Gun control activists petition Chipotle to ban guns

[yukonjack]

I completely agree.

The problem the OC community at large has is finding ways to increase exposure without overwhelming and scaring the general populace.

Why do they need to increase exposure? If the law allows open carry they should just be happy with it and then LEAVE IT ALONE! Just because you got it doesn't mean you need to flaunt it. I said at the very first of this thread these guys were attention whores. That pic proved my point.

some people are their own, and our, worst enemies.
The pics are horrendous and didnt help at all and further showed the middle of the roaders that some gun owners are idiots and reinfforce the notion that perhaps there are too many guns out there.

Had I seen those dudes get out of there cars at a local eatery carrying like that I would have been on instant point, watching and probably thinking of 911 myself.

These douche bags wouldn't enter a gun store like that without asking permission, why would they think that it's acceptable to enter a restaurant that way.

The various amendments including the second, are oriented towards protecting the populace from the federal government. Not the states. Not private businesses.

Carrying a rifle into a restaurant to "protect your rights to carry a firearm" is asinine, monumentally stupid and publicly demonstrates the lack of common sense and good judgment that should be required when carrying a fire arm in public.


THIS is why we can't have nice things. Dumbasses.

I agree!

I'm sorry, but I don't understand the discussion that's going on here? Has everyone seen the picture that caused this kerfuffle? Because this:

Is indefensible. I don't care if you're pro-open carry, pro-open carry of long guns or whatever, that is inappropriate in the extreme. If it walks like a douche, poses like a douche and is generally acting like a douche while failing to represent anyone in any acceptable manner whatsoever, it's a douche.

Is someone in this thread actually attempting to defend douchebaggeris extremis???

Yep...those two pillow biters aren't doing to pro-2A community any favors.

My brother is in the Marine Corp and he says that, while he is allowed to eat in the Chow Hall when he has a rifle checked out, the rifle is to be between his legs the entire time and never carried like that.

Even then, individuals like those two walking in with any weapon attached to them would make me leery... They just look like the kind of people to start some trouble.

But maybe even the usual characters are getting tired of these backfiring open carry stunts. We can only hope.

Maybe Soros, Bloomberg, and their minions are paying these idiots. Wouldn't put it past 'em.

Unfortunately, that would be to clean.

These people exist. Deep sigh....

Those two look like prime candidates for natural selection.

I agree those clowns were just looking for attention.

By "exposure" I mean letting people in general see that a firearm can be carried responsibly and without threat or incident.

A right not exercised is a right lost, and if the general populace can see that open carry doesn't have to be threatening then it makes the anti's arguments against carry in general more difficult.
