Open Carry Celebration, June 27th 2009

In Celebration of July 4 and our rights as Americans, New Bethel Church will be hosting an OPEN CELEBRATION CHURCH service for all who support 1st and 2nd Amendment rights. It will be held on Saturday June 27th, the weekend before July 4th. It will begin at 5PM and picnic food will be served. We are asking responsible handgun owners to attend this service openly wearing their sidearm. This will be a Cold Range Carry meaning handguns must be unloaded and in a secure holster.

Area gun store/firing range owners will be invited to attend and tell about their services. There will be patriotic music and short presentation concerning responsible gun ownership and 2nd Amendment rights.

There will also be a raffle to win a handgun. All that is asked is that you bring a sidearm, a friend who has a sidearm and a canned good for local food bank.

For Info call: New Bethel Church

Before folks start grousing about the “Cold Carry” issue. How many of you have attended a competition or even just gone to the range where you were not required to “Cold Carry” your weapon? It is mainly a liability insurance issue. I go to Knob Creek and it is a “Cold Carry” range even when they are having their semiannual machine gun shoot.

I never heard of such a thing. It makes no sense to me, even with “liability” as an excuse. You do want to arrive at the range with weapons unloaded, but to walk around at this event with an unloaded weapon on your hip seems to be an exercise in futility. Everyone might as well carry a protest sign with a picture of a gun on it and call it “open carry.”

FYI, there is no NEED for the Supremes to consider 2nd Amendment “Incorporation”! FACT: The 2nd Amendment is SELF-incorporated to all government entities at every level. It is MORE ABSOLUTE than the 1st Amendment, or any of the others, because the wording forbids not only CONGRESS, but ANYONE from infringing on it. The 1st says “Congress shall make no law...”. The 2nd say “shall NOT be infringed!” Period! End of debate!
