Nothing makes the idiots more hysterical than guns.

On Anderson Cooper Reagan (not Ronald) was freaking out because a man at the St. Louis town hall meeting (I believe it was St. Louis meeting) had a hand gun that fell out of his coat. The lady sitting opposite him basically said so what.

I’m thinking that more of us need to do this. Two major reasons. First, as a show of force against the union thugs so they wont do something stupid. Second, constantly freak out the MSM and get them to report over and over again ... as you know they will, so that he population becomes desensitized to firearm carry.

Maybe so, but the fact that carrying a weapon openly is legal does not mean it is a sensible thing to do. At this time sending the message conveyed by the firearm is not productive and helps the left in stereotyping our opposition as being right wing militia types. We have to know who the auduence is, and how our actions will be perceived. Right now momentum is on our side.Giving the opposition the chance to portray us through their prism is not helpful.

Video is posted at MSNBC. When it first went up, it started with coverage of the guy/gun/sign. That was apparently too scary as that footage has now been cut from the beginning of the clip.
