It doesn’t make me any less “pro gun” if I don’t tote an AR around all day on my own time and look down on people who do. Going hunting, I may dip in to my favorite filling station for a drink and because I am known; nobody freaks nor bats an eye if I am openly strapped up. Or loading stuff in the truck.
But dudes wearing molle manpurses with their screenname in army tape on them draw attention.
It’s a complete and total turn off. Like lessay America was that oorah about guns where we walked around open carrying ARs just to hit up the Apple store. That’d be lame.
I am not yet to a point in life where going to the mall requires all that extra. And I refuse to get to that point in life.
A lotta Walter Mitty wackoff fantasies about foiling the next spree shooting. Super lame.
Plus a lot of gun guys have never been in a real fight before. A real fight is where you may not go home. Guns make you a target. Better be ready to fight for what you carry. There are FIT 20 year olds who get disarmed by force. A schlubby potbellied 50something DUI lawyer or salaryman just won’t bring it.
But the “gun people” take the meme too far and it resembles Dale Gribbles gun club and it annoys regular people.
See, these guys are the ones I would call fudds.
Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the President... - Theodore Roosevelt, Lincoln and Free Speech, Metropolitan Magazine, Volume 47, Number 6, May 1918.
Every Communist must grasp the truth. Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun. Our principle is that the Party commands the gun, and the gun must never be allowed to command the Party Mao Zedong, 6 November, 1938 - speech to the Communist Patry of China's sixth Central Committee
