The fact is that people ARE alarmed at a person walking around with an AR over his shoulder (or any other gun visibily displayed, when it's ONLY purpose is to make a statement).
Really? while that may be your
opinion, it has certainly not been born out as
fact.
Please go back, look at all the footage, pictures, and accounts, and show me where
anyone even remotely,
appeared to be alarmed at
any of these events.
(Save, of course, the NYT blatherings)
The record shows that; not only were there no "Oh my gosh, he has a gun!!!" comments (other than Matthews) but even LE was well aware of all these protesters and even began to educate people about the protesters right to do so.
People like this are no friends of mine.
So, are we to assume, from this, and some of your other comments, that
you do not support any sort of freedom?
You do not seem to like people exercising their 1A rights;
The "Tree of liberty" sign is just icing on the cake.
Nor their 2A rights;
along with the presence of the gun, worn with maximum Rambo fashion in the mall ninja thigh rig, clearly stated what he meant to say.
And you even have a distaste for military veterans it seems;
And not EVERY gun owner is entirely mentally stable. There's a guy I see at my range all the time. He's a Vietnam vet.
I am curious, you obviously are interested in firearms, but I am guessing you are not involved in, nor support any "activism" of any sort, and are happy with the status quo ?
Maybe you feel you are supporting the cause by keeping your NRA membership? I am just puzzled at why
you protest so
loudly, over the otherwise "silent" protests of others ?
Idiots ? Morons ? Really? Or are they simply the folks who put themselves on the "front lines" to promote the activism that is necessary to guarantee your
own continuing freedom to "go to the range" or "pontificate" on the internet?
Sometimes it is necessary to champion a cause, in an unusual manner, to keep it on the forefront.
And sometimes people just stand on the sidelines, and yell at the action on the field.
