The picture spread on social media, claiming the man had a problem with people parking by his driveway. But that man, who only wants to be identified as Kyle, said that’s not entirely true. He said parking is a problem in this neighborhood at times, but that’s not the reason he had his gun.My experience is that local media is mostly honest. Do not give them ammunition. Dress reasonably, be soft spoken, act reasonably, and act knowing that exercising your rights is a positive, responsible thing to do.
“Didn’t feel like I was bothering anybody,” Kyle said. “I am a hunter, I do like to hunt and I just wanted to sit on my front porch with my gun, I didn’t think that was a big deal.”
But Kyle said he’s had two people confront him, threatening him because he had a firearm.
“He said if I didn’t have that gun I’d cut you up real good,” Kyle said remembering something a man outside his house said to him this week.
Kyle said he’s just exercising his second amendment rights and is always responsible with guns. But parents said it still makes them uneasy with it being so close to a school.
Officials with the Wichita School District said they are aware of the situation and parent’s concerns, however, they have no reports of the man pointing the gun at anyone or making any threats. They also spoke with police who confirm the man has the right to carry the gun openly.The old adage bears repeating. Rights are like muscles. If you do not exercise them, you tend to lose them.

Good reason to show that you have a gun.
it comes down too this- the elite, the handful of people who control half or more of the world’s wealth fear a repeat of the French revolution. They don’t want us to have guns because they don’t want to be hanged upon meathooks. They use their bought and paid for media and politicians to use law and mind control 24 hours a day. Screw them. Let them hide in bunkers. Let them feel unsafe to go to their award shows to pick up their awards. Let them feel afraid to go see Hamilton.
The guy is an idiot.
I can’t believe that a woman with a ring in her nose is allowed to raise elementary age children.
For anyone else out there who didn’t know what this meant:
Hoplophobia is a political neologism coined by retired American military officer Jeff Cooper as a pejorative to describe an “irrational aversion to weapons.”[1][2][3] It is also used to describe the “fear of firearms”[4][5] or the “fear of armed citizens.”[6] Hoplophobia is a political term and not a recognized medical phobia.
:: they have no reports of the man pointing the gun at anyone or making any threats ::
Step 2 for the local hand-wringers...make it up.
Granny has some gun control problems.
Finger inside the trigger guard and thumb on the hammer. Also, her barrel is (seemingly) pointed at the young ladies legs.
Saw the same thing. Granny needs more training ASAP.
THATS why I have a gun.
I would feel better if granny took her finger off the trigger and pointed her weapon in a safe direction.
A little common sense goes a long way. Does he seriously think he is HELPING gun owners with his behavior?
That’s a cool pic. My grandmother didn’t like her picture being taken so I don’t have anything like that but I do have one candid picture of her when us boys took her out plinking.
I suspect he believes he is.
It seems self evident that he is to me.
You do not regain your rights by being ashamed of exercising them.
The should be their Christmas Card, IMO.

Move to California ya pussy.
Maybe she always scratches hubby's ear that way. LOL.
You don’t debate rights, you exercise them.
And you do whatever is necessary to those who would deny you those rights.
