Scary, "White", Gun-Toting, Racist Protesters


Wait a minute. It's a "man-of-color"/black man carrying the gun -- who, by-the-way, has an awesome mustache!(see video below) I don't hear any anger about the president being black. The only people talking about his race?: Liberals! msnbc = liar.




Hey lady, why are you accosting this guy!? Go read the 2nd Amendment!

P.S. That's a SEMI-automatic firearm that lets the user discharge at about the same rate as any pistol you'd see a police officer carrying.

Giving the Gov't the Finger

I'm thinking of getting a CCW(Carry of a Concealed Weapon) permit. However, the govt want's my fingerprints and I don't think I want the govt having them. And I wondered why I felt this way; I have nothing to hide. Eventually I thought to myself, "Why does govt need my prints when getting a CCW permit? Fingerprints make me think of committing crimes (like robbery). I have a bit of a problem with this:

Isn’t it law-abiding citizens who get CCW permits not criminals? Who do you think are going to be committing crimes thugs or CCW permit holders? If I've obtained a CCW, why do you suppose I got one? To defend myself? Or to rob somebody? I’m carrying for self-defense, dammit!

I’m no forensics expert, but as far as I’ve been able to gather from the movies is, the only reason you'd need to dust for prints is at the scene of a home or business where a crime has been committed, right? If someone is looking to commit some armed crimes, they sure as hell don’t need a CCW permit!

Its not the thugs & criminals who are getting CCW licenses; its the law-abiding citizens who are getting CCW permits using their gun for protection(in public, mind you).

Armed & Dangerous Defending Us

While on vacation a few weeks ago, I had an interesting conversation with my sister’s BF. He seems like an amiable bloke (from my interactions with him). I really like him. During chit-chat we started talking about guns(maybe b/c I’d just taken a CCW course about a week before). We disagree somewhat about whether or not people should be allowed to carry a firearm in public(concealed or not).

He was pretty uneasy about folks carrying guns in public.
But I’m not. And after talking with him a while longer, I think I came to the proper conclusion as to why we each thought the way we did.

He lives and works in the ghettos of Akron, OH. So when he thinks of someone carrying a gun, he pictures a thug.
I live in one of the nicest ‘burbs of Denver CO, so when I think of someone carrying a gun, I’m picturing a pretty good guy looking to protect himself and others.

Who do you think is going to be carrying openly or getting a Concealed Carry Permit? A guy looking to rob someone? Or a guy looking out for himself(and possibly others)? Hint: You don’t need a CCP to rob someone and I doubt you’ll see Tupac with a sidearm in a holster on his hip.
