4. I Think You're NUTS to want him to walk the parade - He's an open target the whole way.

Given the bile, open hate, and record number of death threats it's nuts for him to walk that route. Especially given the extra added gun nut furor lately.

I hope he stays in the limo but you'll probably get your wish. He'll walk it as a symbol of not being afraid or cowed by the crazies.
