But coming to a peaceful public gathering armed and decked out like that its not the message they were sending. The message they sent was meant to intimidate and say “We really want to kill you because you are exercising your constitutional right and we do not like you doing it.”, which oddly enough is a pretty standard far left wing thing and was more recently demonstrated more violently with the murder of Charlie Kirk. That’s a defining trait of the left wing, if they do not like what you do, or they want you to do something else and you don’t, they feel they have a right to use force to intimidate you into not doing it or stop you (with force) from doing it.

Orrrr…the anti-gun left wingers were doing one of their faux ‘drama queen’ skits trying to scare people into siding with them. After all, they would say, ‘Our professional law enforcement is so scared and you should be too.’ right before they scream ‘ban guns’.

You now how dramatic they like to get, ya know, like the “rivers of blood in the streets” thing.

Think about it. When it was just concealed carry for law abiding did the cops there act this way even they knew people had guns in public? The only difference here is its also open carry for law abiding and makes not one bit of difference as possession is still possession be it open or conceal carry.

Personally, I’d be worried about the cops more than anything in this case. I mean, over reacting is not a good look and does not give a sense of confidence in their abilities that they would not imagine something else was happening and over react there too. If you feed people, even police officers, the narrative that a danger exists where none exists there will be some of them that will imagine and believe they see a danger where none exists.
