LordOfMud Posted June 5, 2015 Report Posted June 5, 2015 #4H# The story of a man who walked into Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport on Friday carrying a loaded AR-15 semiautomatic rifle. His actions were completely legal, thanks to Georgia’s gun laws. Passed in 2014, allows people to openly carry a rifle in an airport, so long as they don’t try to go through security. The armed Cooley was dropping his daughter off for a flight, when police officers approached Cooley, asking why he was carrying a semiautomatic weapon with an extended capacity 100-round drum. His response? “Safety.” According to Cooley, he was exercising his rights: “If you don’t exercise your rights, the government doesn’t have any hesitation taking them away,” Cooley told WBS-TV Channel.
