Or a group or a person who wants to intimidate someone "open carries" at an event or rally. A gun in plain sight on a human being outside of hunting game or at a shooting range, gun show or something to that affect (imho) is there to intimidate someone with. The open carry on those at the Dallas rally were there to send a message to human beings, and so who was the message being sent to is the question ? Did the ones who were open carrying, feel that they were doing so to protect the interest or message of their fellow protestors ? Who would have denide that message in which was in the interest of the protestors ?With any rally that is organized or march that is conducted, should anyone be allowed to attend the rally with a loaded weapon without proper authorization? Otherwise to just show up with a weapon brandished upon your person, and claiming a right to do so under the Constitution ? For anyone wanting to attend a rally or march, and wanting to do so with a loaded weapon, (I have to ask), should they have to get a separate permit or a permit specifically stating the reason for having the gun coming along with them ? If the reason is not good enough, then should they be denide the permit for carrying a weapon at the specific rally applied for ? Should a bill be created that addresses the issue if there isn't one already ? If a rally is created or a march that is deemed peaceful by the organizers as just that, and it is stated in the permit being granted as such, then shouldn't there be added (due to the peaceful nature) a rule that states no weapons at all are allowed at the event, and a copy of it is to be given to the local police force in order to enforce the rule ?
I go to all kinds of places with a loaded weapon and nobody knows.
IMO only an idiot who wants to draw attention to himself open carries
