    Speedos are legal to wear in public...in the winter...in the rain........which may not be responsible speedo ownership.

    Please don't do a disservice to the pro 2A community by bringing uwanted attention to yourself. Part of the message is to demonstrate responsible gun ownership.

    Oh contraire, I wholeheartedly encourage him to wear a speedo...in the winter...in the rain.

    It's a shame we have arrived at a place where the act of exercising a God given right is detrimental to that very right, be it by socially engineered oppression, supported by unlawful law enforcement persecution of the exercise and paid for by our very own tax dollars.

    You can thanks Democrats, Communists, and Liberals. (Not that they are very different)

    He answers the question in #3 in the prohibitions seciton. You cannot carry within 1000ft of a public demonstration. Many of us were going to openly carry during the demonstrations on 2/23 around the state.

    My AR and my 3 piece suit although rather nice probably wouldnt go together well walking down the sidewalk in Bethesda or Columbia. Im brazen but not dumb.

    maybe everyone should have carried gun cut outs. lol

    Don't do it but if you do, remove the bolt and leave it at home. Best that you get arrested with an inoperable firearm.

    I called the MSP today and got referred to the DNR. Dear lord this state is going to hell.

    Can anyone cite a reference where this might be legal?

    In response to www.DayOfResistance.com
    Why? This fight is all about optics and, unfortunately, we are losing...why incite the takers?

    I can only think that if someone pulls a stunt like that and they will make the evening news in a very bad light.

    Ok I understand you wanting to test your 2nd amendment rights but other than that why in the hell would you want to walk around in public carrying a long rifle?

    Honestly I think that if we don't continue to tweak law enforcement with crap like this and only address valid issues we would be considered far more valid. Take as example the people against gay marriage who use the argument "Whats next, people marrying animals?"...If you push too hard you look extreme, pick your battles wisely my friends.

    I don't think you read the whole thread. I don't. Only for demonstration purposes which isn't legal within 1000 foot on 2/23.
