Sorry I meant open carry. I guess I don't agree with all of the views here. I think there are places where there should be some restrictions...

I did notice that all the charges filed against that jackass in AZ had something to do with a gubbermint or federal official. No murder charge was filed for that 9 year old girl.

I'm assuming that's because you'd be hard-pressed to find that he pre-meditated and planned the murder of her and to charge him with such would not only tie up the system, but create a potential loop-hole, depending on the verdict. I bet they're playing it safe by only including charges that carry Federal penalties.

Just my guess, anyways.

Yeah. Open carry sucks. Tactical reason. No element of surprise.

''Hey I have a gun! Shoot me first!''

Good point, but there are still charges that apply. That will probably the state that files those.

I think the Feds only have jurisdiction over Giffords and the judge since they are federal officials.


The state will get the "regular" people.

Great, 2000 foot bubbles roaming around trying to make us felons at any time. Can we make them drag a big ballon like they have at car dealer lots so we know to stay away?

Are they going to start to randomly frisk people inside the Bubble?

So are you thinking that it should be attached around the neck?

We should make murder illegal, it would totally stop crazy people from killing other people.

Exactly any other millions of laws underneath that one won't do a damn thing.

If it is a federal law, who knows how the attachment point would be required.
