Tea Party protesters bring their big guns to protest rally

The Otero Tea Party Patriots and the newly formed Alamogordo Second Amendment Task Force held an anti-Obama protest rally on Saturday in Alamogordo New Mexico.

The rally appeared to be more of a second amendment rights rally than an anti Obama rally. Several hundred people, many carrying rifles and handguns, attended the 2-hour event. There were no reported incidents of violence.

Leslie Feilner, who recently moved to Alamogordo from Alaska with her husband, said about the .454 Taurus Casull that she was carrying, "It's a bear gun. We've never had to use it."

Feilner's English Pointer had a 9mm strapped to his side and a sign that read, "Bring it on, Obama." Feilner told reporters, "I'm a Christian and a peace-loving person, but I enjoy the right to buy and carry them."

Ron Browne of Alamogordo, who attended the event, said, "You have the guns. Eventually, you'll have the hate, then someone will actually take it one step further and try to hurt the president." Browne commented further, "Hate has to start somewhere and grow. This is it, right here. You're looking at it."

Jim Kizer, of Alamogordo, carried his .444 Marlin rifle and .41 Smith and Wesson Magnum pistol to the event.

"I don't like what the Democrats are doing to our country," said Kizer. "I'm a Korean vet and I grew up in Alaska during World War II. I've fought Communists all my life, and now our government is being taken over by them. That's why I'm here." Kizer commented further, "I'm not trying to start a war . . . I just want to make a point."

    Well, you know - the author has a point. The Bush years were oh, so hate-less, weren't they? Nothing but sweeteness and light from libs, eh? Never mind the film made calling for Bush's assasination. NEver mind al lthat 'Bushitler' stuff. Never mind the countless burnngs and hangings in effigy. Nope. Nothing to see here. Move along.

    Seriously, though - it is no exaggeration to say that the same ideas that have animated the 20th century’s worst mass murderers now have a happy home in the White House. Mao ornaments on the Whit House 'holiday tree' for crying out loud. Unrepentent Communists like Anita Dunn and Van Jones brought on to 'advise' the our Marxist meat puppet of a president.

    That's who we're dealing with today and that’s the pedigree of their ideas. The Constitution and the rule of law are just so much toilet paper to those who would rule us now.

    There is only one way this can end.

    I think Democrats should learn to read and research who they are voting for and then cut off their balls for being stupid. I was a Democrat all my life and now I'm ashamed to say it. Like the jews they are marching to the ovens and think it's a shower so they wil also burn their childern and grandchildren. They deserve everything they get , I on ly hope I'm around to say, I told you so, idiot, now cry.
