Hooray, an excuse to OC my brand new Taurus (Thanks Bladerunner!) around Philly for the festivities.

I'm looking forward to the day-after reports. Hopefully with all the front-page news and media coverage going around recently, the eyes of the sheep will be a bit more open.

Be prepared to say to any officer:

"Really? You're going to ask these questions on the celebration of our most shining day of liberty? Is that America dead?"

Make 'em feel bad.

Print up a bunch of shirts that say "It was good enough for G.W. so its good enough for me" and have a picture of George Washington holding a rifle on them. That should add to the impact.

I assume everyone I come in contact with is armed and I plan accordinly. "Be Polite, Be Professional, But, have a plan to kill everyone you meet"

IMO - if this is a real cop, he/she needs to find another profession.. Sounds like the Job has taken it's toll.

Correct me here if I am off base..

Not agreeing or disagreeing with your post nra-life-member, however, I've seen this thought in a book I read called Effective Handgun Defense. It states this is the mentality one should have in the case of self defense.

BTW, this book was written by Frank W. James.

I just might try it for the first time. I have a LTCF and have for years but open carry would be interesting.
