I support the right OF THE PEOPLE to carry a weapon openly or concealed, at their discretion. I also support the right of a PRIVATE business to prohibit carriage of weapons on its PRIVATE PROPERTY. This public servant in a silly costume was flagrantly violating the rights of the PRIVATE owners of the PRIVATE business ... however misguided we may think their exercise of such rights may be, we must respect their rights as we expect our rights to be respected.
I see, a silly costume. When I worked a graveyard and was coming back on a few hours later I wore my costume around town to run errands as by definition I was on duty 24/7. Piss on anyone that wanted my weapon while I was in uniform.
