The bitch is people who don't use their first amendment rights sensibly.

The problem is BOTH sides will blame the other and the rift continues and the violence will escalate

I would hope that it would contribute to ending the hostile and violent rhetoric in politics.

I have seen no example of anyone playing with guns in any of those pictures you posted.

Looks like nothing more than people exercising their First Amendment rights and saying what they believe. No harm in that.
