Just a matter of time

MANIFESTO

Item:
A man toting an assault rifle was among a dozen protesters carrying weapons while demonstrating outside President Obama's speech to veterans on Monday, but no laws were broken. It was the second instance in recent days in which weapons have been seen near presidential events ...

Arizona law has nothing in the books regulating assault rifles, and only requires permits for carrying concealed weapons. So despite the man's proximity to the president, there were no charges or arrests to be made. [Police spokesman Sgt. Andy] Hill said officers explained the law to some people who were upset about the presence of weapons at the protest.
This is really getting ridiculous—and scary.
