During a roundtable discussion on Friday, Fox News’ Lou Dobbs agreed with a network contributor who argued that Americans need to access military-style assault weapons to protect themselves from an Iranian invasion.
“What scares the hell out of me we have a president, as we were discussing during break, that wants to take away our guns, but yet he wants to attack Iran and Syria. So if they come and attack us here, we don’t have the right to bear arms under this Obama administration,” Angela McGlowan, a former lobbyist for News Corp., said in the midst of a conversation about violence in Syria.
Dobbs quickly agreed, adding, “we’re told by Homeland Security that there are already agents of Al Qaeda here working in this country. Why in the world would you not want to make certain that all American citizens were armed and prepared? ” Watch it:

it just burns. 
I think Pox hires people who use what they sit on to think with. 
Did anyone warn them about all the closed control towers? 
I think a lot of children have fantasies about bravely defending themselves and their families and their towns from the "bad guys." In the 50s with McCarthyism it was the COMMIES! and that probably lasted into the late 80s. I guess the kids nowadays have found some new boogeymen.
When I was a kid my plan was to use my big brother's shotgun from the commanding position of my upstairs bedroom window.
