Please... go to his Facebook page and read the "real" comment that he posted on that pic. There's more to it than the media is saying.

Here's the whole, "unedited for liberal media" version:

"Many people in Tennessee keep asking me about my opinion on Second Amendment rights. Apparently Tennesseans are part of that crazy crowd that Obama says "cling to their religion and guns." Well, then I must be part of that crazy crowd. Here is something that I usually have with me. Welcome to Tennessee Mr. Obama, where we appreciate our 2nd Amendment rights and the Constitution that was wisely given to us by our founding fathers."

reading the comments at KNS shows how narrow minded people are around there. I doubt any of them actually read the entire quote.

The usuals there seemed more concerned that the guy was threatening to kill our president. Laughable.

of course.

It's from the that paper in Nashville, and KNS.

Me, I hope it turns viral, and I hope he gets a million "likes" on FB.

With all my FB content, I guess I'll never be a viable candidate for anything (other than "right-wing loon")

That's the special, emergency use version. It only fires once.

I thought the same thing.

If they can't even get that right....

The comments after the article are disturbing - social confusion and ignorance seems to be rabid.

[Mr. Brooks]

Good for him. I just went to his facebook page and liked his comment.

He's getting my vote. Of course just about anything running against Cooper gets my vote. But this guy gets it enthusiastically.

I wish I could give him my vote.

This was on the 5pm news. I don't do Facebook.

Kind odd that he posted the picture of the Colt 1911 upside down. Just my opinion, maybe that is a signal of Distress.

Glad I voted for him in the Primary Election. I'm extremely tired of Cooper.
