At least two men were spotted carrying assault rifles outside Obama's speech.
(CNN) At least two Arizona men brought assault rifles to President Obamas speech Monday to the annual Veterans of Foreign Wars convention in Phoenix.
CNNs Ed Henry reported that one of the men was carrying an AR-15 assault rifle and shouted anti-Obama slogans. The men remained outside the convention center where the president was speaking. Henry said U.S. Secret Service and local police were "very much aware" of the situation and were paying close attention to the men.
However, Arizona is an open-carry state, meaning it's legal to carry firearms in public as long as they are visible.

The vet snipers had the Obongo snipers covered, no problem. A Molan Labe (Come and Take Them) moment.
I doubt that those are assault rifles, but the numskulls at CNN don't know the difference.
