1. How is a protest of 15 people even newsworthy?

I've been to protests bigger than that that didn't even get a peep on the evening news.

12. Because according to the media, a gathering of two or more conservatives is a "show of force"

But hundreds of thousands of liberals on the streets is just a small footnote by some hippies trying to get attention.

You know, it is the liberal bias in the media at work, don't cha know?

These people are allowed to vote.

8. these "people" also carry loaded weapons

to state national parks, restaurants, and bars (at least here in the south they do).

Let's not forget that the museum shooter was a huge Palin fan. It's all starting to make sense now.

The Republicans took funding away from state mental institutions so that they could get some voters. These folks are now "out" in public, and attending Palin rallies without medication.

There's nothing worse than a knuckles dragging on the ground, off-their meds moron filled with rage Palin fan (oops, that was redundant) with a weapon.

9. It's kind of stupid to assume they're all armed. They're New Yorkers.

There, I made a broad, sweeping, statement, too. :bounce:

17. okay....

not sure I'm on the same page with you -- but I live in the south, and here anyone can carry a loaded weapon into a bar, restaurant, etc. They tend to also vote Republican and be Palin fans. It's just a demographic.

They are also fox viewers, and very angry white people who feel they're rights as white people are under attack.

these people at this rally, though they had no accent, reminded me of what I see here daily. Not a comfort and I'm not going to apologize for making a sweeping statement re these people. Janet N. already did that, and it turns out, they should have been apologizing to her!

Stay clear of Palin fans. That's all I'm sayin':-)

10. So do a lot of liberals.

Gun ownership and concealed carry aren't reserved for Republicans.

15. I own a gun:-)

My point, though perhaps not well stated, was that these people mix gun ownership with the kind of vile, misinformed rage we see here.

It's not comforting.

16. I agree.

But they ARE separate issues. Unfortunately, many here seem to have a problem differentiating.

18. oh, heck yeah - they are separate

UNTIL a bunch of insane righties start shooting up this country like they have been recently.

I don't mean the gun issue is no longer a separate issue, but rather that the extreme right (who tend to be Palin fans) and misuse of guns go together like chocolate and peanut butter.

I think of one, and the other follows.

11. "I dunno, I just watch Fox News..."

"Go home and look after your children"

"Socialism..." (And that has to do with what?)

These Palin supporters certainly do have an ugly spirit!

19. "socialism" is a code word for kkk enthusiasts

as is "commie".

It means: someone who supports Jews, blacks, etc.

I just read this the other day and suddenly the Palin rallies made a lot more sense to me.

22. Over the top

First speaker in the clip:

"Everyone in the country is very, very frustrated and upset that he was allowed to make a rape joke..."

Misrepresent much?

Also, rightwing hatred about subjects not even related to the issue were spouted out by these people:

"Close the borders!"

"You think you're so smart!" (Now that's mature!)

Now I can't get these images and the phrase "Ugly Americans" out of my mind...
