I prefer a more low-key approach. Under the radar.
The lefties are showing a video of a foul-mouth moron insulting and humiliating people while me beragged about “excising his 2nd amendment rights”.
With friends like that, we don’t need enemies.
One minute, the NRA is a force of evil, the next minute, they’re the voice of reason. Pick a side, libs.
As I stated on another thread:
This is to the second amendment what shouting fire in a crowded theater is to the first.
Nothing weird or scary about them.
I’ve been on the record for years here at FR that these OC groups have been over the top. I’ve been insulted and cussed out for years too. But there is a fine line between defending your 2A rights and abusing them. Grisham and his people do us no favors.
Now it looks like the NRA agrees.
Sheesh. What is with all the second amendment hate here?
I carry open on occasion and concealed all the time. I like to have options. It is rallies like this that are making it safe to carry concealed. How you ask? Because in places where no one ever sees a gun they freak out if you accidentally show your concealed carry piece. Accidents can happen it is not cool to have the cops storm in and gun you down. In places with open carry people are use to seeing ordinary citizens with guns. I see them all the time around here and I find it comforting. Not everyone wants to ask for permission to exercise a right. And don’t give me any of that blah blah concealed is better. Sure it is... so is walking around in body armor but not every ‘better’ option is always practical. I like having options and I am sick and tired of so-called allies telling me which options I should and shouldn’t use. Yall and the ATF and all the other haters can buzz off.
Just because you can, doesn't mean you shouldn't exercise better judgment and NOT.
I support these efforts to raise consciousness about the benign nature of guns in society, and to work for open pistol carry.
I only wish that the NR, instead of wetting its pants, was in the lead. They should be using meetup websites to organize special events, creating camaraderie among gun owners, and generating powerful events. Consider the beneficial optics of these images:
1. A bunch of bikini-clad 20-somethings with rifles on their backs is running a charity carwash (to raise money for the NRA (sling carefully to avoid denting the cars). The sponsor could provide reilfes to show how they hold up on a hostile environment. (Good for a state with open pistol carry for obvious reasons).
2. A red-hat type meeting of elegant little old ladies with rifles slung on their back meets for tea at a fine old hotel.
3. A contingent of rainbow-clad flaming gays on a pride parade is carrying real rifles as a precision rifle corps.
4. Lawyers in business suits go out for a power lunch downtown with AR-15s on their backs.
5. Parents with toddlers, and babies in strollers also carry rifles on a kiddie “play date” at the park.
Honestly, if we think like gay activists, there will be a gun toting (good, likeable) guy on every show on TV in 20 years, and people will think it’s silly to ban guns in special places like schools and churches, because they don’t cause problems anywhere else.
The NRA coined the phrase “Sporting Purposes of Firearms” that gun grabbers use to this day. The NRA has been behind every single major federal gun control law on the books including the 1934 NFA and the 1968 GCA.
The NRA is NOT anyone’s friend.
