Strapped with pistols and AR-15 rifles, at least four men walked through Grand Rapids' Southeast Side Saturday in an effort to promote and "educate" the public on openly carrying guns in public.
One man, who declined to give his name, said if the public sees "somebody walking with a gun, despite everything the media says, there's nothing bad happening." The three other men also declined to give their names, saying they feared "retaliation."
A Grand Rapids police lieutenant said 911 dispatchers received at least one call about the gun-toting men. Officers responded to check out the report, then briefly talked to the men and found no violations.

The article repeatedly mentions four men.
The accompanying photos depict four people, one of whom is shorter than the rest, wearing a skirt with leggings underneath, and carrying an AR with pink furniture.
Is that really a 'man'? If not, why does Mlive conceal the gender diversity of the group after the writer interviewed them?

| Yep, four dudes, just like the reporter said. That is an odd looking kilt he's wearing though. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
