Yeah Matthews has become just as bad as the Rush, Beck, and Dobbs at this point. I've got him on right now and he keeps deflecting reality and blaming every bit of dissent on race or from birthers. The guy seems to have lost the ability to have a grown up conversation.

Stop putting others on pedestals to where the 'common people' lose their rights because a member of the 'special class' is near....

Matthews had no hope with this guy.

Back when I was young, stupid and liberal, I actually thought this guy was unbiased.
Actually, no, just the opposite. The gun-toting nut is the one who got pwnd.

Matthews is just phoning in his efforts now. There's something up between him and MSNBC's honchos, I think he's getting disgusted with the network. Either that or they've come down on him for not stooping to new depths like everybody else there.

I never said I did not believe in Constitutional rights. I have every right to be fearful if someone has a gun. Especially at a protest. Especially where people get ANGRY and might start a shooting spree. I (and other people) have a right to life and I do not want to risk it because some Republican got angry at a Health Care meeting.

If you are upset that I have the right to life, it is YOUR problem. Sorry sweetie.

No kidding. I was thinking you were a conservative and actually pretty surprised at people's reaction. I don't see what the big deal is. If there is a protest with high emotions and rage, having a gun there is not safe. I mean people start hitting other people. We don't need someone to die.

Again...you being frightened doesn't mean another person loses their rights....this man had every right to do what he did,you being afraid is immaterial and unimportant.

Are you this frightened by armed police officers???

This guy doesn't care about healthcare but his fanatical thinking that his rights are slowly being eroded hence strapping his gun to his thigh. Not the brightest thing to do at a town hall meeting with the President attending.

He's gone loon after realizing he was never gonna get a chance to run for the senate. He doesn't even try anymore, all he does is call everyone who disagrees a racist or a birther. Come on. Disagreeing with the president has nothing to do with race.

He used to have a decent show and would let both sides talk, now I change the channel. Outside of the Sunday shows there is nothing on any cable news channel worth watching. They've all gone bat**** crazy.

Sounds like you are pretty bitter and angry with all those personal attacks. Typical liberal responses though

When Chris mathews looks in the mirror, he gets owned
