re: #124 GeneJockey

Consider the source - a bunch of folks who want the world to be simple, all black and white, no grays, no nuance.

The assholes who do the Open Carry shit pave the way for somebody or somebodies to “Open Carry” into a crowded public place where they’ll be accepted as Responsible Gun Owners Exercizing Their Rights, right up until they open fire and kill a bunch of people.

Is that really THAT hard to imagine?

If we ever get that world in our country, I become an ex-pat. I’ve got no issue with people who want guns at home for protection, hunting, collecting, or target shooting but if you need your gun visible and ready to fire when you’re getting a burrito at Chipotle or coffee at Starbucks, you’re creating a culture of paranoia and fear.
