Pretty awesome! I find it funny that some of the extreme groups make up lies as a counter-attack. Oh also within the link was the video portion of them being escorted by the police. Find it funny they're anti-gun, until they dial 911 for help.

Very nice. Thanks for doing that.

But from now on would you please stop shifting and weaving about. It distracts the viewer from your message.

stay safe.

Best way to counter gun haters on the street is carry a few spare pacifiers in your pockets so you can hand them one when they start crying.

I read them the facts. Even media retards know that arguing with well-known or easily-verifiable facts will simply make them look more foolish than they just made themselves look.

Actually that had little to no deterrent effect on Piers Morgan, nor Chris Mathews and the other media retards. Foolish is their stock in trade.

This is because those two nitwits don't have a audience to lose. If they did they would have been a wee bit more circumspect regarding their political views and proclivities.

Lately gun haters is not the problem, it is OC haters, and they seem to be mostly gun owners.
No arguments from me.

Further more, I blame, primarily, top cops.

If top cops were to publicly announce their support for the 2A and specifically OC where it is not currently infringed, then the local citizenry would not be too upset over seeing a holstered firearm.

If the top cop pledged to bring false MWAG callers to justice the local citizenry, via the news, would be educated on the legality of OC.

If beat cops were warned that infringing upon a OCers right without just cause will be dealt with in the harshest of terms then cops would be darned well up to date on the law.

No, top cops can change these attitudes and educate virtually over night.

Is there really a problem with cops responding to MWAG calls, or just the way they respond? Personally, I wouldn't be too terribly chuffed if a cop came up to me, said they got a call about a MWAG, so long as I was free to leave whenever.

Basically, they can say hi all the want so long as I am allowed to say bye.

Giving a good interview takes practice and fore thought.

This one was not bad and a good message was given I am sure that OP well do a better job next time.

With out some pre planning and just being picked out of crowd to be interviewed one doesn't have any time to prepare.

I just glad they aired this one instead of finding the worse looking, worse dressed most "radical" one in the crowd with not a very good message to air.

Plus they aired a good portion of his message not just a couple of words.

When you go to one of these rally's be prepared you could very well be the spokes person shown to many.

I always inform the "reporter" that I am recording this conversation. "If you wish to speak with me, no problem, I will hold you to account for any out of context reports." The "interview" rarely goes any further beyond this point.
