The woman with that had the sign on her chest is an idiot. She said "just because it's the law, just because it's legal, just because you have a right to bear arms, there's a time and a place". http://www.wxyz.com/dpp/news/region...carry-firearms-at-arts,-beats-&-eats-festival The time and the place is 24/7, nothing less. I know I am preaching to the choir, but these people that want to ban guns at ABE drive me crazy. Actually, people that want to ban guns drive me crazy. What if there was a clause in the contract saying people that are overweight like that woman with the sign could not eat fattening foods at the festival? She should be worrying about clogged arteries, diabetes, etc. not people legally carrying guns. She should also be worrying about criminals that carry guns, not law abiding citizens that carry.

I found her mildly humorous. The signs, which were on her front and back, were clamped onto her shirt with Jumbo Metal Paper Clips. This may qualify for the "funny hats" that Commissioner Razor wanted to make firearm carriers wear, except that the Anti's are wearing funny signs willingly.

Her signs did not even convey the proper message that aligned with her viewpoint/statements. There were 2 sentences on the sign, based upon the way she composed this from information gleaned from FACEBOOK.

1) No! (City stop your unlawful actions)

2) Guns @ ABE (Allow Guns at Arts, Beats, and Eats)

To an English Language guy like me, this structure actually supports our position!

Thus ends the Grammar lesson for the day.
