Was looking at the comic for today and somehow accidentally this video showed up.
Was...interesting.

The stupid was overpowering.  Didn't finish it.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Take heart. Kiddo #1 and new GF was over yesterday. 24 ish, she says, "I hear you have guns, can I see them?" Showed her pretty much the whole mess. She was loving every second of it. Now I believe they'll be coming to the range with me to shoot a few of them in the very near future. Damn kid, finds him a cute young girl who likes guns. Lucky SOB...  =|

If you wanna #$*@in' fall down a terrifying rabbit hole man, find these open carry forums and dig in, that's some scary #*@%.

Then there's the part where he's ranting about "open carry retards who want to take their pistol into Applebees" and then immediately using the Lowes ND as an example of, presumable, OC being bad, without any regard to the fact that that guy was CCW'ing. Don't forget the token "thank god he didn't shoot a child" comment, can't forget the children.

The ignorance is palpable but I can't tell if it's willful obtuseness or just the parroting of some lefty propaganda because they've never been exposed to the other side of the coin. The forum quip though does lend weight to the former..

I can always find an excuse to head up to CT.


Re OT, folks will see what they want to see.  I have no doubt they are not interested in learning about the issue, just finding something to make "reality" fit their opinion.  Not that I'm a big open carry guy myself, but if that's the only legal way of doing so...

Just as bad as the ones that want to carry umbrellas into Starbucks.  Who needs an umbrella in Starbucks? They have a roof.  It doesn't rain in there.  Someone could get poked!

What I found most hilarious is that Gabe and Tycho (Not their real names, Gabe is the skinny one) are supposedly internet tough guys, and from their comics in the past I'd have never expected them to be this stupid on an issue (Especially Tycho, since he always seemed pretty sharp).
This is my first time actually seeing them and hearing them.  I gotta say, they're extremely nerdy, but Gabe is a freaking super nerd.

And yea, they're dumb about gun issues too.
Not only is the ND in Lowe's irrelevant to the issue of open carry, he wasn't using a holster.
And you know what?  Thank God he didn't shoot a child.
