They should go down to the 'hood' and patrol where there might be real shooting.

Glad you're here! You just absolutely nailed it - 40 cowards openly brandishing their murder toys and massacre machines to outshout four unarmed moms trying to have a discussion over lunch.

They must be SOOOOO proud.

You know, I have never heard of any of these open carry people going into seemingly dangerous neighborhoods to demonstrate their right to openly carry a loaded weapon. There are pictures of them at malls, restaurants, coffee shops, and grocery stores, but they do not seem to show up in gang riddled neighborhoods where people who have guns might shoot them.
