Re: Open Carry Texas holds demonstration in Longview

I am out of this OC business. Nothing to gain from arguing. Maybe working silently do accomplish more useful things.
But let me know one thing, let us say if OC for sidearms do pass and it is the law that OC of long rifles is legal. In the future exercising the OC option would not be agitating the anti too? Or, are we trying to pass OC on the books only and then we discourage the practice of OC for firearms? :headscratch

Re: Open Carry Texas holds demonstration in Longview

If we allow or even tolerate more gun restrictions or banning OC of long rifles or replica black powder revovlers, then we are total failure as gun-right community. If this ever happens, it is only us to be blamed. I mean OC folks are trying to advance the OC right, if we do not support OC or any other gun rights then who are we? :grumble

Re: Open Carry Texas holds demonstration in Longview

OCT experience in TN. However, no one noticed or even bothered to say "Hello, what are you carrying?"

Re: Open Carry Texas holds demonstration in Longview

To give credit to where it is due. The OCT armed demo and distribution of copy of the constitution is working in bring attention and awareness to the OC issue. Also, all the demo so far is conducted on public area street and parks and Local PD is notified when needed. The event is noting but have courteous and positive attitude. As 2ndA supporters, if we can't support those events, or we can not live with those events, then surely something is wrong in our position.

Lot of mud slinging and little else. Has anyone ever called a sit-down meeting with these folks?
Actually yes, there has been a sit down phone conversation with C.J. Grisham very recently (04/28/14). This should really go to it's own thread but I guess this will be as good a place to post as any. You can find the web based audio player, and direct download link here: http://opencarryreport.com/010/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; or you can just listen to the audio by grabbing it from here: http://traffic.libsyn.com/opencarryreport/OCR-010.mp3" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I don't say much, but you might recognize the other parties. BTW, I would like to publicly thank thank Alice, Charles, and C.J. for their part in this effort.
Nice to know, that TSRA is on board for OC bill in 2015.

Re: Open Carry Texas holds demonstration in Longview

OC and CHL communities should drop their differences and build a strategy to further our 2ndA right. All other blame mud slinging is destructive. Only constrctive and positive attitude is the winning approach.
