Mods and Owners:
I ask that you allow this post to stay, even though it may fall outside of the LGOC rule. This has the potential to be historic news, and affects us all.

I would like to see OCDO keep their distance from this event - people are free to choose individually of course - but lets bear in mind that what this guy is advocating is completely illegal (Loaded OC in the District of Columbia) and it is against OCDO policy to advocate activity that is against the law. This has the potential to backfire very very badly. Officially I cannot condone what these people are doing, nor do I believe we are at a point where we have the numbers where an act of civil disobedience such as this would gain any significant traction.

I, for one, would consider them Patriots. If it wasn't for breaking laws we would still be under England's rule. Furthermore, unconstitutional laws, are not laws, but tyranny.

you miss the point of this. by banning the right to keep and bare arms in any manner is unconstitutional, regardless of a law, this is why thy are doing it. yes it might be "illegal" but it is a right to us per the constitution.

i say DO IT!!!

It seems to me the OP is simply asking that the thread stand as an awarness. I don't think he's suggesting OCDO get behind this movement. We make each other aware of things all the time here but, that doesn't mean OCDO advocates it all.

I certainly wouldn't want to see OCDO advocate for this event, but I do hope the mods allow us to discuss it as it unfolds.

You miss the point... it'll be summertime soon and he may have to wear a tank top so his arms are bare while he bears his arms.

That is exactly the point of the post. However, the discussion of the matter, without crossing the LGOC line, is possible. As stated earlier, carry in DC is illegal, per unconstitutional state law, and that includes the carry of pistols.

I am eager to see the outcome of this. Updated articles show Mr. Kokesh is working with DC police to plan the event and make them aware of what is going to happen. This will definately be interesting.

Don't know why one wouldn't hope that a 2nd amendment forum wouldn't advocate and congratulate those willing to stand up for our constitution and against a tyrannical government.

Advocate and praise the advocacy of breaking the law all that you wish. You just should not do so here, as this is private property and the owners have expressed the absolute ban on such advocacy.

This thread should be taken down!

Easy there hoss. Noone but Mr. Kokesh and his group are publicly advocating anything. Dobbs simply stated a factual opinion on the matter at hand. And if calling someone a patriot for doing something that is patriotic is against the rules, so be it. Its not your decision to make. So, I suggest you quit derailing threads because you are offended by its content.

I sturggle with that question quite a bit, but as it is their site, its their rules.

Now, unless this gets out of hand with "patriotic" talk, I request that the thread stay for informational amd discussion(within the rules) purposes.

Easy there, Little Joe. No one was "offended" by the thread. It is a clear rules violation on two counts. It is about LGOC, and it advocates, through advertising, breaking the law.

Can't be a law if it's in direct violation of the Constitution.

And the owners have stated on many occasions that they do not allow the advocacy of breaking unconstitutional laws. It is their site. They will make the ultimate call. However, if they are being consistent, they will shut this thread down.

Luckily there are people out there who support patriots and those who will stand against tyranny as our founders did so long ago. I guess it's just too bad the owners of this website aren't within that group.

Negative. The OP is not attempting to advocate for the carry of Long Guns. It is an observance of another organization's activism.

Further, I don't see the OP rallying OCDO members to follow suit. It is not illegal to monitor and discuss the public actions of others.

georg jetson · May 7, 2013

Hey, maybe this thread will stand cause the other one posted days earlier hasn't been messed with either.
