The author makes several good points. Chief among them is that the media's near-hysteria over people doing legal things like carrying guns, stand in sharp (but sad) contrast to their indifference to people doing highly illegal things (like passing unconstitutional laws, with the power of the police, FBI, etc. to back them up).
Barack Obama has thousands of guys -- many with real machine guns -- to help him promote his vision for a socialist America. But one guy with a semi-automatic, safely slung, standing outside on the sidewalk answering people's questions -- that's scary?

I don't think Bush or Obama read the United States constitution
Theoretically police and soldiers are not required to execute "illegal" orders. Determining the legality of a particular order is the problem.

Street gangs have to be handled as individuals because AFAIK our law does not have any provisions for prosecuting organized armed gangs. If we do we should be using them against the drug distributers instead of encouraging these gangs by failing to prosecute.
The RICO statute is used against organized gangs and Mafia Families. It has been effective in prosecuting drug gangs.
I don't know about "fear"...but we should not trust anyone who is armed. No matter how beneficient or non-confrontational they claim to be.
Armed is a relative term but only a coward would want everyone disarmed.
Everyone armed is a much better deal. Take a look at the Swiss way, a country with lower crime & a much more liberal European type philosophy.
Guns are not the issue, Gov't mistrust of the citizenry & uninformed paranoia by the sheeple are.
Talking about the Patriot Act that just got expanded?
Yes, that bad, bad Patriot Act those dems hated so much is now a good thing.
Another thing the dems hated so much and is now ok.
Seems like a demwit trend to me.
It was not ok for them to do it, but it sure the hell is ok when we do it.
Its the liberal way.
