This is an old one Mike. A few seconds after the video starts, an Aug 2007 date appears.

Not that its not appropriate. I'm speaking to the comment that its sad this sort ofthing hasn't been cleared up yet.

I wonder why the video is dated DEC 2008?

Dunno.

The blogger seems to be holding Ridley up as a shining example of activism. (He is, if you ask me.) The blogger also says something like, "If you haven't seen this video..." Perhaps its an incomplete way of saying its been around a while, but if you haven't seen it, you should.

Either way, its worth viewing again. Ridley does a good job handling the police.
 

no carry permit ?

Dave has had a few encounters over open carry, there is another one posted on Ytube. The best of Ridley in my opinion is the one where postal employees go crazy when he attempts to collect signatures on a petition calling for cuts in government spending, WHILE ON POSTAL PRROPERTY. Although that is legal according to the US Supreme Court, they apparently disagree. It is on Ytube and worth a watch.

In another petition signing event the police are called on him TWICE. Also pretty funny to watch. They tell him to turn off the camera and he refuses.

All of Dave's videos are available at http://ridleyreport.com/ . He frequently has pro-OC videos, such as NH residents doing trash pick up while carrying, as well as when he or others encounters problem while OCing.

In addition to OC he covers various other liberty oriented subjects. I always find him interesting, informative and thought provoking. Worth checking out and browsing some of his videos if you haven't.
