I had to share this argument that I have had on another site. (I do want to give credit to Gray Peterson as well as he mentioned this at the 2A rally)

In response to this quote and the 'I don't think it will work as a political strategy' quoted earlier... consider this...

Last year a young man name Chris showed up at a Obama event in Arizona carrying a pistol and something else (see pic)... everyone gasped! The NRA and other's in 'favor' of gun rights didn't want to touch this issue! Many said that this is a poor political strategy, it makes others uncomfortable, it is ill mannered. If we do this they will ban all guns, they will ban open carry, they will ban concealed carry!!! These are the things all the nay sayers were typing and hollering to the open carry advocates!

By the way, Arizona's Constitution is word for word what Washington's Constitution is, why? Because they copied Washington word for word!

Last week the Governor of Arizonasigned into law'Constitutional Carry' elimanating the need for a government permission slip to lawfully carry a firearm in public! Either concealed or OPEN!

In any struggle for a civil right it is leaders like Chris (and Gray)who make this happen!

After further thought, I was wrong when I thought there should be no long guns at the event. Secondly, yes I know that the interview with Chris at the Obama event was staged, but so was Rosa Parks when she rode on the front of that bus in Montgomery, Alabama.

Sean Salazar is running for US Senate, and has no influence in the state legislature in this regard. Arizona's statute is different than Washington State's statutes. The court rulings in the state courts in Arizona have not been all that "pro-gun". Arizona has no law like RCW 9.41.270 and never has.

No truck? Just what kind of a gun-totin' redneck are you?;)
yeah really, that car better be a camaro.
Camaros don't have trunks.... and I would never ever own a GM car.... not now... did in the past, but never again. Its either Ford or some foreign brand.

And unfortunately, ever since they made it illegal to carry guns on a gun rack in your truck... who cares any more what type of vehicle it is?

But, the only thing I can think of that he is talking about is if the gun is visible in a gun rack, then it cannot be left unattended in the vehicle.

Well, heck, I went and looked and that only applies to pistols! So rifles in the gun rack should be just fine, even unattended.
You have me figured out. Typical Naval Officer:D
