From Bearimgarms.com no less.

"Men like (open carry proponent) Nixon, who think that they should be able to carry any firearm they desire, to any place they desire, for any reason, come off as extremists to the vast majority of citizens in this country. This includes all anti-gunners (who think everything we do is extreme), the supermajority of those who don’t really think about guns much at all in the course of their daily lives, and the majority of gun owners as well.

The act of intentionally carrying a long gun past a high school (putting that school on lockdown) to city hall is seen as an intentional act of trolling by most citizens, and Nixon’s actions and attitude towards police only cement those views in place.

The Supreme Court of the United States has ruled time and time and time again that no rights are absolute. That’s not up for debate. You can get made about it if you like. but it simply is.

State and federal courts have—time and again—upheld laws shaping and restricting rights, including the right to keep and bear arms. If you doubt me, feel free to try to order a 20mm Lahti anti-tank gun and have it delivered to your door via the U.S. Mail.

Those who argue, “but it’s my right!” without any other convincing argument often run into the reality that the courts have held that no rights are absolute, and that when extremists piss off enough people with dangerous or juvenile behavior, that these rights can and will be curtailed via legislative action that will typically be upheld by the courts."

I said in another thread that not all gun owners are batshit crazy ammosexuals, but all batshit crazy ammosexuals are gun owners and it is time that the one group disown and disavow the other. Looks like Bearingarms.com has come to that conclusion as well.
