The comments are also of some interest.

We are no longer United as a nation.

And so, maybe its time the liberals had their socialistic society and the remainder had our freedom.

I cannot believe you actually read the NYT's. Personally I've had enough of the lies and misinformation the NYtimes spues. If I recall correctly the NYTimes is/was almost bankrupt.

This article is nothing more than a left wing loon that goes by the name of frank rich writing about a man exercising his US Constitution rights.

I see nothing scary in that, then again I'm not a left-wing lib that uses the American Flag as a door mat or the US Constitution as toilet paper.

Maybe the current socialist leadership should appoint another czar to look into this 2nd Amendment thing.

The people should never be afraid of their government, ever.

I was not there at the time this gentleman was photographed sporting an M-4, but had I been I would have been packing also, except mine would have been concealed.

Am I too a nut?

frank rich , you're a spineless coward that does not deserve the freedoms that good men have died defending....

Remember - it's an opinion piece - not a news article - and this guy obviously speaks from the same orifice in which his head appears to be so firmly implanted.

Cheeze, I thought what was interesting: the palpable fear that Mr. Rich was alluding to, the threat of freedom if you will. That said, I try to read everything and then, hopefully form an opinion, which usually is unwelcome among those who tolerate; either out of love or social kindness, my company.

I will take offense anytime some idiot calls someone a "nut" just because they are exercising their Constitutional rights.

You remember playing cops and robbers and shooting each other with a pointy stick in the playground? Banned.

You remember your friends bringing their guns to school to go hunting later that day or were hunting the morning, Banned.

Now if you wear a tee-shirt or draw a picture with a gun on it your kicked out of school.

I've had enough of the lib cowards and their comments. I for one would stand by the "nut" on the street to the death. I will always attempt to stand up for what I think is right.

I think I'll go and find him and buy him lunch as I sure as hell don't fear him.
