Armed Intimidation Of "Mom's Demand --" In Dallas Not Acceptable Behavior.

The police should have been called and the perpetrators ordered to disperse. They have not right to use their weapons in such a way.
If this kind of action becomes the new norm we are in trouble as a country.

During our anti recall efforts in Colorado recently a couple of gun support groups from the southern part of the state showed up and harassed one of our demonstrators to the point that the local police had to be called. One of our political operatives was nearly assaulted by a person with a long police record.

The recall effort is more about guns. It is also about white supremacy and tea bagger ideas which are anti government and anti democracy. These recalls are an abuse of the system.

The recoilers view ANY restriction of their imagined gun rights as CRIMINAL. That logic is their reason for the recalls we have faced and will face here. They are claiming that us protesters are "brown shirts" denying them their rights and are suppressing the voters who might want to sign the recall. We are the criminal element.

Based on what I am seeing we are beyond debate and are almost on a war like footing now. When these gun nuts feel the they have to show up armed in protest for an opposition meeting something is terribly wrong.

They have no comprehension of what's in the Constitution or what it means. They are a disgrace to the flag they are waving around.

All they have is intimidation.

"A Well regulated militia"?

Yeah...I feel safer.

Found another pic of the (Mensa) meeting. Nothing like a day out with the kiddies.

you have to wonder about gun people who think they are above the law or are to fucking stupid not to know the law.

It is becoming very clear that the RKBA applies to white folk...conservative, christian white folk.

They know the law, and they know it doesn't apply to them.

White with a gun = responsible citizen enjoying their god-given freedom.

Non-white with a gun (or any object that may be construed as such) = dead.
