You are correct SelfDefense. No one was demonstrably damaged. It was our freedom that took the hit. From Hurricane Katrina to California, this incident and all the others we haven't heard about, is a direct hit to our god given right to protect our lives and the lives of our loved ones and property. Acceptance of these kind of behaviors and tactics only makes the next attack easier and then more common place. Acceptance of these behaviors only arms the criminals while we are turned into another statistic. I saw what happened in New Orleans. A great deal of the people left in New Orleans at that time were drug dealers and gang bangers fighting over turf. I was an adjuster there. Nagle had a field day. I suspect he wanted to be just like Mayor Daley or even Mayor Bloomberg. Thank God for the NRA for which I am proudly a member. Took two federal court hearings to get him to stop taking away legal guns from honest citizens. I too do not open carry but I know that's my choice and my choice is not necessarily what's right for everyone else. I respect your desire to be polite. I wish there were more people in the world who had a love and respect for each other, but that is not the reality. There are people out there that will kick your teeth in for a buck. This is not about manners. It's not about open carry. It's all about freedom and the resistance to maintain that freedom. Its way past manners. I'm sorry but I cant accept what happened as common place and a minor inconvenience. I respect your position. I can only hope you respect mine. Now if you'll excuse me. My soap box time has expired....
