I wonder if it's too late to ogranize a counter demonstration? Call up TSRA and see if we can outnumber those folks? I'd be there.

Now I'm starting to believe that a lot of politicians and public figures are fully conversant with the facts - but they deliberately distort the facts as much as they can because they profit from the support they receive from the truly ignorant.
I'd agree somewhat. I think your rank and file antigun officials ARE ignorant. Then you have your folks like Chuck Schumer and Barbera Boxer who I think just latch on to the issue even though they know the facts. Barbera Boxer has a CCW in California; so I'd have to guess she has some firearms knowledge. I'm sure Chucky-Boy has one, too, but I don't know for sure.

This type of utter ignorance baffles me.

What a shame that open carry isn't legal. A bunch of us could go to Dallas and wave at them as they marched by.

Heh, the ONLY thing i love about North Dakota is its gun Laws... Open carry is legal from 1 hour before sunrise to 1 hour after sunset. Though ive never seen anyone do it.

MLK jr was a great man, it's really sad Jessie Jackson is perverting a day that celebrate's MLK's life. That said, anyone have range plans for the 28th? :grin:

Last I checked open carry of long guns is legal... Even evil black ones.

Ole Jessie likes rolling in blood. After Dr. King was shot, Ole Jessie came running and rolled in the great mans blood then ran down stairs to give a press conference! Dr. Abernathy of the urban league hated the blood rolling dog until his dying day. Main Stream Media might have forgoten this episode of Jessies life but I have not.

When I posted I was thinking handguns. You may have a great idea here! Let's see...AR? M1? M14? or maybe my Thompson?
