They also claim that he said he was against healthcare. Not true! There is also a second video of this man. He is shown at the end, clearly chanting “healthcare now” with the pro socialism crowd.

We really need to get this out there. CNN is already using this guy as a right wing poster child.

We got 'em on the run.

Maybe Conservatives demonstrators should carry weapons at the demonstrations,

Presstitute in the WORST way!

To boot, he does no have a thumb strap on that sidearm holster, which, in a large crowd, should be a minimum safety consideration.

I’m particularly fond of the fact that AR has a collapsible stock, hi-cap mag, and it appears to have a flash suppressor or something on the muzzle... all things demonized by the left as constituting an “assault weapon.”

Good for him being a black man toting a gun, and despite his politics, he is permitted to tote whatever he wants. It is STILL a free country.

He is with a group of pro-Obama union folks

I cant watch the video at work, do they tell you he is with the Pro Obama supporters or just a protester?

Prolly thinks he can scare some “righties” out of an aggressive pro-2nd stance. May not even be ammo in the gun.

On the slight chance he actually does want a shooting war, the righties have it way over him.

Phoenix police Detective J. Oliver, who monitored the man at the downtown protest, said police also wanted to make sure no one decided to harm him.

Uh, WHAT!! So the cop was concerned that some bright bulb might go up to the guy with the rifle over his shoulder and the gun strapped to his waist and DO HIM INJURY??!! Now THAT’S funny! The cops time might have been better spent protecting the UNARMED people from ACORN/UNION thugs!

If he is on own side why can he be seen in the video shouting “health care now”?

2nd video

"Paul Helmke, president of the Washington, D.C.-based Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, said people should not be allowed to bring guns to events where Obama is.

"To me, this is craziness," he said. "When you bring a loaded gun, particularly a loaded assault rifle"


Whoever said the guns were actually loaded?

On the other hand, while I get they're point, these folks may be pushing the envelope a little bit........

Thats only what it appears. We can’t actually hear what he said. He, however, was there with a dozen members of the Arizona Shooters board to protest Zer0. He has been identified as Chris B by members of that board. If you see the gent with the bullhorn on the sidewalk near him, you will see that he has the Obama Joker face on the back of his head. So the protestors were intermingled.
