This exactly.
Other than MTT, does anyone look at someone with a gun on their hip at the grocery store and NOT think “whoa, we’ve got a giant pussy here”?
Reminds me of my early 20’s bar hopping in the city, our rural friends would come meet us sometimes and always bring their guns. They were the biggest pussies ever.

Haven’t you seen MTT stumbling around the range? He’s like Jack Reacher

Only if you live in fear all the time. We're a mile from Cameron and Wallace Wade stadiums on Duke campus.Sat in our hot tub and listened to The Rolling Stones playing live outdoors there a few years ago. We're 2 miles from The Durham Bulls Athletic Park. We saw Hamilton at the downtown Durham Performing Art;s Center last Friday night. Tons of good shows there.
We're also less than 3 hours away from the best beaches in the nation and equal distance from skiing that's way better than the central MN and WI skiing I grew up in. Highest elevation lift served skiing east of the Mississippi.
If you consider that miserable that's on you. Only thing that sucks is too many damned people carrying guns and leaving them in their cars so now continuing the generational cycles of gun violence. I'm not going to contribute to that cycle of death, nor am I going to live in fear of it.Go that way really REALLY fast. If something gets in your way, TURN!

If only there was something we could do...
Im convinced the only way we will ever get gun control is if POC all started to open carry in massive numbers. Then legislation would get enacted and passed in about 5 minutes flat

Sounds like a war zone, or maybe you’ve never been in a war zone

"Best beaches in the country" is pretty f'n debatable. I've been to most of the bigger NC beaches and they're awesome but so are a lot places.
Saying shit like that might get you shot, to get back on topic.

Walked in to my neighborhood wingz and beer joint two days ago. Some guy in there is open carry. Dalton was behind the bar and we start discussing said guy. Eventually guy joins our conversation.
His only reason he had to carry a firearm into a bar was “it’s my right”. Never discussed protection at all. He had no good answers to any of our questions.
But it’s his right."boobs just make the world better really" - Woodsy

Couple years ago I was getting tires at Goodyear in Kennewick WA. I walk in and guy waiting at the counter has a gun in a holster. Fits the description Ted describes.
I turned around and waited outside in my car.Well maybe I'm the faggot America

In NH, gun on your hip means they're going to chew your ear about being a libertarian. Not as bad as getting shot, but still sucks the life out of you.

Free state project chose NH, so we have hardcore libertarians everywhere, in the "cut all services, I can do what I want variety."
Some predictable things happened when they went full re-errrr libertarian

I remove myself as quickly as possible from any locale with a visible gun.
Kind of like cops, if they're around, I make myself scarce because I want to minimize that kind of exposure.Merde De Glace On the Freak When Ski
