Eh. I am not enamored with the writer of the article. There are others praising his plan with just a few questions on points they want elaborated. I know you do not like him, but it is not a bad plan and some of his ideas are really spot on.

Some interesting points about his gun plan:
Donald Trump’s mixed gun platform
I actually like his plan...especially the 50 state carry part. I also don't think many of the other republican candidates would have much different plans.ShoeDiva date=1442708771 said:Eh.

The 50 carry part is needed. It is absolutely ridiculous that if you take a car trip some of the states you drive through you could wind up in big trouble.cptlo306 date=1442710211 said:I actually like his plan...especially the 50 state carry part.

I do not understand what difference it makes what the man's name is to anyone, but maybe the man and his friends. He was at a town hall meeting and expressed his opinion through his comments and question. I am not so sure that I would think that my question or comments would be news or make headlines and that guy should not be crucified in the press for his opinion as a private citizen. (I am saying that whether I agree with his statement or not, and whether he was a "plant" as mentioned or not. He is still a private citizen that was just asking a question/making a statement.)
So your (general) right to know who this is, trumps (<<<see that) his right to being a private citizen asking a question? It makes no difference in the big picture of who this guy is, works for, or supports. I would rather people be able to ask questions and voice their opinions to possible Presidential candidates without worry of press fallout if their question or comment becomes a sound bite or happens to be picked up by the press where they no longer a private citizen, but a late night joke.

How do we know this guy is even a Trump supporter ? ? ?
Perhaps he is a Clinton or Bush campaign operative ? ? ?
His identity makes a world of difference to the story.

HB what if this guy is just a guy? Not a plant, or an "operative"? What then? Oops sorry you are being harassed, made to look like an :neenerbutt and the :neenerbutt of late night. :dunnohoneybunny date=1442945496 said:When you ask a question in a public forum and that question becomes newsworthy,

The identity of this man is central to the story, because he is being portrayed by the hack media
as emblematic of Trump's supporters. If he is a troll, that changes the entire focus of the story.
The truth matters...

You are correct. Like you said, we knew all about Joe "the plumber" Wurzelbacher within days after he asked Obama about his small business tax policy because he was interested in purchasing a small business. The MSM dug up every thing they could on him because it his comments made Obama look foolish to small business owners with his "spread the wealth around" comment. So if the MSM would dig up every thing they could on Joe, why not the guy in the Trump t-shirt? I strongly suspect the guy was a plant.honeybunny date=1442945496 said:ShoeDiva date=1442944127 said:So your (general) right to know who this is, trumps (<<<see that) his right to being a private citizen asking a question?
