It is a matter of your perception. My rights are not determined (or at least should not) be determined by your perceptions and fears.
In my world, seeing someone with a loaded weapon would not cause any concern at all, unless it was used in a threatening manner. Then he would be confronted.
I am more concerned about a fist than I am about a loaded weapon.
I thought I made it quite clear I know those are the rights.
In fact I know I did
I am just saying that my natural reaction to seeing someone with a rifle, a rifle that is loaded, is to be nervous.
maybe that comes from being a Mother and always on alert.
It is interesting that your first reaction is to assert YOUR rights are all that are important to you.
No mention about the feelings and concerns of those around you.
I have NOT said you do not have that right and I would NEVER want that right taken away.
Could YOU not assert your rights just the same with something in the barrel of your rifle to show it is not loaded?
