Man removed by PD for carrying at St. Joe County polls

[Titanium_Frost]

I wrote to Casey at 95.3 yesterday about this and got a reply last night. I'll share it here now with you.




His reply:




Anyone know if he's issued an apology yet or not?

According to Clay's family yes he announced his apology already.

 

[HICKMAN]

My polling place is on an Elementary school property

Yeah, mine's in a courthouse.

 

[Scutter01]

The same way some people enforce laws that do not exists

I had this image of our intrepid Sheriff forcing people to protest outside of the town hall at gunpoint. "You're going to have freedom of speech or else!"

 

[mydoghasfleas]

To "Protect" is not as fun as to "enforce". It has the word "force" right there in it.

Or, them telling someone put this gun on your hip and like it and don let me search you.

Covered 2 Amendments.

I'll smile as soon as I'm done coughing from laughing so hard.

Of course not - I voted from Indy. But it's a poll on a South Bend TV stations's website, so that's the perception.

(And I wasn't surly at all.)

I think he meant to call you "Shirley"

 

[HICKMAN]

Could always do Empty Holster.

wonder if that might prompt a vehicle search, lol

 

[HICKMAN]

Sorry to say that I see this differently. I watched the newscast, and I agree that the media went way overboard on this, but...

The Clown, and I mean this in every sense, went to the poll with his gun on display and was well aware that the open carry would cause an issue.
Me? I went to my polling place too, and I was carrying also. But mine was concealed...I voted and left.
I maintain that those who carry openly are attention seekers. Maybe they don't get enough attention at home.
It has been my experience that those who most often carry openly are the newly licensed youngsters who want to strut and show off and say to the world, "Hey...Look at me! I have a gun on my belt and I want you to see it!"

They are silly fools. Immature.

The Brady campaign loves people like you.

They hate those of us who OC because they fear we are trying to "normalize" guns in our society. Imagine that, not having people cower in fear over seeing a gun on an American citizen's hip.

We may seek attention, not for self, but our cause.

There are several videos on Youtube where the Brady camp discusses this around the Starbucks debate.

I'm happy you carry, but don't chastise those of us who go a step further to remind or educate American's that they actually HAVE A RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS.

If the possession of an inanimate, non-mechanical leather or plastic object whose sole purpose is to hold something up and is not illegal to possess ANYWHERE in the United States prompts a vehicle search, (and you aren't doing something strange to attract attention and make people suspicious,) I feel that you would have a very good case against whoever searches your car.

Of course they dont have a comments page to call them on their BS.

I'll tell you what, it's threads like this, seeing Kirk and Guy talking about defending our legal rights has me wanting to figure out a way to go to law school in the evenings, just to add another person to the fight!

 

[Pitmaster]

How does one "Enforce" the Bill of Rights? Shouldn't he be "Protecting" that instead?

I think what is meant is the Sheriff is to "enforce" the Bill of Rights upon government to protect citizens from the violating our rights. I didn't completed read the website but I did read something about this position and power that Sheriff's have recently. If I have time tomorrow I will follow up.

Kinda like the Sheriff in IN that wrote to the FDA that if they showed up at the dairy farmers place again without a warrant, him and his men would remove and/or arrest them.

.......Since when do we have a constitutional right to be comfortable?

Haven't you heard about OWS? Or BHO's wealth distribution plans?

According to them, everyone has a right to be comfortable.....at your expense.

You would be absorbed into the Collective. Resistance is futile.

A couple of folks make it through unscathed, but don't count on it.

Please site the code that makes it illegal to carry at Indiana colleges.
