First of all, that picture is a much better representation of Columbus PDs attitude towards open carry than the video of last year's OSU walk and ought to have been posted in Varro's other thread
Secondly, "young varro" ought to know that that picture came about because of a bet MWSY made with another poster regarding Law Enforcement's attitude regarding Open Carry, and I believe someone STILL owes him a steak dinner for it
Thirdly, if one actually and honestly believes that that picture harms our cause because the antis might get a hold of it and use it against us, why are you the only person I know of who has it saved and why are you still posting it for the antis to find?
Fourth and last, that picture cost MWSY his position with OFCC, which was and still is a mistake, in my opinion.
It's been a year now that we've been searching for a volunteer to replace MWSY and head up the ORC 9.68 compliance effort, and we are still leaderless in this regard.
I can see that in some people's eyes, MWSY has contaminated himself and will NEVER be considered worthy, EVER again; bygones will never be bygones, some people would rather MWSY stay home and and OFCC does nothing on the 9.68 front than allow him to be a voice for the cause.
Evan Price has this line is his signature: "Striking down evil with the mighty sword of teamwork and the hammer of not bickering!"
Too bad that's not a common theme for our organization any more

No doubt. Hey, did you see where Texas is going to become an open carry state? I guess Open Carry Texas didn't cause as much damage as everybody thought.Chuck wrote:NOBODY eats their own like the pro gun movement does,,,,

The thing is, they're going to claim victory, when actually it passed in spite of, not because of, them
