“Of course I carry a gun,” Washington said.

I'm going to assume that the lawyer (others?) is not a sworn law-enforcement officer. How is he (they?) getting away with carrying, presumably, into the govt building?

Let's not begrudge them for having their Rights upheld (we hope but doubt they are upheld on a proper basis).

Let us object to having our Rights withheld/suppressed/taken away...which is unjust.
