More than fourty civil rights activists openly carried guns in down town Hastings today to demonstrate their right to bear arms.
Michigan is one of 44 states where citizens have maintained their right to carry guns openly. Six states have repressed the right during the long years of suppression of the 2nd amendment by the MSM and "Progressive" judges.
Even the Brady Bunch acknowledges that carring arms openly is a right. A spokesman for the Brady campaign, Peter Hamm, said that they have the right to carry openly, but called the freedom fighters "childish".
The movement to openly display the right to bear arms has gained momentum with the Supreme Court decision that affirmed the right after nearly 70 years of suppression. An online petition for open carry in Texas has gained more than 21,000 signatures.
More detail about this freedom march is available at The Free Press, which does not allow any of its copy on Freerepublic.

But when they constantly try and backdoor their policies to other bills to get them passed.....it’s called fair politics.
A set of rules for thee, a different set for me.
Which states have open carry and which don’t? And what are the various restrctions on open carry by state? And what does “shall not be infringed” mean?
