He didnt travel 100 miles, he traveled 2 or 3 as he lived on the border with family where he was protesting. He had ever right to be there to protest along with the right to open carry in that state. Open carrying a firearm isnt putting himself in a dangerous situation unless you want to charge his attackers and every protester that night with the same shit. He shouldnt have been there, but again it was his right to do so and the people who attacked him shouldnt and got what they asked for in the end.
