This has been a long time coming. The open carry laws have been modified by the legislature and signed by the (democrat) Governor. The police need to learn what the law actually says.

What do “Oath Keepers” have in common with Marxist-Commie Black “supremacists”?

Carry a printed copy of the statute in question. Hand it to any investigating officer. Remind him or her that if they make an arrest after being informed of the law they lose their indemnity and can be prosecuted criminally and sued civilly.

I understand the point but wouldn’t it be better to arm the business owners and at risk residents than the enemy?

What is the goal of the OK’s?

1. Show that police will not shoot armed black people?

2. Protect protestors from the gangsters?

Black is white. And white is black.

Or so the article says.

Good move. Time to put police on notice that all citizens have rights and those nights include being armed. Maybe the police will be a little less trigger happy if they know the citizenry are armed.

This could get interesting, or it could fizzle out. I’m leaning fizzle.

This is extremely unwise. They are talking about giving rifles to people who regularly chant kill the police, stop traffic at every opportunity and have poor impulse control, evidenced over and over.

There were five shootings in 30 hours there in an area quarter mile square.

Now the Oathkeepers to prove they aren’t racist are going to lead a march through the streets, again blocking streets, illegally, while supporting the cause of a violent robbery suspect who tried to kill a police officer?

How will the screen those who they give weapons to? How will they account for them during and after the march? What will they do when those weapons get stolen. use the police they are trying to intimidate to help them find the weapons they handed out?

When NAACP handed out cameras to the citizens of St. Louis to film the police, those cameras wound up on pawn shops.
Those rifles will be stolen, count on it.

All it would take would be one accidental discharge and the rounds would be flying. The majority of people who would be killed would be black. The Oathkeepers would then be labeled as racists who used black citizens as proxies for their anti-government stance. The alternative media would scream it was the police that shot first and then we have a good old fashioned insurrection on our hands.

The Oathkeepers don’t understand they are not and will not be in charge of this march. Have they given any thought to handing guns out to people who have a penchant from blocking and intimidating motorists? People are going to start running them over, shooting first or the police will. Citizens cannot create armed roadblocks and expect the police to stand by.

This action will set the gun rights movement back, not enhance it.
