I agree with you, and I believe that our rights under the 2nd Amendment should be protected and not ignored. There will be a follow up post on this issue.

Being one of the gun owning protesters I would like to make my reasoning clear. If it were not for the second amendment we would not have the freedoms we do now, as well things like the republican round ups would not be. To be ignored as we were in requests for a different gun friendly location just brushed off. Sounds like something the Obama administration and the rest of the Democrats would do. Before I go into my second issue I would like to bring up the fact of the many gun owners present and armed, there were no shots fired, or negligent discharges. As a matter of fact we made sure all rules of the law were obeyed and conducted ourselves in a responsible manner.
In saying this we all should agree that drinking alcohol and guns don’t mix, but do politics, promises and many of the attending drivers of the round up? I would not want a drunk general’s calling the shots in a war. I would not want a drunken president with his finger on the button, or fighter pilots to drunk to fly a mission, and the same could be said about the voting public. Far more alcohol related issues in this country from drunken driving deaths and injuries, mean abusive behavior from alcohol consumption, as well as many other affects alcohol can have on a family.
Is it truly responsible to ignore our rights under the constitution for a pleasure that causes so much more damage?
The Republicans need to get back to their roots, or the next time the Democrats take over it could be far worse than what we are seeing now.
