Associates defend man who had gun in school

As far as news worthy most definitely.

I don't know where you get your news but you found this. That said the Lefty run media mouths will close there eyes to this story. I know you don't really think this story will ever run on MSNBC. But I will venture to say it will be hitting other news stations that don't have the anti gun agenda.

Can you imagine a left wing anti gun activist doing this and the NHRA just letting it blow by.

I'm all for law and order and letting the prosecutor/judge decide this - it appears to be an honest mistake from what was contained in the article.

Context of an alleged crime is everything. A serious warning is apropos.

Sounds a little like a trusted neighborhood watch volunteer that was in the news a whole back.

I wouldn't get my hopes up on the NHRA losing their shit over this story.

The guy is a black community activist/organizer and I doubt that Wayne La Peeair will touch this with his shriveled up pole. It would make him look racist.

1. I have forgotten that I have a gun on me.
2. My concealed piece is designed to be lightweight.
3. You just forget that it's there as you go about your business.

If you're truly trained and comfortable with wearing a gun, it becomes like your keys and just disappears into carried mass. Where am I going with this? It is possible to "just forget." If he is armed all of the time, this is a plausible explanation.

I would trust someone who "forgets" more than someone who subconsciously taps their holster or pocket everywhere they go because it gives them security.

Ya but they don't have to make a negative case about it. Just bring to light that this is exactly what they were saying would be good.

I really think this guy is doing good things with the kids, although misguided in his stance.

He does need to get tried and prosecuted though. Which would also be a felony and a loss of gun rights.

Why would you wish a felony beef on this guy? Did you even look at the article?

I did way to much drinking and drugs in my early life to last 4 lifetimes.
