The Associated Press reports that there were about 12 people with guns outside President Obama’s event today (Monday) in Phoenix, AZ.
CNN reports that two men bore assault rifles.
The incident marks the third in a week in which guns have been linked to an Obama event
Do others find this as seriously disturbing as I do?
I know that AZ law permits such behavior. That’s not the point. Why do these people feel the need to show up at a political event as public as a presidential visit and display their firearms? What are they trying to communicate? Why do they feel as though they must resort to such means to do so?
Explanations?
