Wow. That's one hell of a leap there.

I think it's just fine that someone carries a gun in an area near the President which even the Secret Service doesn't have a problem with, ergo, I think it'd be hunky dory if someone shot the President. You got into law school?

Yes, I got into law school. And your point? Don't sit there and act like your attitude doesn't give one the impression that you don't much care of something happens to Obama. Whether you agree with his politics or not, any citizen should be concerned about potential violence towards a sitting President because of the consequences.

And just because the Secret Service doesn't have a problem with it does not mean it is okay or should be allowed. There have been incidents over the years that show questionable decisions made by the secret service with respect to security for their protectees.

Why do you even bother responding? She just seems to like making extreme statements to get under people's skin.

I think you may have a point.

It isn't about "getting under people's skin." I'm simply calling it like I see it.

And it is hypocrisy isn't it? To do the very thing you accuse me of doing?

No, it's not. I haven't accused you of doing anything. I have accused KSigKid of doing what you said you were doing -- calling it like he sees it.
