Yah, that’s it, stick your finger into the beast’s eye, spread consternation and dismay among the untutored multitudes, brandish that gun out there like the wild west. I mean for the love of murk, here we are fighting for our lives on this gun control scam, wondering when the next school or movie massacre will put the final nail in the coffin they are making for the 2nd Ammendment, and we have hard heads trying to push the issue over the top with the “open carry” provocation.
What, the fact that Homeland Security, the IRS and any other institution taken over by leftist cadres is trying to tar the Tea Party movement as a dangerous terrorist outfit preparatory to a hoped for eventual round up into FEMA “Summer camps”, isn’t enough to counsel a bit of circumspection. You open carry hard heads sure you aren’t doing the Marxist in Chief’s social control dirty work for him?
The ONLY reason for open carry is to deliver a message. But the only message that’s going to propel yer average shopping mall pilgrim is to make a 911 call to report a man with a gun. Hey, how about some real fun and do the “open carry” thing in a bank or jewelry store. The risk of unpredictable reactions from everyone including people with a concealed carry license, and an absolute freaking ton of BAD PUBLICITY is very huge. The observational deficit that allows the open carry fanatics to think that their strategy is good for protection of the 2nd Amendment borders on being defined as developmentally challenged, and that’s me being polite. Let’s see if we can get our collective I.Q. back into the triple digit range.
Rifles slung across the back are not “brandished”, save in those states where the Law is an Ass.
Rights not used are lost.
A major purpose of open carry is to make it commonplace. A good goal is to make future generations wonder why an individual is NOT carrying.
“we have hard heads trying to push the issue over the top with the open carry provocation.”
Remember when gays were spreading AIDS everywhere and millions of people were being killed by their perversion? They didnt apologize, act contrite and stay silent. They went on the offensive DEMANDING MORE RIGHTS and SPECIAL PRIVILEGES. They broke into churches during mass and disrupted events held by their opposition. They were/are obnoxious but it was very effective. Now we have gay marriage which was unthinkable even a few years ago. What can we learn from this? If you think you are right, go on the offensive, be obnoxious, make DEMANDS for more rights, dont be happy that only some of your rights are being lost. Be an ACTIVIST, MAKE TROUBLE.
