Father Open Carries Firearm Into His Child’s School, Alarms Parents And School
A Michigan father open carried his firearm into his child’s school and that action concerned the parents of children attending the school. The school district is trying to find a way to respect the Second Amendment while keeping the children safe, since obviously, this unidentified man only cares about the former.
For the time being, Huron Valley Schools said that any instance of open carry means they will apply its emergency procedures, which includes calling 911, and have an officer approve the entry of the individual with the firearm
“What we would do is we would apply our emergency procedures in the instance that someone chooses to open carry,” Kim Root, Director Of Community Relations for Huron Valley Schools, said.”For example whenever someone chooses to open carry on school grounds, we would apply our emergency procedures which would include going on lockdown.”
“I get that he’s exercising his right, and that is the law when it comes to open carry,” Ed Swadish, owner of Huron Valley Guns said.
Swadish admitted that he understands the parents’ concerns, but he said that open carry in this situation may actually be the safer option.
“If he was conceal carrying, and that’s not allowed, he would have to unholster his gun in the parking lot,” Swadish said. “And it may not be the safest option to leave his firearm in the car.”
“We will use our emergency procedures to ensure that we are doing what the community has asked us to do,” Root said. “And that is to protect the safety of our students first.”
Or the man could homeschool his child instead of freaking out the population of the school. Because there was a very recent school shooting and people are alarmed. It’s too bad that “respect those around you” was not written into the Second Amendment. Perhaps the Founders thought that that was a given.

He’s not a ‘well regulated militia’. He has no business carrying.

Nick Offerman and I are both what we call “Second Amendment Originalists”: The US constitution grants you the right to bear a front loading musket, along with metal balls and black power and packing paper.
The constitution says nothing that grants the right to any type of armament, and indeed a private citizen is not allowed to own a bazooka.
Mere congressional legislation can legally restrict citizens to muskets.
The argument that we need the latest tech guns with their mass killing power because the purpose is to defeat or deter the federal army is laughable. The bogus argument reminds me of the irony in the song ‘Silas Stingy’ by John Entwhistle of The Who:
He bought a safe to put the box in
And a house to put the safe in
And a watchdog on a chain to make quite sure
And his face was very funny
When he counted up his money
And he realized he hadn’t any more
While private citizens accumulate guns to protect the citizenry from the evil government, those same guns are killing citizens by the dozen every day. “Ironic” is putting it nicely.

You people are really out there. It is not the kids that are freaked out, it is the adults. The kids get freaked out because the adults tell them that is the proper way to act.
Muskets? Bull. We are ALL the militia.
Leave the think in the car? At home? Can ANY of you guarantee the safety of any of us at all times? I know of at least one person’s parents that are dead because she left her weapon in the car instead of keeping it with her when a CRIMINAL decided to crash into the restaurant they were eating in.
No, it is people like you that are causing all of the “freaking out.” One of these days each of you will likely have an experience where you will wish to hell you had something to protect yourself NOW while you wait for minutes or hours for your blessed police to arrive. Just remember, the criminals you all love so much don’t obey the law.
