***PITTSBURGH RIFLE OPEN CARRY*** UPDATED INFO IN OP***

[DK23]

I think he means more with the whole "no gun signs everywhere"

Yeah it was mostly tongue in cheek, but that crossed my mind as well. Not as easy to walk into the local McDonald's carrying a rifle.

Go to Starbucks, tell them you identify as a black man.

On thier FB site, someone from INPAX which is a gun range in Macandles, Pa warned against opening carrying tomorrow. I replied our fore fathers would have approved it and told them I am sorry they are scared. Quess what gun range I won't ever visit again.

Or they might just be taking advise from their legal counsel... just saying...

Understood. So they could say nothing, disavow now, and STFU. Sabotage is pathetic and petty.

How much did those guys settle for? I could use some nice NFA guns...

This rally certainly is spooking all the snakes out of the high grass.

Exactly my thoughts. We will SURELY learn a lot more in the coming days that we would not have if we did things the old way.

There's traffic about this event in corners of the net that the 'old guard' probably don't even know exist.

FOAC is setting themselves to disavow if something goes horribly wrong while trying to save face in case there is room for a photo op.

It's a shitty thing to do, yet not the least surprising.

Or they might just be taking advise from their legal counsel... just saying...

Lawyers, politicians, and lobbyiests have degrees in cya. I would expect nothing less.

You'd think if that were happening, there wouldn't be the conflicting info on the legality of long gun carry with LTCF during SOE...just saying...

This means Stolfer is substituting his own earnest legal beliefs which directly contradict that of retained counsel, while defering to that same counsel for PR tips.

Is he losing his mental faculties? (serious question)

Exactly what I was thinking. It's either blatant disregard or intentionally mudding the waters.

I know of a few out of staters that are coming because of Internet coverage about this. One with me and another from Michigan, just based on videos and posts on websites.

The otherwise low key response may be in part due to no counter-protests materializing. Tim McNulty, spokesman for the mayor’s office, said Thursday that there would be a police presence in part to ensure that the protest is separate from any counter-protests going on, but did not identify any specific planned counter-protests.

Shira Goodman, executive director of the gun control group CeaseFirePA, said the group supports the proposed legislation but is not planning anything because “the people who come to our events are not so comfortable with lots of armed people.”

“An open carry rally is just a blatant intimidation tactic,” Ms. Goodman said.
