Unfortunately it is becoming more the norm than the exception. It care be a curse to be intelligent, said with smile.

They don't have jobs. They can't afford a gun, or a car.

EVERY Liberal I know owns several, I probably own as many if not more than you do, and every bit as well trained and proficient in there use.
I am sure in some areas of the country most people do not own firearms, Lib and Con alike, but that is not the case where I live.

Nope, just stating the fact that many Libs are no different from Cons when it comes to the 2nd A.

I was referring to this:

"every bit as well trained and proficient in there use."

But, yeah Liberals are way different that Conservatives when it comes to 2A.

A former high school teacher is in custody after reportedly brandishing a gun at a "Families Belong Together" immigration rally on Saturday.

Al.com reports that Shane Ryan Sealy, 34, is being charged with menacing and reckless endangerment after brandishing a firearm at protestors in Huntsville, Ala.

The news outlet reports that Sealy came to the demonstration, which protested against President Trump's immigration policies, as a counter-protestor.
========================================
MAGA includes arming yourself when going to a rally that you don't agree with.

He was arrested for possessing a firearm within 1,000 feet of the protest. So I guess we dont live in a free country where you have the right to bear arms. Technically he didnt endanger anyone, any more than police do when they unholster their weapon. He may even have felt threatened by whoever he was arguing with. If not, its certainly wrong to imply a threat.

So you've demonstrated.
"MAGA includes arming yourself when going to a rally that you don't agree with."
I hadn't heard that MAGA includes even GOING to a rally you don't agree with.
That's purely a province of the Left .. you know, the Waters doctrine.
And there's also ...

13. "Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it."

He may not be alone but antifa is 100% about counter-protesting often resorting to violence in the process since they are for (pro?) absolutely nothing.

you said, "That's why most Liberals don't own guns."

so, what is a 'liberal?'

go ahead; don't be afraid ..........

Please show where I defended them? I look forward to your evidence....
 
Two wrong dont make a right. Lets stick to the topic, which is THIS incident. I think we would all agree that brandishing a weapon over a political disagreement is not ok. What I find interesting is the city has a law about simple possession of a weapon, in public, if there happens to be a protest nearby.

I think that being an idiot in general can be said as not being smart by definition.
