The Empty Holster Gathering Mar 3, 2004 10:40:04 GMT -5 Quote Select PostDeselect PostLink to PostMemberGive GiftBack to Top Post by RS Davis on Mar 3, 2004 10:40:04 GMT -5 [glow=red,2,300]Rick Stanley Wrote:[/glow]When told of the "Empty Holster Gathering," Stanley said, "Fill 'em up." Fill those holsters with lawful weapons of choice. I paid 102 days in jail for that right, and I urge every American to lawfully exercise the right to openly carry a weapon in Brighton, Colorado during the Empty Holster Gathering. While Stanley is out of jail on a $25,000 bond and unable to possess a weapon because of the special conditions imposed by the court, Stanley will wear an empty holster throughout the trial, but urges the Empty Holster Gathering to "Fill 'em up" per the state constitution, SB-25 and our 2nd Amendment rights. Mr. Stanley went on to say, "I hope every law abiding gun owning citizen will come to this event in Brighton, Adams County, to show judges of this country that our right to keep and bear arms and our First Amendment right to petition the government for redress of grievances are 'fundamental' rights not to be granted to Americans as 'privileges,' by judges operating outside the boundaries established in the Constitution under the fraud of 'color of law.' This event will establish once and for all, that Americans will not tolerate 'judicial activism' or the 'Police State of America.'" - Rick
