PHOENIX, Arizona (CNN) -- 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.

Heck, all guns brought to protests qualify. What would be the point? To intimidate your opposition? Grow up and stop playing schoolyard bully.

And bringing them with you while you protest the President? Really fuckin' smart, genius. Congrats on your interview with the Secret Service, they just love people who go heavily armed in the vicinity of the first black President.

Legal? You bet. Idiotic? Damn straight.
