The Maven – by Holly Matkin Benbrook, TX – A Texas father’s afternoon visit to a local park prompted a police response, after a woman alleged that the man’s pro-gun Warrior 12 shirt was making other parents uncomfortable, police said. Troy Johnston and his two daughters, ages four and six, stopped at Castle Park on March 30, so the children could enjoy the park’s swings and maze, he told Blue Lives Matter. Johnston said he was openly carrying his handgun in a holster on his hip, and was also sporting a Warrior 12 shirt emblazoned with the words, “I’LL CONTROL MY GUNS, YOU CONTROL YOUR KIDS” across the back. The shirt also featured an image of an AR-15 rifle. “I figured I might get some comments or looks,” Johnston said. “[But] I was legally exercising my First and Second Amendment rights.” Approximately 30 minutes after the kids began playing, a man approached him with his wife and daughter in tow, Johnston said. He said the man told him that a woman was “fuming” over the message on Johnston’s shirt, as well as the fact that he was armed. “I thanked him for letting me know, and continued playing with my kids,” Johnson said. A short while later, another man and his family approached Johnston, and asked to read his shirt, he said. Johnston showed him his shirt, at which point the man warned him that his father-in-law had just been harassed by woman in the parking lot, and that she was contacting police regarding Johnson’s attire. The man told Johnston that he didn’t know “what was wrong with her,” and that he actually “felt more secure knowing there was someone there that would protect them,” Johnston said. Although he had intended to leave prior to his conversation with the second man, Johnston said he opted to wait for police once he became aware that they had likely been called to the area. According Benbrook Police Department (BPD) Corporal J. Reese, a woman contacted the department at approximately 3:21 p.m., and reported a “suspicious person” with a “gun holstered to his chest,” was wearing a shirt that read “You control your kids, I’ll control my guns.” Cpl. Reese arrived at the scene, where he made contact with the woman. She claimed that Johnston “was making other parents on the playground very uncomfortable with his t-shirt,” the corporal wrote in his report of the incident. “The subject did not act threatening to anyone, nor did he threaten anyone.” The woman told police she was not worried about the gun – which officers noted was located on Johnston’s hip, consistent with the information he provided to Blue Lives Matter. “She was not scared of the gun,” Cpl. Reese said. “[She] was concerned about his t-shirt.” Johnston “voluntarily identified himself” to police as he sat in his vehicle, the corporal noted. “I offered my LTC to the cops. They didn’t ask,” Johnston told Blue Lives Matter. Cpl. Reese described Johnston as “polite,” and said he confirmed the woman’s account of what had occurred. “Johnston advised he knew the police had been called, and was waiting to speak with officers,” the report read. “He was simply at the park playing with his two daughters.” Johnston said that, as he spoke with police, the woman looked on from 25 or 30 feet away. He said she began cautioning everyone who walked near her to avoid the park, because “there’s a man with a gun.” “She was highly ticked off,” Johnston said. The irate woman never spoke to him directly, he added. “Everyone else at the park seemed perfectly fine with it,” he told Blue Lives Matter. Having done nothing wrong, Johnston was allowed to leave the area, police said. “I cannot believe how the media has convinced so many people that guns are scary,” he said. “This lady was having a literal panic attack.” Despite the controversy, Johnston said he had no intention to quit wearing his Warrior 12 shirt. “I love my shirt,” he said. “I’ll probably order more just so I can wear them every day I’m off of work.”

This happens hundreds of times a day across America. Good cops appeasing the ignorant twat complainant by responding to the call... and upholding the public’s constitutional rights.
I'm the infidel... Allah warned you about. كافر المسلح
Oxymoron ox·y·mo·ron A "pro-choice" t-shirt is much more offensive.
a figure of speech in which apparently contradictory terms appear in conjunction Deckard,are you seriously trying to claim there are NO reasonable and rational cops? You have never met even ONE? Seriously? If you have never ridden a Harley,I recommend you don't start now,although it's not as bad as it used to be. Especially if you are one of those "weekend warriors" that get all leather and chained up on the weekend,load their new Evo into the new trailer and tow it to some park somewhere,where they then ride it around and strike poses. BTW,maybe one of the funniest things I have ever seen was a guy on teebee who was the prez or VP of a "Navy Biker Club" that had his bad skull bandana and leather vest full of patches on,and one of the patches was his "road name: "Chicken Hawk" I shit you not. Talk about clueless! Or at least I hope he is clueless,anyhow. He was career Navy,so it's hard to tell. The whole "shipmate/bunkmate" thing. In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments.
What do you have against people having choices? You sound worse than most cops. You DO realize that NOT having an abortion is also a choice,right? In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments.
No, she was having a self-induced hysterical shit-fit. It's what the Lefties do to get attention and blackmail others into obeying them.
I was reminded of this playground brouhaha while reading this short bit over at AoS. Oh, and also: They are saying they shouldn't be punished, because that would hurt them mentally. Some of them claim to have heard racial epithets issuing from the alumni -- but note only the "student" activists claim this, and the crybullies make this type of claim an awful lot. No one else heard these Phantom Slurs. But this is so hilarious: The "protesters" who hijacked the event are further whining that someone should have removed the alumni with the legal right to be there, so that the trespassers could feel "safe." Reason adds: OMG. They're just mentally retarded. I thought "crybullies" was an apt description.
Probably a school Teacher Principal WeT her panTs Love If you ... don't use exclamation points --- you should't be typeing ! Commas - semicolons - question marks are for girlie boys !

Duke "Student" Activists Hijack Alumni Event; Are Shocked to Find the People Whose Event They Hijacked Criticizing and Jeering Them; Whine That the People Who's Event They Hijacked Should Have Made Them Feel Safe
—Ace of Spades "Instead of actually going to the alumni and saying 'that's not appropriate' or removing them from the space, they were more worried about us," Cracknell said. This was not an uncommon opinion among the protest's leaders. Nuzzolillo expressed disappointment that the adults "whose job it is to care for us" failed to do so.
