Democrats Afraid of People Carrying Firearms at the Presidential Inauguration
ByFiled under “This person got elected?” comes the UPI story about delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton from D.C. Norton thinks that people will misunderstand the recent change in the Department of the Interior policy that allows citizens to carry a concealed firearm if it is allowed under the local jurisdiction’s laws. Norton is afraid that normally law abiding citizens will carry a concealed firearm to the inauguration. D.C. does not allow citizens to carry a concealed firearm, so under the current policy, no citizen is allowed to carry a concealed firearm at the inauguration.
Since someone who would do harm to the president is a criminal, and criminals by definition do not obey the laws, it would seem that Norton is only worried about stupid, but law abiding, citizens. That’s kind of funny because I am worried about stupid politicians.

Thanks for stopping by and posting.
You are right: not all Democrats are anti-gun. However, the Democrats leading your party are. I hope that you are working to change your political party’s view of civil rights and one day all Americans can support the right to keep and bear arms.
