    Then surely he doesn't need a Go Fund Me account right? Or does he make money off baiting and suing police depts ;-)

    Baiting police to intentionally break the law? Should not even be a question.

    Who asked a question? About the Go Fund Me yes my bad. As far as baiting and suing no question asked. Here's one though. When police entice one into criminal behavior it's entrapment. On the other side of the fence it's education and activism?

    I would just like to take a moment to clarify all of the above.
    I know Mr Cabrera and spent most of the night talking with him about all of this.
    To start with, he was not open carrying on campus. He merely submitted an inquiry to the school asking whether they had yet been trained on the new laws that went into effect on the first of the month.
    He ended up speaking with the resource officer to clarify the school's position. The resource officer then accosted him in the parking lot to determine if he was open carrying. However, he was not. If you believe that he was, then you must ask yourself why the school was not placed on modified lockdown, as per CCISD policy.

    I also have emailed the reporter at KRIS TV and clarified with him. The reporter did the story based on a note from his producer.

    Yes, he was arrested before. The charges were dismissed and the officer placed on desk duty. The reason he set up a gofundme account in the first place was that he was arrested and his family wanted to bail him out of jail but didn't have a way to transfer money easily to one central location. Some of his friends also asked if it would be OK if they were to contribute. It wasn't some scheme to make money, as has been implied. I should know. I was one of the contributors.

    Either way, it is now a moot story, in that the school has clarified its policies and Mr Cabrera has spoken with the resource officer again this morning and they have reached an understanding in the matter.

    My IQ is 171 +/- 3

    if someone is OC why would he need to be accosted to see ? And if he had hands laid on him I hope he is consulting an attorney.

    He's been arrested and cleared twice before, right?

    1) Fail to ID (when he wasn't legally required to, resulting in discipline and training for the officer and no prosecution past arrest for him)
    2) Assault on a Peace Officer (which didn't happen, he was cleared, etc. for?)

    Pretty odd because I had a recorded message from my daughter's school yesterday saying to expect a letter about open carry. I thought to myself they're being dramatic.

    They're probably planning to post a 30.07 sign at Miss Smith's 4th grade classroom door.

    Consider the crowd he advocates with. I think the guy on the end right could've picked a better shirt for their march and photo. I think these guys have good intentions but just lack tact and a little common sense in how they portray themselves and thus the rest of us by association when the media lumps all gun owners and open carriers together.

    I still don't understand why they have rifles.
