I suppose he thinks all the "black guns matter" shirts were literally talking about black guns, as apposed to chrome 45's. My apologies. I didn't notice them as they were all invisible wearing inner city camouflage. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BIGUN 1,053 #52 January 24, 2020 Well, his whole argument is based on fear. Fear of other cultures and scary looking weapons. So, I just thought I'd throw in a little mechanism of cognitive dissonance and watch his head explode. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Remember what that was in response to? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Barrett .50 or whatever Corporal Dipsy-Doodle is hugging looks stupid and unnecessary. His get-up makes him look even dumber. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So it it the fatigues that the White Guy is wearing that you have an issue with? I thought in an earlier post it was the other hardware, like vests, and ammunition belts. Just to be clear - you don't find any issue with the AKs and the ARs that the crowd is holding. . . it is JUST the camo/vest combo, but only on the white guy.. Is that about right? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No it's as wrong as you can get. Well, probably not. Seriously, how can you have read my posts and think my issue is dress code violations? No matter, BIGUN liked it so you have that. But these day's anyone can get a merit from Keith just for saying my socks stink. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And in Peart we see something of the traditional journey in life - a youth spent writing songs about lust and good times, an early adulthood discovering Ayn Rand and her "amazing ideas" and a later mellowing as his awareness expanded. And much of that evolution is recorded in his lyrics - it's cool to go through them over the years and see how his perspective changed with time.
