Former Arkansas Governor and current Republican dark horse candidate for President Mike Huckabee's son has been arrested for trying to board an airplane with a gun in his carry-on. He has a concealed-carry permit for the weapon. He was fined and given probation with a one-year suspended sentence. Reuters reports:

It's always the hateful, vile rightwingnuts who assassinate people on the left.
Not able to win on their merits, the nutjobs feel the need to resort to violence.
So sick of them and their bullshit, and equally sick of the fools who follow these tools.
Who needs repeats of A&E's An Evening at the Improv when you have ol' Huckabee being timely and topical with all the humor we ALL want to hear?
Actually, I heard that, upon further investigation, the loud noise was George Bush trying to hide from a newspaper. "NOOO! ME NO LIKEY WORDS! READING WORDS TOO HARD!!! MOMMMMAAAA! I MADE A BOOM-BOOM!"
Of course, that joke's about our President, a solemn and respectable man. So it's not funny. No matter how f*cking stupid he really is.
Funny, I don't seem to remember my scripture quite the same as the Huckster.
...didja see what I did there???
You are no Christian.
You are a sad excuse for a human.
(edit)
Oh and huckabee, go cheney yourself.
It wouldn't surprise me at all if the KKK, Republican party made that happen. Obama is such a threat to them they will do anything to get him out of the race. If something does happen we all will know who did it! Makes you wonder who committed all the other assassinations of our great men and leaders.
i'm going to practice my positivity now and say nothing.
I am worried about this country.
What is it with right wingers making gun jokes?
Isn't this like the 3rd or 4th gun "funny" in the last few months?
.
You gotta wonder, how this sizes up with an innoncent statement like saying, "When people are disappointed, they tend to cling to the things that are familiar that make them feel safe."
Huck Finn is weak!
"I know a few things about guns, and you don't point guns at people unless you mean to shoot them." -JA
both of you -- stop bragging.
what I wanna know is... after charlton heston died... did anyone pry the gun from his cold dead fingers??
.
As far as a VP choice, who would folks rather have . . . Mitt Romney??
As far as less government and less regulation .....HEY MFer then explain your position on abortion and gay marriage? Is it the government's role to regulate that you f'ing hypocrite?
Sen. Obama need to really watch his back, I think Sen. Obama is a great American hero, a man who is willing to put his life on the line to try and save America from people who has been destorying our great country for the past 7 yrs.
I'd say the NRA doesn't mind arming criminals, terrorists and other assholes like Huckabeee, wouldn't you? People in the white supremicist movement can have their guns, too, according to those fools. Perhaps Huckabee is wishing they take his hint...
McCain might as well hang it up because he will never get elected. Everytime he tries to distance himself with Bush, he runs with arms open into Bush's arms.
I think the Republicans can kiss the seats that are up in the next election GOODBYE! The true Conservatives are scratching their heads wondering what happened to their party. All they have to do is look at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. for their answer.
Boy the History books are going to show Bush and his cronies as the worst ever in the history of the United States. I guess if he wanted to go down in the history books...he will but not in the way he wanted.
When a major political figure and religious figure, and yes he counts, makes jokes about assasinating his rivals it equates to a terrorist threat. Send him straight to Gitmo and run him through the "enemy cleric" program.
Being forced to wipe his rear with pages of the Koran is really going to burn him.
"During my speech at the N.R.A., a loud noise backstage, that sounded like a chair falling, distracted the crowd and interrupted my speech. I made an off hand remark that was in no way intended to offend or disparage Sen. Obama. I apologize that my comments were offensive. That was never my intention."
Okay, here's what I don't get: of what state of mind do you have to be that the first thing that you associate with the sound of a chair falling over is the other party's nominee stumbling away trying to escape being shot? There are at least three synaptic jumps I'm missing of how chair noise -> obama being shot
Here's what they remember: Roosevelt and Truman had the same basic policy agenda. Roosevelt had charisma, Truman did not. Roosevelt won four straight elections handily, had huge majorities in congress, passed tons of liberal legislation and reshaped America forever into something more liberal than they could ever live with. Truman barely won one election. Barely.
So the Thugs know - charsima is everything. And Obama could take everything from them.
This is dog whistle politics people.
Some where out there in the weeds is a white conservative working class three-named (lee harvey/James earl ....) somebody with a chip on his shoulder, a grudge, and wanting to make a name for himself.
Believe you me, Obama has a target on his back, and he better be wearing kevlar underwear. Becaues sometime between now and January 20th, at least one person will take a crack at him. It happened to every charismatic liberal since 1930: Roosevelt, JFK, RFK, MLK, and Walter Reuther (not charismatic but very effective - died in masterious plane crash).
These people have little to lose - they just blow the dog whistle and some loser will come out of the wood works.
I think there's a 95% chance Obama is nominated, 85% elected, and 50% chance of some kind of attempt on his life (be it guns, poison, plane crash, whatever) between now and January.
