Are there any additional considerations with the mayor being present and open carrying? Is he going to have a security team present or will there be a large LEO presence? Will they be pro-OC or will it turn into a shit show?

I think this is one of the greatest times to get press for OC in Las Vegas. The media should be present and they will document peaceful, law abiding citizens exercising their rights and the mayor not having an issue with it would be great for the cause.

I think it would be good for the cause weather the Mayor had an issue with it or not.

Headline reads.

Las Vegas MOB lawyer turned mayor freaks out over armed law abiding citizens!

I don't know if the mayor has a security detail. Except maybe when he's at work.

Years ago I seen him at costco on MLK. He wasn't dressed up at all. He had some slacks and a kinda dingy white t-shirt on. And I didn't notice any security around him.

And if something was to happen to the guy. They should be more worried about his "connections" than the police.;)

What specific questions will people present andwant answered by the mayor? I've thought of a few, some relevant to OC and some not. What are some other good questions to ask while we have the mayor's ear?

1. When will we do away with the Clark Countyblue card gun registration tax scheme?

2. When will we take the same approach to concealed carry as Arizona, Vermont & Alaska?

I may have to attend this.


If you see a guy wearing camo shorts and a Glock 17 in a SERPA, say hi!

I'll do my best to be there as well. It is right in the middle of my normal sleep schedule but I think it's worth losing a little sleep.

I get off work at 6am too, but usually don't go to bed till around 11a or 12p, so it'll be easy for me to make that. I won't be drinking a coffee though, I'll never be able to fall asleep. Maybe a hot tea or something.

Sounds to me like the mayor needs a new tshirt... who else loves guns and coffee?

See thread below... and yes, I can ship them. Who wants one?

Well we just got back there was an okay turn out of citizens talking to the mayor he did shake my hand, also met a candidate for district 3 Steven P. Nohrden http://www.nohrden4congress.com running against Titus. Very 2nd amendment friendly and loved that we were OCing, met one other member from here so there were three of us total OCing today. We all took a picture with Nohrden so hopefully that will be posted by his staff on his site soon. There were two marshal officers inside standing by they did not say anything to us and were greeted with courteous smiles.

This is fantastic. Hope the mainstream news shows this. What an awesome event to have a Mayor of a major city to allow an public meeting with the general public while some of them open carrying firearms. Can you image if that was even suggested in LA, Oakland, CA, New York or Boston? I would have like to have been there. Way to go to those whoever got this on and participated.

Thank you for mentioning me on your website. I really appreciate it when American's stand up and remind everyone else what this country was built on... OUR Constitution! I am a life time member of the NRA and Front Site. If you live in District 3 of Nevada I need your vote for the Primary. Early voting starts May 22 and the last day to vote is June 8. Please visit my website at www.FireTitus.com (it goes to the same website as the one mentioned above!;)



I'm Steve Nohrden running for Congress in Nevada's District 3 and I approved this message.
