They Need Their Guns So They Can Threaten People

Who think they are idiots.

RWNJ's wouldn't know an amendment if it was read to them.

Their guns make them feel power when their intelligence makes them inferior.

Smart people don't seem to need to worship guns.

thinks they are going to be a Hero, is too paranoid to carry a gun, is not a friend of society.

Less than 10% of population find the need to strap on a gun to go out in public. The remaining 90% do just fine.

Working at a gas station, and kinda paranoid.

In fact (don't laugh) I had a fanny pack 9MM and a 380 on an ankle holster.

Times have changed.....

Since the only hang out with fellow Republicans, they are afraid of the very people they hang out with.

I admit I do. A few hand-me-downs, and a modern pistol because police response times out here can be over a half hour.

Just yesterday I had a DU poster tell me they kept TWO handguns in their car when they drove - one on their person, the other "within reach".

The only Amendment they know is the 2nd, and they know the preamble is meaningless.

Done with weapon. Lock it in the Arms Room. And this is with people trained to use their weapons.

These Don Knotts Clones must be scared shitless to go to the grocery store without an AR-15.

They make me puke.
