josephmrtn Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 "This will be a non-violent event, unless the government chooses to make it violent," Kokesh wrote on Facebook. "Should we meet physical resistance, we will peacefully turn back, having shown that free people are not welcome in Washington, & returning with the resolve that the politicians, bureaucrats, & enforcers of the federal government will not be welcome in the land of the free."

Doc Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 I don't really see this as being helpful to pro-gun causes. I think there may be an attitude back-lash from the general public. I'm not against public demonstrations, but willful violation of laws is kind of in a different category than legal protests. Anytime you pit yourself against the men in blue, you run the risk of alienating law abiding citizens. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL I thinks he is saying they would treat it like criminal activity if I read the article correctly, it says that in the District of Columbia it is illegal to have a gun outside of the house, so wouldn't this demonstration be criminal activity?

ants Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Maybe they should march right to the boarder of Virginia and D.C., have their protest and then turn back. I don't know if intentionally breaking the law, in this case, is such a good idea. Anyone who has been to D.C. knows that security is tight. I don't think that D.C. Police or the secret service are going to be too receptive to having 1000 people walk in to the area, armed and loaded. The protesters might force the hand of the Police and that wouldn't look good for gun owners. We took the kids to D.C. about 3 yrs. ago. one day we went to the white house. Security allowed you to stay, close to the front of the building, for a very short period of time. Maybe a half an hour. Once the time was up, security wanted everyone out and they were not nice about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
