Yes, Dave. And the actual outcome of the rally? Was there a lot of negative media? I didn't see any, did you? I did see a black woman OCing a AR15 though...perfectly nice lady. ***** footing does no good. Ask the gays how they got their agenda where it's at today.
it is just like hiding your carry. Yep, no one knows you carry...and no-one know where you stand on the 2A when you are just walking down the street. What we need is to be active in politics, and we also need to "Normalize" the open carry of firearms by the general population. When no-one notices average Joe is armed, anymore then they notice that LE is armed...that is when we will have won.
People in general are afraid of the unknown. They know LE is armed, so they are not afraid when they see a person in uniform with an openly carried gun. It is just as legal, and just as correct for average Joe to openly carry, but it is an unknown to some that it is legal, so they may be afraid. We need to NORMALIZE personal protection and you cannot do that by hiding your carry.
