Do you have the "right"? Sure! Will they find your dead body in a field later in the day? Probably.

    There is a time and a place for everything. As firearms owners we should be smart enough to know when discretion is called for and when it's not a problem to stir things up by exercising your rights.
    Again, soooo, the environment and climate regulate my rights? Don't let uncle Sam know. There is a time and place for all things. Including being a victim of a crime that could have been prevented or lessoned. You keep your rights hidden thanks to media bias and public panic due to one persons actions. I will continue to exercise mine openly. I guess we should all quit driving when someone kills a kid in a school crossing to, right? Wrong. And driving isn't even a right, it's a priveledge.

    Best pull back the reins there hoss. Coming onto a private site from out of state and acting so agressively right off the bat is another situation where you need to know your environment.

    Just sayin!

    Then you support the WBC's decisions to exercise their 1st amendment rights when they do?


    Via Yahoo and veery stoopid as will:
    He added that he has held a concealed carry permit issued by the Arapahoe County Sheriff's Office since 2003, although the Thornton movie theater doesn't reside in Arapahoe County, so the permit doesn't help his case.
    Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

    THOMAS!!!!!

    What in the 'heck' is wrong with you?

    Please go back and re-read that when you aren't crazy in the nogin....

    so what you are saying is that everyone needs to hide the guns and go disarmed for the sake of the liberals?

    REALLY?


    We as Americans should ALWAYS be able to exercise our RIGHTS... that's why we call them RIGHTS and not privileges.

    what next,
    "Oh, Theres a flood, everyone turn in your guns...
    National Emergency and all, Discretion required! you understand right?"






    more compromise in this thread than an NRA Meeting

    He's saying it's the context of when you do it. Why is this so hard for everyone to understand. No one (well most) is saying not to OC just pick when you do it smartly. Just as when you would pick to insult bikers using your 1st amendment rights.

    Just because you can doesn't mean you should.

    Both show a lack of wisdom & discretion given the circumstances.

    BINGO! We have a winner!

    I'm an advocate of OC, I just know that there are times when it isn't appropriate.

    I do support the WBC's rights under the first amendment. I don't agree with their reasons or tactics or ideals at all. Please don't misunderstand me. I DO NOT support the WBC. I do support their rights under the first amendment. Just as I do yours.
