The poor little wilting flower expressed fear at the mere sight of a holstered firearm, and articulated her irrational fear as exactly that.

Open carry is the epitome of flashing. Why are the cops allowed to do it?

OK, I'll try to address a few things.

First off, DAMNIT JIM!!

This jumps around a bit:

Second, not sure I could communicate with teenage antis. My youngest is 27, and a gun owner.

Would I have tried? Yes and I'm sure Guy would've too. Would the Generation Whatever teenager who was there because a handful of elected officials/staff will be able to carry firearms is scary, have been triggered by the large bald man or the not as large man with a distinguished grey beard and 2A-related polo? I have no doubt.

Did I want to speak to the guy at Get Go with the sweatpants-Mexican carry and a stendo? Yes. Did I? No.

Should law-abiding Hoosiers be able to carry at the Statehouse? Oh hellz yes! It's embarrassing that Kentuckians can do that and we can't.

I know the big picture behind the SB 14 which affects only the Secretary of State/Atty General/Treasurer. I'm not onboard with "rules for thee, but not for me." Then again, I was good with moving the sticks on the way to ConC.

That was a bit rambling...

Here is the story: https://www.foxnews.com/politics/in...students-protesting-gun-control-state-capitol

What is the general consensus of this type of behavior? As a carrying gun owner, I think we should be able to carry out discussions of guns and safety and other issues without flashing our concealed gun at those we are talking to. Especially if we are talking to anti gun people.

Think maybe we can change your name to KellyinSeymour so that we might get a representative that actually represents us?

How many cops in the Statehouse flashing their guns as you you walk in? Marshall and bailiffs of the Indiana Supreme Court are armed, openly. State troopers on roving duty, did anyone see a pistol and cry?

Did any snowflakes burst into tears or smoke?

It'll be interesting to see if this story gets featured on Hammer and Nigel? Whether they will have The Gun Guy in to discuss?

I’m surprised that the woke little whiners didn’t wet their pants when they saw the handgun. Now that would have been very funny indeed.
