My stand is as follows......
Personal Choice.......Back your Brothers Play.

Think of the deterrent value if 4 of you are sitting in the park or the Dairy Queen with your Remington 870s. Throw in maybe an M4 into the mix just for a little variety. This is legal, so long as the DQ manager has no issue with it and the park is public property. Why aren't you doing this sort of thing today if OC is such a great idea and an ideal exercise of your 2A rights?

ACTUALLY I have. I strapped my 870 on my back and a buddy strapped his 243 on his back....we rode our Harleys through town and down the highway about 14mi to the range. NOT ONE PPROBLEM.....and we even passed a cop.
Oh yeah......when we were done at the range we rode the 14mi back to the house.

I also OC on a VERY regular basis in my front yard. Be it to just run out to the truck or mow the lawn. I have NOT had any problems doing so. Could people "think" I am LEO? Its possible. However< I really dont care what they think.....because I am LEGAL.

Heck, license wise, do as Tennessee. The license there is handgun carry, open or concealed, you pick. I really think that this is a right that we should get back, even if it's just going to be for the sake of having that right given back to us since it's rarely going to be excercised from what I've seen.

My EXACT thoughts. It should be PERSONAL CHOICE.
I will also add that if you are willing to support one GUN law that is PROgun why wouldnt you at the very least support (vote for) all pro gun laws even if you chose not to use it.



In short, if you are PRO GUN.......be PRO GUN 100%. Dont support ONLY the laws that affect YOU personally. Support ALL PRO GUN laws.

Gun Owners need to STAND TOGETHER.
In time it would be normal to see OC guns.



.....and yes it is legal for a female to go shirtless in public......as long as she is NOT flaunting it (er'...them)
Thats not to say she wouldnt get UNWANTED attention from LEO.
