Gun proponents plan nationwide rally
By John Toole jtoole@eagletribune.com
DERRY — Guns are coming out in the neighborhood.
An unusual national demonstration is slated this fall to highlight gun owner rights and the people behind them.
Gun Rights Across America issued the public call to arms this way: “We want you to strap on a holstered handgun to your hip, and give one hour of your day to make our presence as law-abiding gun owners known.”
Differing gun laws mean the “Guns Next Door” demonstration will take different forms in each state.
In New Hampshire, gun owners are asked to wear holstered handguns in the front yard and carry unloaded rifles outside their home.
The plan for Massachusetts is unclear, but will fit within the Bay State’s gun laws.
Californians will wear empty holsters because that state’s laws are so strict.
The gun rights group is researching gun laws, so participants will act responsibly within state laws.
“This is a rally with a twist,” said Eric Reed, Gun Rights Across America founder and the man behind the pro-gun rally.
...
“People will see armed Americans outside their homes with signs everywhere they look,” Reed said.
...
The event is set for Saturday, Oct. 19, with hour-long sessions staggered by time zone so Americans participate simultaneously.

Smart anticipates strong participation in New Hampshire.
“I personally know of at least 200 associates and acquaintances of mine who are doing it,” he said.
Reed formed the group last year in the aftermath of the Connecticut school shootings.
He admits he was upset when President Obama immediately came out with a gun control agenda.
“That just angered me,” the 38-year-old airline pilot from Texas said.

They'll either back down or start infighting.
These things are never the product of legitimate ordinary gun owners; they're the work of idiot baggers with nothing better to do.
If they'd do just a little bit of research, they'd know that the Second Amendment is alive and well.
Sometimes I think it's an effort designed to backfire, that's how stupid these things look.
don't care to advertise.
Maybe these people think their guns need to socialize with other guns.
