Mayor: A Gang Of Armed White Men Will Be Standing Along Parade Route, Do Not Be Alarmed
Open Carry activists would have us believe that people are not afraid of guns while they strut into family friendly establishments with military-style weapons strapped to their backs.
Via Your Houston News:
The Fair Parade committee approved this group’s application. They have agreed not to carry any firearms in the parade; however there may be members of the group along the parade route displaying rifles, shotguns and black powder pistols in open holsters, which is legal in TX.
This information is being released in the interest of Public Safety so that citizens attending the parade will not be alarmed if they sec non-uniformed individuals carrying weapons.
[sic]
So a press release was issued so that the public will not be “alarmed” when they see an armed gang of white guys standing along the parade route displaying their long guns. Open Carry Texas and other groups have been marching in parades lately as a form of self-promotion, which they no doubt will call ‘exercising their Second Amendment rights.”
What these groups are trying to do is desensitize the population so that witnessing their tactics will eventually not be an issue with residents in neighborhoods they invade. Because their rights trump yours. Because they are just that f*cking special. Because sometimes intimidation works and they will push the boundaries.
Because they don’t care what you think, if you’re uncomfortable or if your children are frightened.
Big thanks to my friend out there for sending me the link.

What’s wrong with their behavior? I acted the same way when I was 8 years old.

I was thinking of the same thing, but with a bath towel wrapped around the neck like a Superman cape.

Their rights do trump yours. They have a right to bear arms, you dont have a right to not see a gun.

You do know that’s not the entirety of the 2nd amendment, right?
John Iwaniszek October 13th, 2014 at 14:48
(that’s not the 2nd amendment at all.)

Well yeah, I know the point of it isn’t to stand out armed at a parade. But please, I would love to hear your interpretation of said amendment.

What if you see a guy with a gun? can you still call 911? How do you tell the good gunners from the bad gunners?

The bad guys don’t usually sling AR’s. Also they are shooting at people.

Exactly! Paranoids parading around with guns shoot 22 to 43 times more friends and family than any intruder. 2011’s USA 8,583 gun homicide murders included 323 killed by rifles, 356 shotgun criminal murders,1,587 killed by unspecified gun types & 97 gun deaths labeled as other via the FBI Murder Victims by Weapon, 2007–2011. That doesn’t include accidental and all US gun deaths killing more than 32,000 in 2011, or the other 70,000+ shot each year in the USA.

How do these guys think openly carrying weapons of any kind does anything other than bully others. if a large crowd of equally armed black guys stand across the road will they be ‘allowed’ the same rights?
