And having the right to do something doesn't make it the right thing to do.
Agreed, but that's just our opinions.
Mostly negative in one case, I'd say.
There's plenty of negative feelings about the Open Carriers.
Just look a little harder.
More than that I was comparing the use of the same tactic and the very different reactions they elicited.
So, again, which was the correct reaction?
I'd say the Panthers were probably onto something more than the Open Carriers are.
Two groups doing the same thing and you have different opinions about them?
What's this thread about again?
To be blunt I think the open carry crowd's a bigger threat to the private ownership of firearms than the government.
How so?
They're gonna open carry until the Gov says they can't?
So then it's their fault? and not the Gov's?
That's the stuff of conspiracy theories right there and come to think of it not bad at all.
The Gov wants to outlaw firearms.
The Gov sends agents to open carry and cause a ruckus.
Then.
They outlaw open carry in response to the "threat".
I think they're mostly a pack of angry, squinty, gutty jerks.
Well that's certainly an opinion.
I think they're macho strutting sphincters, for the most part.
That's two opinions, you know you could have just used commas and rolled those two sentences together like so;
"I think they're mostly a pack of angry, squinty, gutty, macho strutting sphincter jerks, for the most part."
Just sayin.
And I think if ever confronted with an actual threat they'd wind up doing more damage than anything else.
Or peeing themselves.
Which makes them no better or worse than anybody else.
It'd be good for a chuckle, anyway.:chuckle:
But not too funny.
They made themselves involved by showing up.
Which is what volunteers do.
To be clear, that's not why the Oath Keepers showed up.
Why did they show up?
