He Had a Gun and Nothing Happened

He Had a Gun and Nothing Happened

From New Hampshire to Arizona, Americans openly carrying firearms have been seen outside presidential appearances. The most remarkable thing about this is that some find this behavior to be remarkable.

American citizens are the sovereigns in our system of government. Indeed, We the People created the government which, at least in theory, only does what we tell it to do in the Constitution. Sovereigns are expected to be armed.

The Second Amendment was added to our Constitution to ensure that the individual right to keep and bear arms not be infringed. Infringement would impair the proper functioning of the militia which had been America’s homeland security system all through colonial times and well into our republican era.

The armed attendees made it clear that they were exercising their right to keep and bear arms. Zero tolerance of firearms has become so extreme that even a picture of a gun can get a student kicked out of school. The presence of armed citizens helps correct the notion that guns are inherently dangerous.

Americans are increasingly deciding to go about openly carrying firearms even when they might legally carry concealed. Some would like to say that this constitutes disturbing the peace. It is a strange view that accepts as normal a police officer openly carrying a firearm but finds it alarming when a sovereign citizen -- the cop’s boss -- does the same.

Good article... the "Gun Debate" has been stirred in this country. Time to get vocal about supporting 2A.

I thought it fitting with so many people on the fence about open carry. It's not about being tactically smart in the sense of self defense, even though that is debatable elsewhere. It is, however, tactically smart on the political spectrum and it's starting to show.

Someone is still bound to post something about how CC is tactically better than OC. There will be a paragraph summarizing the many advantages CC has over OC and of course play out the BG hell bent on destruction or robbing a place scenario. Anyone OCing will be shot first, even if 50 people are standing in front of the OCer. Someone will also post about how people carrying firearms openly hurts all gunowner's right to carry openly, so they shouldn't do it.

ATM will post with a thank you for their thoughts and that he wants them to add them to the OC/CC debate thread.

SavageEagle will be saved from getting .
