THIS is the quote of this whole thread!!! :banana: <laughs> <lmao>
Eff the masses. Right in the neck. I open carry very often. If they looked shocked, they need to get back to the real world. It's not "calm and comfortable" like they want to envision it - it's rough and hard, and there are a$sholes on every corner looking for them, as they are easy prey...
I've had a few of those freaked out people ask me why I carry - I tell them, "You better practice your Second Amendment Rights if you want to Preserve them - otherwise, you will lose them..." They blink... then walk away.
If you are unarmed, you are a victim. Sooner or later.
It's like bikers, and the rule of the road - there are only two kinds of bikers. Ones that have been down, and ones that are going down. You better be prepared when you go down, or you're gonna be hurt...
