26. from my response on another post...
...people who RESPECT guns DO NOT wear them provocatively - and claim to be 'exercising' their rights...

yeah, he was breaking no laws...except the laws of common sense...

I'll add: Guess what? There is no law against conflating constitutional 'questions'...the right to bear arms is not in question here, and you know it...

this guy was wearing his firearm IN FULL PUBLIC VIEW TO MAKE A STATEMENT...and that statement was not "protect 2nd Amendment rights", and one does not have PRESUME TO READ HIS MIND to know that...

did your 'friend' tell you that the guy got NOBODY thinking about 'what our Constitution really is' because that isn't the question?

not to go against the advice of your 'friend', but you should explore the true concerns expressed about this idiot, and quit trying to find some angle, "constitutional" as is your choice here, to inject some faux aspect to the discussion...
