1. Almost all of them concealed and legal - its their right and their not making threats

5. I'm sure that will make the families of Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley, Kennedy quite comfortable.

Not to mention the other dozen or so Presidents that have been shot at.

Ahem...

:crazy: :crazy: :crazy:

21. OFFS

17. Yes, I believe that they're trying to intimidate.

I own several firearms but if I found myself in a dangerous profession, I'd get a conceal carry permit for a hand gun. I love my rifles in particular. However, I would not ever feel the need to sport one in public, perhaps that's because I don't need to compensate for a small dick. :evilgrin:

2. only to pop a cap in freeper's ass

22. I'll second that, right in the ass....nt

3. The gun debate is interesting on DU.

I almost always click on these threads.

[proud2BlibKansan]

4. 18% of 69 DUers.

Since there are well over 100,000 DUers, your conclusion is flawed :)

[onehandle]

6. 144,756 as of this post.

Now, quickly. Name them all!

;-)

[NYC_SKP]

15. "Of DUers who frequent the Gun Forum"...

The percentage could have been higher, but we're a reasonable group.

I voted, "no", because I don't carry at all.

[derby378]

7. I wouldn't

That's just not my style. Besides, there's enough cops, Secret Service agents, etc. to keep Obama safe without any help from yours truly. I'm strictly there to enjoy the speech and the company of my fellow Democrats.

8. Well of course...

You're clearly not...

:crazy:

[proud2BlibKansan]

11. Would you have taken a gun to a Bush event?

I keep remembering Camp Casey. No guns allowed. And I don't remember it being a problem. :shrug:

[derby378]

14. I would have stayed far away from a Bush event

I've protested a couple of appearances by Bush in Dallas, but always out in front of the hotel with a bunch of other Democrats. Never armed, though.

9. DU this poll!

[onehandle]

16. It's working! It's dropped to 17% of DUers would carry a gun to an Obama event!

:crazy:

Edited because as I said above, I forgot to add both numbers.

[liberal N proud]

10. FOX News is looking for a pollster

Only on FOX would 73 votes be a sample of the population.

[TheWraith]

12. I suspect that a lot of those are just contrarians who'd say anything against the grain. nt

20. Correct. The gutless RW in the Supreme court need to allow firearms in

federal buildings to include Congress? :evilgrin:

Yes, our chicken-shit blue dogs and republicans would piss their pants and pass a bill to reinstate the ban in record time.

No, RADICAL gun nuts, firearms are not allowed in federal buildings but you believe it's cool around our President.

18. Looks like the stupid has penetrated DU in a big way

Sad.

[baldguy]

19. Well it IS the gungeon after all.

Gun-worshipers are self-selected for the stupid.

[and-justice-for-all]

23. Probably, just to protect myself from the nuts...nt
