To those who are not acquainted with the dubious practice of using public displays of firearms as a means to draw attention to oneself or one's cause, it can be downright scary. It makes folks who might normally be perfectly open-minded about firearms feel uncomfortable and question the motives of pro-gun advocates."<br /> <br />Yeah, no shit you fucking gun geeks.John Kurmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04607323621206823686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8581401473844438605.post-79230314385137109372014-06-01T07:38:21.163-07:002014-06-01T07:38:21.163-07:00That's my point.

And that whole armed society is a polite society is bullshit. Armed people are way more rude and aggressive that those who are not. They seem to think that having a gun makes people respect them. The only problem with that is they don't understand the difference between fear and respect. ellen abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535475792150335186noreply@blogger.com
