Armed Citizen Guards Anti-Obama Protestors

Full story here.

Mine and GAP's neck o' the woods.

Madge apparently made the decision to go armed after a previous anti-Obama protest involved the white protestors being threatened by an armed black male. Doesn't mean the encounter was based purely on racial differences, but hey, this IS Georgia....

If I recall correctly the black male was like 82 and needed to carry around some kind of oxygen tank. So while race may or may not have been a factor like Rah45 mentioned. It could also be that he is getting senile.

 . . . or race could have been a factor I mean the guy is like 82 so he has probably seen some shit. Not that that gives him an excuse.




BTW anyone else think the rocket jockey was a tool. "As long as the law doesnt have problem with it. I don't have a problem with it."

Exactly. I thought about posting something sympathetic regarding the age of the man and his condition, but then considered that an anti-gunner would completely ignore those facts and would just concentrate on the fact that some "Tea Party terrorist" pulled a gun on the peaceful pro-Obama demonstrators. So I didn't see any point in sympathy.

Yep. I wonder how many other interviews the reporter gave before he settled on that guy? At least they didn't make Madge look like  .
