Anti-gun "Community Activists"

...or is that "communist activists"?

Note from Oregon Firearms Federation Alert system (way faster than NRA-ILA): an Obama-front (let's use the real Marxist language!) outfit will picket a GOP congresscritter's offices in Bend, OR (Bend is in the conservative part of the state).

It seems that the Marxists are after ammo-capacity limits and universal background checks. I guess they didn't read today's lib-rag front page article.

It seems that they might get the "universal" background checks passed. The capacity limits and AWB will be a no-go in this Legislature. H/T to Mad Ern out in the Ponderosa near Bend.

Oh, and another note: Thank you (NOT), you O/C buffoons. It is now likely that a large crack will be put in the strong state-preemption law that Oregon has. An exception is now going to be made to allow the GFW*-PSH** Leges to grant themselves yet another exception to the laws that everyone else has to follow. Will stores and bars and restaurants be far behind with THEIR GFW-PSH requests? I think not. Do you REALLY believe that pissing off the very people who have teeth and claws and can do you harm is the way to operate?

Sow the wind, reap the whirlwind. Is there ANYONE in the O/C movement with an ounce of common sense? I'll answer that. I'm beginning to see the current O/C movement as inherently damaging to the entire process of preserving and expanding 2A rights. They are about to make MY 2A "enemies list", right along with the Marxists.

I don't have a problem with open carry as long as it doesn't create fear. I open carry regularly in the fields and woods of this gret stet, but I try hard to not bother people with it. The mark of a gentleman is that he never acts rudely, accidentally, and causing un-necessary apprehension in the general public is rude.

I have, on occasion, forgotten that I was strapped and inadvertently walked into an establishment carrying a handgun openly. During those occasions I encountered one of two responses. Either the people inside the establishment didn't see the gun, or chose not to comment on it, or the response was "Cool. What are you carring?" One one occasion I had forgotten and heard a little boy behind me in line "Momma, that man is carrying a gun." Momma said "Smith and Wesson 66, from the looks of it." I turned and smiled my friendliest smile and she reciprocated.
