Not the Onion: Open Carry Group Protest at Dealey Plaza


A pink rifle, a guy complaining about the English not celebrating July 4, a preacher decrying sexual immorality, and (of course) a memorial to John F Kennedy at the spot he was shot.

No, I am not joking here,

They actually thought that it was a good idea to pack heat on Dealy Plaza as a way to win hearts and minds:

As they’ve been doing on each third Saturday for months, advocates for the open carrying of firearms gathered — semiautomatic weapons in tow — at Dealey Plaza over the weekend. As usual the demonstrators, who call themselves Come and Take It Dallas, handed out literature and preened with their armaments of choice.

Seriously. Really?
