Gun control groups accused of ‘swatting’ open-carry permit holders, putting lives at risk

Second Amendment groups are accusing the gun control lobby of putting law-abiding owners of firearms in danger by urging people to call the police on anyone carrying a gun in public.

As more states relax rules about open-carrying of guns, the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence has taken to social media to urge the public to assume gun-toters are trouble, and to call the cops on anyone they feel may be a threat.

“If you see someone carrying a firearm in public—openly or concealed—and have ANY doubts about their intent, call 911 immediately and ask police to come to the scene,” the group wrote on its widely followed Facebook page. “Never put your safety, or the safety of your loved ones, at the mercy of weak gun laws that arm individuals in public with little or no criminal and/or mental health screening.”

Press charges against them for misuse of the 911 system. After a few cries for wolf the cops will start checking callers. Very much like false fire alarm calls will get you a fine here.

If I see someone open carrying a handgun in public, I wouldn't worry too much about it. But if some asshat is walking the street with an AK or AR, you can bet that I'll be making a call to the cops to at least check him out.

Better still - they should be charged with Conspiracy Against Rights under US Code Title 18 Chapter 13 Section 241.

As an experiment, I'd like to put all the progressive liberals on an island somewhere. Then go back in 10 years and see what kind of utopia they've created. My guess is they'd all be dead. Too many easily offended people and nobody to do any real work. Plus no guns for defense or to hunt they'd all starve unless they all became vegetarians but then who would do the farming to raise the veggie's.

Maybe global warming will get them!
