Liberals, why the uproar over Conservatives carrying firearms legally?

But no uproar over Black Panthers with batons intimidating voters at a voting booth in Philadelphia?

    Perhaps they didn't know about that incident...or they simply don't care.

    Becouse they can't grasp the fact that were actually not doing wrong. But if it would have been Obama getting the shoe tossed at him it would have been different. They wouldnt have thought that was to funny. Even though that actually was illegal. Oh and dont forget all charges were droped on the case in Philadelphia. But im sure the liberal opinion on these law biding citizens is that they should be locked away.

    How many years ago was that?

    I happen to recall students being shot on campus for allegedly throwing rocks and having the conservative hawks wish they had shot more.

    I'd love to see some gun toters submit to being gunned down by the police for threatening the crowd by carrying offensive weapons.

    My opinion, anyone who carries a gun to a political rally no matter how "legal" is a whack job who demonstrates no responsibility.

    Responsibility which goes along with their supposed right to bear arms.

    That "right" is given "IN ORDER TO FORM A MILITIA". There is no militia there.

    Was that there right as it is the conservatives right to carry a firearm. if not the law should have provided security for the voters.

    hmmm because it takes one bullet to kill THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. and that's umm kinda major. Plus does two wrongs make it right. So it was ok for the Black panthers to intimidate voters as long as they had a licence to carry the Batons?

    What the Panthers did was illegal. What the people with firearms did was legal and one of their fundamental rights. That is why libs are so pizzed. They never took civics is school and learned the difference.

    Because you're allowed to carry firearms, but you're not allowed to brandish or display them in a threatening manner. And right-wing extremists that show up at a rally with the sole intent of disrupting it and scaring it's participants is very close.

    No uproar over Obama hiring ACORN and SEIU thugs to attend town meetings either.

    It's the intent involved in the action. Not the action. Stop trying to act as though it is an innocent action.

    Or union thugs beating up a old black man.
