Paranoid and I bet younger than 50-60 yo...

I am 62 and in this day of mass shootings for fame it is stupid to do something like this in a park, mall, etc, etc. Walking down the road to a place to shoot or hunt is one thing, being dumbass enough to do it in a park is a whole other story, and yes I grew up in the country with guns, rifle rack in my back window, etc.

This whole fiasco is just stupid. Just because you have the right to do something doesn't mean you should do it.

Yahoos like this are gonna screw things up in the long run for all of us. Republicans and pro-2A supporters aren't gonna be in power forever. Fly under the radar and then maybe anti-gunners won't drop the hammer on our heads when the power shifts. Stupid stunts like this curry us no favor.

Having a Right means that you can do it regardless of what others think. Also, having a Right absolutely means you should do it, or you will lose said Right. Being free is not easy, because weak minded people will worry about what people think versus being free.

The more people we have bearing arms the better. Most mass shootings happen in gun free zones. There is no need to make non-gun-free zones into effectively gun-free zones for some magnanimous altruistic sacrifice of our own safety by not bearing arms to artificially soothe the sensibilities of an ignorant mass of snowflakes.

I agree, I would like to add that the more people that know folks are bearing arms makes everyone safer. People who argue that they want the tactical advantage are really just scared individuals.

If you say so!

You can be smug if you want, but I don't have to say so. The State Legislature said so when they passed the law.

OK State law is not exactly aligned with the Federal law anyway, as the federal statues (in at least some places in statute) states a pistol is designed with a short stock and to be fired with one hand; the ATF acknowledges the "one hand" design. The state law in the SDA references one or both hands.

That's why the state law goes on to define the word, and not rely on an ambiguous definition to be sourced from some other outside context. It sounds like it's splitting hair, but definitions are important in the interpretation and promulgation of law, which is why they bother providing them when such acts are passed.
