TX:Guns Rights Group Says Member Unlawfully Arrested for Carrying Rifle in Public

I would say that the insane "gun free school" policies caused the school to go on lockdown, not a veteran peacefully exercising his constitutional rights.   Otherwise the article is fairly good at explaining what happened.

ANDREWS - A fierce debate is heating up again in Andrews. A gun rights group is upset because one of their members was arrested on Wednesday afternoon after carrying around his rifle in public. The whole thing caused a nearby school to go on lockdown.

"He was just calmly walking," Arthur said. "You wouldn't think anything of it unless he didn't have a gun."

But moments later, the middle school was put on lockdown and Arthur said Keoughan was surrounded by police.

He was eventually arrested. Another viewer took a picture as it happened.
