Black man brings AR-15 semi-automatic weapon to Obama event (Video)

August 19th, 2009 / By Ray Founder/CEO Of Whatspoppin.n

A man toting an assault rifle was among a dozen protesters carrying weapons while demonstrating outside President Obama"s speech to veterans on Monday, but no laws were broken. It was the second instance in recent days in which weapons have been seen near presidential events.

Video from the protest in Phoenix, Arizona, shows the man standing with other protesters, with the rifle slung over his right shoulder.

Phoenix police said authorities monitored about a dozen people carrying weapons while peacefully demonstrating.

Here is an interview with him from a lady in the crowd who feels really uncomfortable with him having the semi-automatic weapon displayed.

Be mindfull of the Jedi Mind Tricks being played here.... The Press is attempting to alarm the public that the President is in some potential danger....and that our right to bear arms, our legal right to carry a gun, puts people like the President in danger.Don't buy into this - the potential subsequent events that could follow are scarry.What happens if the President gets shot?By someone who everyone recognized as carrying a gun because it was his legal right?The mind games that the elite plays is to get the public to beg for them to reduce and or eliminate our liberties.Do not be fooled.

Fuck you AJ Guns should be banned!!! This country would be alot safer if we could get these fucking guns off the streets. And don't preach to me about civil liberties Jedi mind tricks. The reality of the matter is this guy brought a machine gun to a peacefull event. What purpose does that serve? Carrying a gun for the sake of carrying a gun is ignorant. Worms like you are why there are too many guns on the streets and why innocent people lose their lives everyday. This is the only country in the world where people die from gunshots at such an alarming rate. Do your homework and compare America's statistics to other countries. And if you come to the same conclusion it only means ignorance is bliss. Go eat a dick!!
