“Open carry” activists celebrate where JFK was murdered.

Damn, chilling video, yet another WTF!



From the Dallas Observer and Talking Points Memo it appears that some of the “open carry” extremists are little worried we don’t get the implication when they scream about how the Democratic President is illegitimate and all their lip-flapping about how they need guns for some fantasized-about revolution. So, just in case we aren’t getting the hint, this group called Come and Take It Dallas went to Dealey Plaza to have an open carry demonstration. Yes, that’s where President John Kennedy was shot. Yes, I think we get the message.

What gets me is these people are being told THAT is the time to strike.

I picture a national temper tantrum of an extremely TINY portion of the population who decide to go down fighting from their barricaded tract homes. Multiple standoffs end as the "patriots" surrender after they run out of beer.

Stupid is being created by our media/government every day.

In a just nation, these RWNJs would be taken away to Siberia.

Open-carry only works for white people, others get murdered by the police.

Of Unfettered Warring, All Over The World.

Obama set the example that this action and line of thinking garners no consequences in his New World Order of keeping an eye and ear, on everyone. The two Presidents have set no difference between civilians and warriors; the Patriot Act was extended. Bomb and Missile attacks are free to be used anywhere in the World (like Gaza/Israel), in my opinion. Rick Perry is militarizing the Texas border to execute civilians/warriors.

These unregulated Militia, armed forces, should be made to register as they claim to be a military force. Just as, by law, there is registration for the Draft, Militia Men/Women should be required, by law, to register.

Hell,...they even get the second WRONG.

Okay,....maybe they could say "freedom of religion" but they think that means you can call yourself a Christian even though you've never gone to church,...except maybe for weddings and funerals.

They told them these were proposed amendments to the Constitution before Congress.

nipping it in the bud from the get go. If they can arrest peaceful protestors for doing absolutely nothing then they surely can drum up something to arrest these people. That tells me "they want this to happen". Whoever "they" are.

The guy who does most of the talking is clearly one of the stupidest people alive. He didn't understand why the Brits and the Aussies do not celebrate July 4th. I almost did a face palm at that point. Secondly I find is atrocious that these people think it is funny to have an open carry rally at one of the most sacred sites in America. All they needed was an Italian Bolt Action rifle and the circle would be complete. I truly do not understand these people and quite frankly I feel sorry for the people of Texas that are forced to deal with fools like this on a regular basis. God I need a drink after watching that video.

hope they are tracked and monitored. I find them creepy, dangerous and not of sound mind! Yes, they give a horrible impression of Texas, not everyone in Texas is a crackpot! And, they wonder why many want better control of guns in America. Damn, they really need to take a good look at this video/article of them, but it would not sink in.
