I once thought open carry was retarded but am changing my mind. Now I want to have libtards seeing guns everywhere they go. Normalize it.

I’m kinda torn on normalizing it. I’m reminded of those street scenes in Blackhawk Down, where it was “normalized”.

When I finished my time in the military in ‘97, I saved up the cash to drive home to Colorado from San Diego through Texas to visit my mom.
When I stopped at a gas station in Arizona to fill up, I saw a whole bunch of people walking around with guns holstered on their hips.

Smiling, I thought, “I love my country.”

Always carry pepper spray so if a libtard gets in your face, you can hose them down without having to choose between backing down or escalating to lethal force.

Normalize it is the correct answer, and not that long ago it was normal. I graduated HS in 92, and all of us had gun racks in our trucks with rifles or shotguns in them depending on what hunting season was open at the time. And where did I grow up? Northern California.

So you see, it wasn’t that long ago, that the sight of a gun did not scare people. It did not immediately warrant a hail of gunfire from law enforcement.

The removing of guns from the public did a great disservice to the second amendment and to our country.

Now all I see is people talking about concealed carry, as if it is better than open carry. I would caution all on that, do we not remember history? At a time, it was considered nefarious to conceal a firearm, that your intentions must be bad if you hide it. That was how normalized guns were in the old days.

Oh and lastly, we need open carry, cause concealing a rifle is awful hard to do...

Exactly. There are a lot of folks, even here on FR who are against open carry. I'm not one of them. If enough of us do it often enough, it becomes normal, as it should be.
