There May Be Gun-Toters at Presidential Events, But At Least Our Airplanes Are Safe From Toothpaste Tubes

Apparently people, most recently in Arizona and New Hampshire, like to bring guns to see President Obama because it’s, you know, their Second Amendment right or whatever, yee-haw:

“Phoenix cops said no arrests were made because those holding guns — an increasing sight at Obama events — didn’t need permits.”

My girlfriend had her Caudalie eye cream thrown out at the airport because it was >4oz. I replaced it at $75. Yet this winner has an assault rifle within sight of the leader of the free world. I’m stuck wondering who the biggest @sshole is? Me, Sgt. Slaughter in the picture, or the legislature of AZ?

This is a major fail. The president commands certain exception to the law, all related to national security (not getting head and being able to lie about it). If Obama were killed, it could have incredible impacts to our national security including economy, foreign policy, etc. That being said, go have your gun slinging protest at the Arizona Capital, not at a presidential town hall.  Do you need an automatic weapon to protect yourself? Probably only to protect yourself against idiots like yourself.

Toothpaste? THREAT TO NATIONAL SECURITY. Assault rifle at a presidential event? Eh, whatever.

Is it churlish of me when I see gun-toting nuts at these events to think to myself, “What a tiny, tiny penis that poor man must have”?

Now for more kids with guns:
