Open carry only becomes controversial, yea criminal, if a person "goes armed to the terror or the public".
For this to be a crime, it must be done intentionally for that purpose.
The Constitution doesn't protect people using their natural liberties to commit crimes. Merely open carrying is not a crime, it is a right, but doing so with the clear and obvious intent to terrorize people makes it one.
If this nitwit was honest, he would have written a different column. |

| I open carry here in Arizona nearly every day. Nobody here worries about it. In the last two weeks, at least two "older" ladies have stopped me to thank me for doing so. |

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) |
