[Chimuelojones]

I'm puzzled as to why 2nd A advocates have not come to the defense of young Andy Lopez' right to carry his weapon in public?

Does the 2nd Amendment say anything about "putting down" weapons if ordered by the police?

All good, any time I take a break for the P&OC forums for a couple of days I end up spending 20 minutes just trying to catch up on a few of the topics.

A better question is why do all the anti-gun people give gangs a pass on their gun culture?
