ADVOCATES OF CARRYING UNCONCEALED WEAPONS TOOK A TRIP TO THE ZOO IN BOISE, IDAHO SATURDAY. MEMBERS OF OPENCARRY-DOT-ORG DREW ATTENTION BY TOURING THE ZOO WHILE PACKING GUNS ON THEIR HIPS, AFTER SOME INITIAL CONFUSION ABOUT WHETHER IT WAS LEGAL TO BRING AN UNCONCEALED GUN INSIDE. LOCAL POLICE QUESTIONED THE COMMON SENSE OF BRINGING A GUN INTO A ZOO AND ANOTHER PARENT SAID GUNS MAY HAVE BEEN INAPPROPRIATE IN SUCH A SETTING.

OPENCARRY-DOT-ORG CO-FOUNDER JOHN PIERCE DEFENDED THE GATHERING,

"THIS PARTICULAR TRIP WAS JUST ONE OF MANY ACTIVITIES THAT LAW ABIDING GUN OWNERS DO EVERY DAY WITH THEIR FAMILIES AND IN THE COURSE OF BUSINESS"
