Seriously, you OC guys need to rethink your strategy.

SFN, I'm glad you got your permit back, but I hope you realize that you are doing more to harm open-carry in this state than any bad sheriff could ever imagine. Supposedly the goal of open carry is to introduce people to, and get them comfortable with the idea of responsible people carrying firearms. All you are doing is alienating and pissing off the very people you're trying to win over.

You guys need an actual strategy that doesn't involve the idea "I CAN CARRY 18 GUNS TO A PETTING ZOO BECAUSE ITS MY RIGHT" if you want to actually accomplish your intended goals.

If your purpose is activism, discretion is the better part of valor.
Dan, with all due respect, I disagree.

First, it's a LTCF, not a permit, (pet peeve), OC'ers are getting the message out, WE are not going to be victims.

If some Hoplophobe, wets their panties at the sight of a firearm, too bad!!!!!

This country, that I served for 9yrs., is going down the crapper.
When I was a teen, I carried my 30-30 through town, rifle racks were common, with guns in them.
I am ashamed at what WE have become.
Hunters against target shooter, against cc'ers,against oc'ers,etc....

ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IF we aren't for everyone, we might as well line up like they did in the UK, and AU

One reference, Rosa Parks!!!!!!!

Rant over.


I approve this post
