How's that now?

Will they be practicing the phrase, "or, I'll shoot you in the head."

Uh, what does open carry have to do with it?

Just wondering how long it would take for five SWAT teams to descend upon a couple guys open carrying some AR's.

Or open carrying anything period. Guns are evil and we live in a stasi police state "but its to protect us from terrorism" society now. Best to not tempt fate and give the anti gunners anymore ammo against
us.

I'm having a hard time getting really worked up about this. I think it has been pretty standard practice for SWAT teams for a loooong ass time to get training on various skills in the towns they're based in.

True, not full fledged yet but they are working on it!!

I still think it would be stupid to tempt fate and open carry that day just to prove a point to the tackey teams. It would not go so well me thinks.

I actually wanted to say this, but I'm sure the tinfoil comments will be out shortly.

You guys aren't the only ones thinking this.  Wonder just what type of exercise they are planning?  Any Appleton area members looking to do some recon?

Could be fun if you donned up in your Tier 1 tacticool gear and covertly joined up with them.  See how long it takes before they notice some extra guys in their squad.
