Armed Open Carry Group To Wear ‘Hands Up Don’t Shoot’ T-Shirts At Kroger. No Really.

?resize=520%2C348

Kory Watkins (R-Fedora), leader of Open Carry Tarrant County will meet today along with hundreds of his friends at a Kroger in a mostly black and Hispanic area of Arlington, Texas for what they are calling the Massive March Against Police Overreach & Brutality.

-snip-

Kory has invited some 5,200 people and 486 have said they plan to attend. Another 128 answered with ‘maybe’ as to whether they’re going.

Kroger is currently the target of a very public campaign to end open carry in stores, so it seems he’s using recent tragedies to further his agenda.

To add to that, he’ll be wearing a “Hands Up Don’t Shoot” t-shirt while carrying a rifle.


This is Zack and he will be attending. It appears that he drives around naked. It’s against Kroger’s policies to allow someone without their shirt on inside of their stores, but openly carrying firearms is cool.

If the "mostly black and Hispanic" residents of this neighborhood showed up armed along with hundreds of their friends and began walking through stores, I am afraid the results would be tragic.

Hell, if a single black 12-year old with a toy gun showed up, the results would be tragic.

Skydivers carry a strap knife. If someone were to use one to relieve a Moron Labe type of his binky, would "but officer, he told me to!" be sufficient defense?

Apparently he has some issues with the law. PS,did you know he originally was running against Barton and Cozad for district 6?
