Travel icon Arthur Frommer says he won't be spending his tourism dollars at the Grand Canyon, or anywhere else in Arizona, because the state's laws allow people he described as "thugs" and "extremists" to openly carry firearms.
The author of budget-travel guides said on his blog Wednesday that he was "shocked beyond measure" by reports that protesters openly carried guns and rifles outside a Phoenix building where President Barack Obama spoke on Monday.
Frommer says he won't personally travel in a state where civilians carry loaded weapons as a means of political protest.

No, when they have complete and utter control sycops like him really won’t be needed. Consider him one of the first for the disolving vats when they start making soylent green.

Guess he’s going to avoid most of the United States then, because most States allow open carry.

Every day is a total surprise to Herr Frommer. He's been to and through Virginia many times, and not once did he notice that we can walk around with firearms ~ WITHOUT PERMITS ~ wherever we wish.
Even Obama comes over here regularly, and buses in crowds from Maryland, for propaganda shows.
There's much less chance of getting shot down like a dog in Virginia than in Maryland where they have the sort of gun controls Herr Frommer would like to see imposed on law-abiding people.

Yet another member of the Statist nomenclatoura spews. Or, could it be that he is ignorant of the requirements of liberty and what history has shown is required to keep it? He would probably like North Korea in either case.

An inordinate amount of the crime is commited by blacks, most of it against other blacks. But considering all crime versus the number of guns, a statistican would inform us that ‘’statistically’’ the amount of crime is zero. We’re a much more law-abiding people than the bueaucrats and commies will have us believe.

NC has a law about carrying a firearm to the “terror of the public”. This means if any old biddy sees your weapon and gets scared, you can be charged. Was even cautioned in my CCW class to use a holster and method of concealment that won’t let anyone see I am carrying at all, otherwise the law can be applied.

That's ok, I have chosen to avoid or skirt states in my travels that don't honor Texas' CHL. There's a lot more of people like me than this douche.
I also make it a point to tell my local businesses that post a 30.06 (no CCWs) sign that I choose to do business elsewhere SPECIFICALLY because of that.
