Open Carry Activist To Moms Group: ‘We Will Drive You Away By Force’
An Open Carry activist who brought a loaded weapon into a Kroger store in Kentucky with a baby in his arms has now threatened Moms Demand Action through a message sent via Facebook.
[su_center_ad]Tyler Lance Craddock previously tweeted, “GUN DOWN the illegal immigrants as they cross and they’ll get the message.”
Because murder is clearly what the Second Amendment was created for.
Craddock messaged the Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America’s Facebook page boasting about support he received from Kroger employees during his Open Carry exercises over the Summer. He went on to apologize to Moms who have had “a kid who was killed by a gun” but points out that it’s really their fault for not “taking self defense into your own hands.”
His Facebook message to the Moms gun safety group reads:
If they “ever make it down here to the south” Craddock writes, “we will drive you away by force, because we don’t like you.”
He then advises them to “get back in the kitchen.”
In February, Craddock’s profile picture featured a Confederate Flag. On the page, his wife (who may or may not be “in the kitchen” for freedom) expressed her support for slavery, which by the way, has been abolished.
It’s OK though, because she doesn’t want African Americans as slaves. She wants liberals.
Tyler on shopping at Kroger with long guns. I think he brought a rifle because his baby was armed a loaded diaper.
Tyler carries long guns into Kroger simply to “rub it in moms demand action’s faces.” [sic]
According to Craddock’s Facebook page, he left his job at Jim Beam on September 5th, so he’d better get in that kitchen.
Nothing says freedom like slavery and driving women out by “force” because you don’t like someone.
Kroger supports this man’s right to use their store so he can ‘rub it’ in Moms Demand Action’s faces.
Images and messages were circulated, or given to others via social media, therefore they are fair use by law. [su_csky_ad]

Another 100% certifiable NRA crony full of KKK hate. Makes me want to vomit (on him)….
Bianca Bradley September 26th, 2014 at 9:42 am
Based on what logic? The confederate flag, his wife sarcastic stance on slavery, using liberals?
Let me break that down for ya. It wasn’t KKK rhetoric, it was give them something to complain about rhetoric. Also Y’all got trolled. Shakes head.
Personally I support him for open carrying. It’s about time that people who whine incessantly get told to STFU. It’s up to the store, since its their property to set those rules. If it is allowed in the state and in the store, and you don’t like it, use your feet and shop somewhere else. Especially in a conservative state that is ok with guns.
He’s right, southerners don’t handle whiny people well. Even the southern liberals don’t handle them well.

Hey Bianca, STFU.

Lori Yannucci September 26th, 2014 at 10:43 am
Red-diaper, if you’re going to use words like “cogent” with Bianca, you really should provide definitions so she can keep up. Everybody knows the education standards in the South are dismally low. They’re too busy teaching the fairy tale of creationism and whining over the loss of God in the schools to actually teach anything of substance.

for nearly 150 years whining about the “war of northern aggression”. no one said “just” southern conservatives. but southern conservatives take a back seat to no one when it comes to self-indulgent complaining about non-issues.
Bianca Bradley September 26th, 2014 at 10:27 am
Oh, they certainly do. Code Pink, PETA, Democratic Underground, almost every group that has a mothers against something or other, Earth First, People who complain about Israel(but can’t manage to do any decent research )they all whine louder than any southern conservative could possibly manage.

“Something bad might happen mothers” – sure, like a child shooting a machine gun at a gun range might accidentally shoot the instructor. Or a toddler might find a loaded gun and shoot another child with it. Yep, those “something bad might happen mothers” certainly DO have something to worry about (as long as guns and their nutty owners are around, they do)

The self-serving gun hoisting, normally racist, paranoid, ill educated loons who would let an 8yr old waif handle an UZI. I like that he uses his baby as a shield too. Sweet. Keep it up………. They’re going to have to do something about the 2a, sooner rather than later.

“Overwhelming support” from four store employees? LOL! How about “overwhelming compensation” for your own personal ‘shortcomings’, Craddock? How effective do you think you would be in a real crisis with your iron penis slung on your back and your arms full of baby?
Kroger just lost my business for good.

That’s what I like about these asshats–they’re so considerate of the rights of OTHER citizens’…
Personally, I wouldn’t shop at a store that supports asshats over considerate people. I hope it backfires and blows up in Kroger’s face. The idea that moms should pack heat to protect their children while they shop for groceries is absurd on the face of it.
chezmoi September 27th, 2014 at 11:10 am
On the back and all sides, too.
M D Reese September 27th, 2014 at 2:51 pm
It’s nuts! I live in a bright red state and in a remote area. Just about everybody here has a few guns on hand, and there are pretty much NO gun laws. You can pack heat everywhere but the courthouse and the airport. And yet you rarely ever see anyone walking down the street with a rifle unless they are actually going hunting–and then they usually have their rifles unloaded and in a case. These open carry freaks would get laughed out of town.
Foundryman September 26th, 2014 at 1:04 pm
Sure hope he doesn’t need to use that rifle in a hurry….the baby won’t make a very good bullet proof vest…

Exactly. I’ve been saying this for years. 99% of “open-carry” advocates (i.e., people who conveniently ignore the “well-regulated” clause in the 2nd Amendment) are fat, limp-d–ked cowards. Real men fight with their fists. Ugly girly men fight with guns. Anybody can point a piece of metal and pull the trigger. These “men” couldn’t hurt a flea if they didn’t have their precious guns with them. I could beat the living s–t out of this dude in a fair fight. And he knows it — which is why he has to hide behind his gun.

I love going to FB pages like Kroger’s and Target’s to poke ’em with a stick. Man do they get mean. Especially if get wrapped up in a not. Hey, we as in many were on Target’s page for a long time. I’m not a mother, but I’m not about guns in public places, it ain’t good for our soul. I had a hard time finding Kroger’s home FB page, finally had to google it.

So fine I boycott Krogers and I will bet I spend a hell of a lot more there than this dufus.. Boycott!!! If these idiots with their big bad guns what to show off so much why not take them where needed to fight Isil .. Not to spread terror in the grocery store.. Goodbye Kroger they sell everything i need at Food City and Food Country
Bridgett Cash October 8th, 2014 at 8:35 pm
The only way to get these companies to grow some sense and ban these guns is to impact their bottom line. Then watch how fast they change their tune and their corporate policy. I haven’t been in Krogers for a month or so and that month I spent about $1000 extra dollars elsewhere that I normally would have spent at my local Kroger’s store.
kfreed September 29th, 2014 at 8:02 pm
“We Will Drive You Away By Force”
“Peacefully” by force, no doubt. Idiots.
I figure we can just divide the country up by businesses that allow gun nutters to show up armed and those that don’t. That way, those of us who aren’t frightened by unprotected grocery shopping won’t have to deal with imbeciles too stupid to own guns “accidentally” firing a round or two into shoppers’ skulls in the dairy aisle.
Bridgett Cash October 8th, 2014 at 8:33 pm
