• We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.
  • The forum will be down for about an hour this weekend for maintenance. I apologize for the inconvenience.

I voted no because you never know when a gun is going to spontaneously jump out of the holster while the owner isn't looking and sneak off to wreck havoc across the county.

Just kidding, I voted "yes" as well. A Constitutional right remains a Constitutional right even when the One is present.

A point about the assassin comment. If a guy is going to assassinate the president, do we really think that he is going to be giving himself away before he has the chance to accomplish his plan? I think not. The media comes up with to many straw man arguments to remain credible with those who think for themselves.

Yes. I was not trying to imply that they mishandled MtnJack's situation. Only that it was an event from which they had time to learn, look into the legal angles, and so forth.
