Guns at Protests? Not the First Time

Via Newsbusters
we saw at the Texas Republican Convention members of a group called the New Black Panther Party carrying guns on the streets of Houston, protesting the Republican Convention.

And you know what? It's perfectly legal. Welcome to George Bush's America, right, Farai?


Just like w/ the "Obama Joker" poster, the whole situation is nothing more than the attempts to generate controversy and hysteria.

Heh, and the irony is, there were countless liberals/totalitarians/authoritarians claiming that "we never saw such naked agression with firearms during Bush's administration!" Never mind that the guy was not aggressive, and never mind that we actually did...

Didn't those fellows at Lexington and Concord bring guns to their protests? I mean, it does seem to have happened before in this country, and not just recently either.
