And as AOC says, "Where were all the police?" Didn't need any Babe - they had it covered. No it's not. It's fantasizing wannabe's holding what they can only dream was their pecker.

You can't have a logical discussion, so it becomes some decades old junior high school "pecker" response. You've got your rigs; he's got his guns. Maybe the two of you can rub pecker heads and the first one that smiles; loses. I have guns, rigs and a Harley - I win. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seriously, he didn't show up in hip boots with a drooling Labrador, toting a Remington 870 Wingmaster, and tooting his duck call. Nor is he a Civil War reenactor. Nope, he's just a garden variety wannabe militia man dressed up in his surplus store war suit, toting his useless weapon and being a goddamn idiot in public.

Same old liberal agenda - wanting to tell others how they should fit in their view. So, it's ok if he's carrying a gun dressed like a hunter or a civil war reenactor is ok. - is it ok for the hunter to carry what ever kind of weapon he wants? Whose permission does he have to get to dress like a militia-man? Or, is this just another case of, "ooooh, that looks scary - ban it!?" 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, now, that kind of applies to both liberals and conservatives. How many conservatives don't want to be exposed to open homosexuality, anything having to do with non-cis-gendered thought, and the like? One only hears the people who characterize everyone as being the same, not the ones who treat us as individuals. Wendy P. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Those who are uninformed will always be afraid of what they don't or are unwilling to know. No difference. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whose permission does he have to get to dress like a militia-man? Or, is this just another case of, "ooooh, that looks scary - ban it!?" For one, reenactors are, well, reenacting. Every accoutrement, including their arms, are period replicas. It's about history, not fantasy. You do get that, right? Did I argue that the hunter should be able to show up with any weapon? Nope. I mentioned a favorite shotgun in very common use by duck hunters. If you weren't so sensitive over the subject you might have as easily concluded he was there in support of Duck Hunting, Duck calls, Labradors or even drool. Ask yourself, why are they all dressed up in homemade war suits, toting military looking weapons, and looking ready for the call to a homemade war? Why aren't there any 16 year old boys and girls toting .22 Mossbergs carrying sign saying Rabbit Hunters for the Second Amendment in their mix? You can go on hating it until hell freezes over but it's as much a cult as anything else. For many, they are finally a part of something big. And they get to play dress up and carry AR-15's, and Military sniper rifles and have Glocks on their hips just like the real guy's. Just ask good ol' Corporal Corpulent.

Neither of those points are in question. Get this right Keith, the right to bear arms in America, as gifted by DC v. Heller, does not require anyone to wear a surplus store war suit when exercising that right. That is a choice made for entirely different reasons. Otherwise why not uniform yourself in Swiss Guard Pantaloons, an Eisenhower jacket, and a Fez hat? The obvious reason is that would not be acceptably militia looking enough for your clan.

That is why it is not benign. Along with the assumed identity comes a sense of belonging. We do not need to relearn how cults can manipulate followers into committing the most dastardly of acts; acts their own families would never believe possible of them. It might happen in an underground parking garage at a fertility clinic, at a Federal Building in Oklahoma, in the Kool Aid line somewhere or, possibly next, at a wall on our southern border. Armed, already in groups, and ready to defend their sense of self in the name of some perceived horror inflicted on the clan, they'll be ready. And so will their masters. Nothing happening in our nation requires the aggregation of heavily armed, angry, white men, dressed in camouflaged and possessed of paramilitary fantasies. No good can come of it. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
