That’s pretty much what is being purposed. The idea is a protest, not an armed take-over.

You are picking an unnecessary nit.

what is the protest? it sounds more like an exercise in free people doing what they are told to do.

What's your complaint with it beyond "don't tell me what to do"? Quit whining. You know d@mn well that standing before DC locked-and-loaded will lead to a repeat of the Bonus Army slaughter. If you have a viable complaint, fine; otherwise, realize there is a time & place for anarchy and such protests aren't it.

Then head on over there today and “carry what you want” as you imply. Tell us how it works out. Until then, quit whining and say something constructive.

Doing "something" is better than whining on the Intarwebs.

Get off your arse before complaining about what others are doing.

Lead or get out of the way...

I’m not complaining. I hope everyone has a nice outing. I just don’t see the point but i suppose that’s my shortcoming.

I pretty much carry what I want when I want and I don’t go out of my way to advertise it or seek approval.

I don't have any complaints. I'm just questioning the purpose. If that sounds like whining to you, ok.

Do not transport a loaded rifle or shotgun in any vehicle on any public street, road, or highway during this event.

That pretty much makes everybody not able to transport their firearms to the event.

Thats loaded not unloaded. You can transport 100-rifles as long as they're unloaded.

They went unarmed, just wanting to be paid the bonus they were promised for serving in WWI.

You know the Left will spin this as “the teabaggers are storming DC”.
