He's intentionally winding you up, Snurd. Resist the urge to engage or else you'll fall right into his trap.
What is the trap here fellows?
That Scalia has come out and clearly defined "bear arms" as coming to the defense rather than wearing in public?
That Scalia has come out and clearly allowed the States to regulate public carry outside the home?
That state constitutional carry has pro's and con's?
That walking into a restaurant that posts no-carry with your open carried firearm is both ignorant and ludicrous?
Which one? Take your pick of one or several. I have tried to make this easy for you.
And Scalia is God now. Just because he was a Right leaning judge doesn't mean every one has to bow down and believe what he says. He was one judge of many and everyone of them had a different opinion. We are unfortunately obligated to to live by the consensus of the court but that does not in and of itself make the court ruling right or just. The court has the power to force interpretation of the constitution as law and yes we follow that law. That does not mean we agree that here on and forever that is how it should be. We have been and will always be fighting to keep the 2A as uninfringed on as possible. Regardless of anything Scalia or anyone else says the 2A still says "the right of the people to KEEP and BEAR arms, shall not be INFRINGED."
Walking into a restaurant that posts no-carry with your open carried firearm is a personal choice to be made each individual and any repercussions of doing so is solely on that individual. Those repercussions are an evaluated risk by the individual and here is Utah the risk is small and easy to understand. If caught and you are asked to leave then you leave. If you do not and cause a fuss then you may be charged with Trespass. If you are willing to risk having to leave in the middle of your meal then so what.
