Re: Two arrested at Austin Capitol during open carry rally

I have read all 4 pages of this thread and here is what I have to offer:

1) This demonstration has effectively caused like minded individuals ON THIS FORUM to not only strongly disagree, but also become angry and demeaning toward each other. If it is going to cause this for all of us, what do you think it will do to those that are "on the fence" about open carry, pre-1899 firearms, or firearms in general?

2) The LEO's involved only have to suspect a crime is being committed to (a) ask for ID and (b) make an arrest. They do not have to know every detail of every law. That is the courts job.

3) They could have been arrested for Disorderly Conduct based on what I saw.

4) I am not too sure, as was stated earlier, that this may have been staged by the anti's to make us all look bad.

5) This type of behavior puts us all in a bad light and very well may have the opposite actions taken than what they were trying to achieve.
