first time I seen him I was on my way to Ernies house (Reporter) to gather to protest the Communist rail system and saw him riding a dirt bike with anti Obama stickers and pro USA/Freedom stickers all over it. I decided to follow him since it seemed like he was headed the same way as I. It was a good thing I followed him, later to be a good friend and fellow Molon Labe Patriot. God Bless the Rainbow Warriors in the coming Wars!

[VirginianAmerican]

Oh My God...A black man with a gun!!!

Darn, can't say redreck

[VirginianAmerican]

Let's see what would George say...

Firearms are second only to the Constitution in importance; they are the peoples' liberty's teeth.

~~George Washington

[thejay2012]

To the people who refer to the man's right to bear arms: That law was made to protect the people from forming a militia in a time of local danger or foreign attack on local soil. Not to tote to your local rally for the President. That is like claiming someone's freedom of speech after they threaten to blow up a plane.

[WoWbob396]

I thought the second amendment also states that people have t he right to bear arms in case of a tyrannical government.

[thejay2012]

Is there a tyrannical government, no. Besides, to debase a truly tyrannical government the people would form a militia to engage in warfare with said tyrannical government. In this case, I see no evidence of a tyrannical government.

[WoWbob396]

Ha, I think there will be one soon. A one world government? they are talking about a NWO.  As they say power corrupts so absolute power would probably mean Absolute corruption.

[thejay2012]

Which is why we have checks and balances. A NWO would mean no war between countries, Easier universal standards. However, it will not happen, a world power of the sorts would have too much trouble with rebel uprisings trying to seize local power and essentially would collapse. Obama is far less to worry about than Bush was.

[WoWbob396]

Dude watch endgame.

[162berto]

And as they say, Absolute Bullshit is just that, ABSOLUTE BULLSHIT!!!!

[WoWbob396]

I don't believe the government is truly doing what is in our interest.  Since Mrs. Barack has 23 servants....

[LordWhorfinX]

Yeah! Yeah there is you simple moron! And we're armed to defend against them as the Constitution allows us to do!!!

[TruthVideos777Ver2]

I would have been there if I wasn't working!

I would have carried my 9MM!!!!

5 stars to the guy carrying the AR15. It's his 2nd ammendment right!!!

[TrollKing2009]

i cant see why the secret service snipers didnt waste this asshole. Obama HAS to be protected at ALL costs and people arent allowed to own guns

[weedcelso]

i agree man.... this is shit man this is SHIT

[CornellMan00]

go to work! Go to work! Go to work!

[CorbinKale]

When exercising one's Right to free speech, assembly and petion of the government for a redress of grievances, why not exercise one's Right to keep and bear arms? I respect a man who claims ALL of his God-given, constitutionally protected Rights.

Use 'em, or lose 'em!

All the hoopla is just fear-mongering. The only people who truly fear armed, law-abiding citizens are enemies of the Constitution.

[the82spartans]

Wha....?

This A-hole say's that it was just a publicity stunt?

Note for him: Don't add to the gene pool.

[mumeson]

Confronting hoplophobia is the only way to cure it. It is a disease that must be treated the same way we treated racism. We made our greatest strides against racial segregation and against racism through bussing and forced integration of schools. The same approach will be necessary to teach those on the ignorant left that guns are not evil, and that they need not be frightened by guns in the hands of law abiding citizens.

[Alfrunk]

But he had a gun so he was obviously going to kill someone, right?? lol

[Boomer1949]

Yes the guy was within his rights to have his assault rifle at the rally. No big deal? As a matter of fact he could walk all over AZ with that gun slung over his shoulder, so what? He's sane, law abiding citizen, with only the general safety of the community and his own life at heart. Maybe he's in security or something and needs to have an open carry permit. Maybe he isn't angry or afraid, just standing around, even forgot he had the gun strapped on..opps!

[LordWhorfinX]

The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants................

[Alfrunk]

It's LEGAL for this guy to carry if he chooses to. It just shows the bedwetting, nanny state liberals do not trust individuals to be responsible. A bigger case of projection, I have not seen. Only in America would something that is COMPLETELY LEGAL make headline news like this. Can we carry firearms? YES WE CAN! Also, where are the cries of racism - isn't this a black dude? Criticizing a black person you disagree with is obviously racist.

[thechr0nix]

Gotta love Arizona!

[LordWhorfinX]

This man is awesome. It is his RIGHT to carry that weapon responsibly. Kudos to you brother.

TAKE BACK THIS COUNTRY!!! IMPEACH OBAMA!

[162berto]

This brother was there in support of President Obama's health care plan! He's carrying because ,Not only does he have the right to, But also just in case the fucking impeach Obama nuts decide to get a little frisky!!! you're gonna see more of this in the future, If you idiots believe you're the only one's who are gonna be showing up to political rallies with guns you're sadly mistaken

[LordWhorfinX]

no he wasn't, you troll..

IMPEACH OBAMA.....

[162berto]

No he wasn't,,, whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa , You mean ole troll, you burst my wittle wing nut bubble, whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Oh yes he was!!! Com'on do you really believe that the folks who support the POTUS are really gonna take a chance in an open carry state, When you have idiots on the other side who believe Obama is the Antichrist, a Nazi, socialist, usurper,hates white ppl and who supports killing grand ma!!! P.S, In order to impeach you must real charges not made up moronic BULLSHIT! FOOL!!!

[LordWhorfinX]

IMPEACH OBAMA... He IS a socialist you ignorant tool...lol... my GOD you are dumb. He is two steps from being a Nazi.....but he is WAY too stupid to be the antichrist...so I am not worried about that one.

[162berto]

Ok! Ok! You got me! Its true, President Obama is a Nazi, He wants to put all the jews,homosexuals, mentally ill,physically handicapped, sub(blacks)humans and everybody's grand ma in the OVENS( Oh the HORROR) thank God for you 'LordWhorfinX' for how in holy Gods name could we feeble minded Liberals have ever uncovered this FIENDISH plot without You!!! I will now turn in my ACLU card and hit myself in the head with a hammer. In order to become a GOOD REPUBLICAN!!! God Bless Ronald W. Reagan!!!

[CornellMan00]

Common lord. You are on my friends list. Obama is a capitalist with socialist overtones. Nothing more nothing less. You also call him stupid. Well not to many IVY Leauge Grads can be called stupid except W. BUsh. Common lord. What's the reason you want him impeached? Because you think he is a socialist? Socialist and even Nazi's are allowed to become pres. But I must say I feel Obama presented himself as a moderate during the elections. I am pissed that he is so far left. We need moderates!

[CornellMan00]

lol common? woops.

[LordWhorfinX]

Whoa!!...lol Cornell... You want me to not call obama stupid because he is an ivy leacgue guy yet you can call Bush stupid?! Serious double standard there. And he should be kicked out of office....he is stealing taxpayer money to bail out companies that hand out GIANT bonuses when I could use a bailout! He is a straight up socialist, THAT is why I want him out. And not moderates, we need Reagan back...

[CornellMan00]

Lord. Regan was horrible and over rated. Ronnie the union buster? Remember the federal drug laws he put in place. 20 yrs for 2 rocks of crack? Plus he made it so if you worked 2 government jobs like my dad did 20 yrs as a sheriffs officer and 20 yrs as a postal worker he can only collect one pension! Sound fair? He collected like 5 pensions regan. And my pop will get only one. Remeber what he did to the air traffic controllers?Remember his war on drugs which=war on americans=war on our children

[LordWhorfinX]

20 yrs for two crack rocks is a LIGHT punishment in my mind. You should get only one pension, you're only one person. And I don't know about his pension but he was the leader of the free world after all. Over rated? Hardly. He is under rated if anything. His war on drugs? Don't blame him....blame drug dealers and their evil kind. I remember Reagan all too well and would give anything to have a real man and leader like him back again in charge..

[CornellMan00]

Well lord people have problems. What about rehab for 2 rocks? Old laws yes but they were unfair and racial biased. Alcohol kills 350 thousand ppl a year how many died from crack at it's peak a year? 1000? If. Lord. So why did Regan collect more then one pension if he's one person? My old man worked his ass off and they deny him what is owed to him. And lord. I voted for Obama and am Pissed OFF about the bail outs! Thank God my father might get his second pension. They may change that law.

[162berto]

Hell Yeah! A real man who let 250 Marines die in their sleep in Lebanon in 82 and did absolutely nothing in the way of retaliation( he fucking cut and ran the faggot) Yeah Baby! we need a man like old Ronnie W(wimpout) Reagan to trade weapons with terrorist( the fucking Iranians no less) and then give them to south American Contra's so they can use them to protect the cocaine they send to the US so the coke can be sold as crack and we can send the dealers to jail for 20 fucking years!!!! Hooray!

[Alfrunk]

Does it feel good to worship 'ivy league' people? Are you really that insecure? They are the cause of most of the problems in the US, they are mostly members of the parasite 'professions' (law finance, etc), and are worthless if not for the artificial structures that empower them. Shame on you.

[CornellMan00]

Did I say "worship"? I just said he can not be called dumb because he is a grad from an ivy leauge school. Shame on you for being presumptuous. Does it make you feel good to attack someone out of ignorance from a statement that it seems like you did not read? Double shame on you!

[weedcelso]

shit like that just in usa kkkkkk guys i think the 'riight'' to protest is cool congratiolations for america. carry firearms is nice to

[Alfrunk]

Did you notice that the man carrying was BLACK you illiterate moron? Good lord, you lefties are so used to crying kkk/racism, you don't even look at the situation anymore.

[weedcelso]

yes alfrunk ... hes negro so wtf whats the diference man ???

[Alfrunk]

The difference is, you logic impaired moron, that you used the phrase 'usa kkkkkk'. Is he a black kkk member? I know you're undoubtedly dave-chappelle educated, but come on.

[weedcelso]

man i mean .... JUST DRUG DEALERS CARIES AR-15's or pistols (in public) in this country (brazil).... u know ... i mean .....

thats a big risk for ur president barack obama u know ... a

[uwishtoo]

LOL I missed that rally today. Damn ! I would really think that this is a double message to NoBama - not only about the health care bill that is ludicrous but also about the rights to bear arms which he wants to take away from us too

NoBama won't be happy until we are all robots living in tents with no money or jobs

[bertly71]

It is his right as a free man. No compromise on the 2nd amendment or we lose our power to defend ourselves from enemies foreign and domestic of all stripes. The government can't and wont protect us and our families. Our criminal justice system is broken. Criminals do not fear jail.

[AnimalAndy]

Where was the outcry and the well-armed militia when Bush stole the election, used the Constitution for toilet paper, destroyed civil liberties with the patriot act and wiretapped US citizens without legal ground? Oh, I guess all those "patriots" where watching NASCAR.

This is the biggest piece of bullshit: defending from domestic enemies.

You are mad, because our guy won the election - and, gasp, he is black. Plus you like playing with your guns. Which is fine.

Just don't give me this crap.

[bertly71]

My you are brushing stereotypes with a wide brush here. Does that make your prejudices easier to project on other people? Alan Keys would have made a fine president. Domestic enemies are mainly criminals, our failed criminal justice system has gone easy on. Bush is not president anymore, Obama is. if my opinions are crap to you then don't read or respond to them. Just don't judge me or try to vilify me because we disagree.

[Alfrunk]

Ummm, you do know that *gasp* the dude carrying the gun was BLACK right? That fact kinda makes you look like a raving loon, no?

[AnimalAndy]

What is your point? There are no black morons?

[Anakha13]

The point is that the media and the administration (but I repeat myself) are trying to paint those who are expressing a dissenting viewpoint the that of the administration (something that was the highest form of patriotism less than a year ago) as nothing but hate-mongering racists who can't deal with the fact that we have a black President. And the guy exercising both his First and Secondment rights that they're upset about is black... yet the media isn't mentioning that inconvenient detail.

[oyate1960]

BWA! Anti-gun people can't even classify the firearm. It's not an assault weapon, it's the civilian AR-15 semi-automatic rifle sporting rifle.

But oh, it's black and ugly and you don't like it so everyone in the USA has to give up their rights to make libs happy.

[chevy490]

im pretty sure cars kill more people than assult riffles. and you dont see them trying to take those away. ohh wait they are.

[nhteaparty]

I love it! bill you've been out done.

[tomfoo13ry]

This man is well within his rights and should be commended for standing up for those rights.

[Speakmymind02]

Is this guy a plant? never underestimate the other side...

oh BTW, he is wearing Brooks Brothers

[charlesrs]

false flag operation

he was with the pro health care protesters

[LooseLatitude]

Yeah, why is he mingling with the pro-health care side???

[cassidy99ful]

@Speakmymind02 nope,not a plant.you know a louisiana senator once said that gun control was never supposed to apply to white people.if you support gun control you are a racist.pure and simple.

[gveezy21]

Now the vermin in the media can no longer say that it's only white racists who are upset with O.

[AnimalAndy]

No... Nutcases come from all parts of society.

And honestly: don't you already feel safer now that you know that there are angry people with assault rifles in this mob?

I bet people who brought their kids are happy that this gentleman brought a loaded weapon to a rally where tempers tend to flare.

Such a good idea. Since it's *legal* to fart and belch in church, I guess I'll show my appreciation for freedom that way next. Surely no conservative could blame me for celebrating freedom!

[soma187]

how do you know its loaded?... doesn't appear this liberal Obamarxist is breaking any laws, so again who cares?

[0rip0]

"Nutcases", "angry people", "assualt rifles", "conservatives" - you rabid anti-gun nuts just LOVE your labels.

I guess that's to be expected though, since the U.S. Constitution means nothing and therefore you can't use logic.

[victoriaous]

I would feel safer to know that a sane person exercising their right to protection is standing up for freedom. There have been many instances where gun owners have come to the defense of victims in public situations.I would feel very unsafe if our citizens cannot arm and all thugs know we are easy targets.

[Alfrunk]

The lefty bedwetters just want you to dial 9-11 and hope for the best from the cops. (They also hate cops, so it's kind of weird that they think that way. Disgusting.)

[gveezy21]

Your post was very sophomoric. I'd trust an American patriot before I 'd trust the secret service who also carrying firearms. What are you afraid of? When have you heard of anyone bussin caps at a protest who weren't in uniform?

[AnimalAndy]

You guys don't get the point...

WHY bring a loaded gun to a health care rally. What does that accomplish? People get really angry and emotional at those rallies. You really think that having a few assault rifles ready makes this safer?

This isn't your home.

I bet if I would stand on the other side of the road of your kid's school with a shotgun over my shoulder - that would make you feel safer, right?

It's not about the right to bear arms - it's about not being a jerk about it.

[gveezy21]

First of all you never answered my initial questions. Typical for people like you. Common sense would say that sitting outside of a school with a loaded weapon is not cool so don't equate that with the rally. Listen, the right to bear arms is a right that is not restricted to one's home. Do you want law enforcement have all of the control? It sounds like you are comfortable with the idea of being a serf for the rest of your life. What is being a jerk about bearing arms if nothing happens?

[AnimalAndy]

Gee, gveezy21... let me think... when did something bad happen when people brought guns to where the president made an appearance? hmmm...Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley, Kennedy, Reagan... 17 attempts on the lives of presidents in office so far. Does that answer your question?

And yes, I feel much better with law enforcement having the control in the public area. I don't want some gung-hos dishing out "justice" according to their opinion.

Defend your home and your family. Not the public.

[Alfrunk]

I see you've been watching the daily show. Nice. Now please explain how carrying a weapon makes a person angry. Didn't think so.

[weedcelso]

man actly im brasilian a never seed anything like that ....... WHO CARRIES AR-15 HERE ?????? DRUG DEALERS MAN........ LAWS HERE ARE AGAINST FIREARMS

[AnimalAndy]

Alfrunk... show me where I said that carrying a gun *makes* someone angry. Well? Right, I didn't. Maybe you should read a post before posting knee-jerk replies.

"Didn't think so" indeed.

[Alfrunk]

Yes. What a 'nutcase'! How many people did h shoot? What did he do other than carry a weapon? NOTHING. Now stfu statist idiot.

[AnimalAndy]

Yeah, right. *ALL* people who killed other people where "just carrying" a gun until they started shooting. It's kinda tough otherwise, right?

And again, would you be okay if there was a guy with a gun across the street from your kid's school? After all: what did he do? Nothing. He is just standing there, looking at your kids. Nothing to worry about, right?

If you think that would be uncool, you might understand why I feel the same about this guy.

[Blackhalo325]

Brings a smile to my face.

[OlGreyWolf58]

do not even need a permit to open carry in NH

[joegully]

In Arizona it's legal as long as you have a permit.

[Shad0wSquirrel]

and its legal in AZ to have a small fire arm with no permit as long as its in a holster and not hidden
