The whole idea of Open carry is that it is legal and those who choose to are law abiding normal every day people just like Granny, Mom and Dad so to speak. To make the point with lewd behavior only begs the question: Are the Open carry people just like Joe six pack and every day Americans? Or something to worry about. I resent the freak show tactics shown on the video. I agree the video is quite instructive of hat NOT to do.Yeah, especially because what they were doing was actually against the law.
I want to point out that while I think its worth watching, I don't condone it.
You didn't quote anyone so who are you arguing with here?So your position is that open carry is a great idea and a basic human right... for anyone that you classify as normal?
wow.
If what they did was illegal (and I don't know one way or the other), than I agree, very stupid move.
Yes but misuse of analogies with naked people claiming to have our best interest hurts us. Nudity has nothing to do with open carry. Lest we change our name to MNOC. Michigan Nudist open carry?there has been a few cases in the past of public nudity being legal because it was a political statement.
thats a serious political statement

This is what I was referring to with the normal comment. I would suggest that all of us were a 'freak show' not so long ago.
While I may agree that a woman going topless and carrying a gun may not make the statement that the open carry movement wants, I have a hard time with the suggestion that someone should refrain from doing something that is (possibly) perfectly legal. The entire open-carry movement would never have gotten off the ground if we would have been worried about being politically correct. Suggesting that someone should not exercise their rights because they are different is just crap.
