If you come protest at my graduation yea. Depends on whether open carry is legal. And then there is that pesky private property thing.

It is much more powerful to seek Truth for one's self.  Seeing and hearing that others seem to have found it can be a motivation.  With me, I was drawn because of much error and bad judgment on my part. Confronting one's own errors and bad judgment is a very life altering situation.  Confronting the errors and bad judgment of others is usually hypocrisy.

Last Friday was Robert's 8th Grade Recognition Ceremony.  The way things are done here is that after each name is read, everyone does a "Vasli" clap.  Then, once all the names have been read, you can clap, shout, yell, whistle, go crazy, whatever.

Seems to work...
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

That can only work when the audience members aren't screaming their heads off while running around the auditorium trying to avoid being caught.

That or they are willing to voluntarily agree to some few limits on their behavior.

More and more often I seem to be running into folks that should be told they need to use their "inside voice" when inside.  And the vast majority of them are too old to be in elementary school (even if they never did complete the curiculum).

stay safe.
If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

Hey you kids!! Get off my lawn!!!

They keep making this eternal vigilance thing harder and harder.  Protecting the 2nd amendment is like playing PACMAN - there's no pause button so you can go to the bathroom.

If they are responsible for their child then they need to pay up for their bad behavior.

I do not dispute this.  However it is the child, the student, who has earned that diploma as a major step into adulthood.  He or she isn't the one hooting and hollering. 

IE fine the parents/family, but don't hold the diploma hostage.
