11-year-old brings AR-15 to NH State House rally. Boy says he was there to "stand up for gun rights"

An 11-year-old boy brought an AR-15 and a white flag with the words "Come and Take It" to a rally at the New Hampshire State House Saturday, the Union Leader reported.

Organized by the Granite State Patriots Liberty PAC, the "Honor Your Oath" rally charged that lawmakers who voted to repeal the state's "Stand Your Ground" law last month violated their oaths of office and should be impeached, according to the Union Leader. The rally organizers said the event was not "gun rally."

As TPM reported Saturday, the New Hampshire State House was closed due to a "threat relative to possible violence" received by police and an email sent out to lawmakers around 3 p.m., shortly after the rally ended.

Protective custody might be the solution to protect children from gun nut brainwashing.

were for the best thing for the children.
pretty information free. All of the links I can find are blogs, which vary in quality, including guns.com.

Based on the only photo I can find, I can't tell if it is an AR or if it is actually a real gun.

If SYG is repealed in NH, would it be replaced by a DTR law, or would self defense be based on common law like California and Wyoming? If it is, most likely be a SYG any way. SYG entered US common law during Progressive Era.
