You may want to remind people NOT to unholster their sidearms and NOT to unsling any long guns. Even in a very peaceful demonstration, having the participants handling weapons is not good publicity. I believe that may be the reason our "Open Carry" events have excluded long arms for all this time. Most of the guys don't want to sling an AR all day long and moving it from side to side may not be interpreted by the local LEO's as a kindly gesture. Carrying and handling are two different things so make sure your guys understand the difference. Several hours carrying a holstered sidearm is much easier than several hours of a slung rifle. AD
Good advice for sure. Sadly I will not be able to attend this rally like I had planned. Work changed our truck delivery schedule and now I have to work that Sunday. I was truly looking forward to the rally in my own backyard. I am anticipating a good turnout and good a walk so we shall see how things go.
