Men armed with AR-15's walk around in Portland to 'educate' people on gun control

On Wednesday, a pair of geniuses took a stroll in Portland's Sellwood neighborhood carrying rifles, one an AR-15. Alarmed residents dialed 9-1-1, and the Creative Minds Learning Center on Southeast 13th Avenue went into lockdown.

And why wouldn't they? Clackamas Town Center, traumatized by a mass shooting just weeks ago, is only miles away. A reasonable person who spies a couple of 20-something men toting serious weaponry in the middle of a city is more likely to think "shooting spree" than "Second Amendment advocates bent on educating the public." Which, apparently, is what Steven Boyce of Gresham and Warren Drouin of Medford believe themselves to be.

Portland bans the possession of loaded guns in public places, as The Oregonian's Everton Bailey Jr. reported. But that prohibition doesn't apply to people who hold concealed handgun licenses, as Boyce and Drouin do. Responding officers, having determined that the two men are licensed, didn't check to see whether the rifles were loaded but presumed that they were, says Sgt. Pete Simpson, a Police Bureau spokesman.

That's the worst attempt at firearm education I've seen. They had to have known that wa s a sh!t idea. at these fools thinking they would get anything but a negative response.
