According to Janine Pirro, MAGA DC Attorney General, in a move to protect 2nd Amendment rights, open carry will no longer be considered a felony in Washington DC. If it is prosecuted at all, it will be as a misdemeanor.

Many States continue to allow Open Carry and Concealed Weapon with a license, although some establishments can bar them inside.

Owning, & open-carry are 2 different things. My first job out of school was in Phoenix; bikers with sidearms took some getting used to, & while volunteering as a corner flagger at Phoenix International Raceways there was an 'incident' once, w/some bikers doing some target shooting in the outfield.

I’m aware that they’re two different things. Open carry is meant for intimidation. She assumes her side will do all the intimidating because that’s historically the way it’s been.

If I see a rando guy walking down the street with assault rifle imma quickly flee in the opposite direction & not returning to the area until they’re gone. You have less than 5 seconds to learn if said AK carrier is a ‘good guy’ with a gun or a mass shooter.

Open carry is dishonorable; it's an openly declared threat of violence that unnecessarily frightens innocent people. Pirro is thirsty for skirmishes to increase her power.

Technically she is supposed to follow DC law but recently she told courts to STOP criminalizing carrying rifles publicly as felonies. People who have illegal guns considered rifles are being taken off probation. Opposite of public safety

To be clear, Trump doesn’t care who starts it, either. He can lie and say it was a liberal or whatever other scapegoat he chooses. Trump simply needs a reason for the lockdown and anyone can give him that.

If a Black man or Black woman, add Brown to that is seen walking around with an open carry assault rifle theyre going to be quickly suicided by cop. We’ve all seen it before. Tamir Rice & all. Please be careful my non-White friends. Or fck it, my enemies. This is madness, dangerous madness.

Exactly. As soon as the Black Panthers in California we're on camera with weapons, Regan (he was governor at the time) suddenly wanted and pushed for "reform". And the state GOP of California pushed HARD and had those reforms in months.
