And how can you take somebody serious when you're wearing this type of OWB rig?
I must confess I didn't even notice the carry rig, at first

as long as she doesn't think that to check the chamber you look down the barrel she's as skilled as at least %10 of NES.
Interview with Ms. Yewman and a few others [bs1]
You are assuming she wasn't instructed sufficiently? She has zero credibility(demonstrated liar), motive and history of spreading false propaganda.I haven't read the whole thread, but I did read the article. The shop owner should have spent some time with obviously a brand new owner and showed her how to operate the firearm and strongly push an NRA Basic Pistol class.
I do not agree with some of the sentiments that she should not own a firearm. With some training, she might even enjoy shooting. I'm sure the other instructors here have had students who were scared of the firearms and were good shots and have had the students contact them later asking for advice.
If he had, no doubt she'd have written about how the evil gun store dude was hitting on her, and then tried to upsell her on additional services.I haven't read the whole thread, but I did read the article.

She is an absolute moron and should just get rid of the gun.....
Oh don't worry, she had a friend melt it down. Apparently it gave her tremendous freedom, as she could go back to living in her little bubble and pretending there is no bad in the world. ha
Folks

?Stupid,? ?Immoral,? ?Dangerous,? ?Coward?: My Month With a Gun - The Daily Beast
I thought the gun would make me feel more powerful, more confident, and less fearful. I was wrong. All I felt was fear. Physically taking the gun out of the safe and putting it in a holster on my hip literally reminded me that I was going out into a big bad scary unsafe world. There were days when I put the gun back in the safe and stayed home because it simply took too much energy to be scared.
I bought a ride on mower after years of hatred towards motor vehicles.
After buying one (seamlessly) I proceeded to put the keys in the ignition. The mower stuttered and the engine started chugging. I froze. Was I now driving? I had never driven a ride on prior to this and the thought of this Lawn Beast barreling down a busy street of children and elderly folk, blades at full rotation, gave me chills. I took the keys out and slouched down into my seat.
The dealer came over and asked if I was ok.
"No," I responded "I know nothing about ride on's and decided this just isnt right for me."
Yes but did you get it turned into a piece of art?
This is America. We have life, liberty, and freedom of expression—and the freedom to own a gun. We can each use those rights how we see fit and periodically discuss them—that’s democracy. Clearly a lot of Americans will continue to own guns, and a small portion of them won’t have any training because it’s not required—with predictable, tragic consequences.
My experiment was 30 days of my personal experience. I’m just a mom who wanted to see what it felt like. Now I know.
She was trying to hurt, not help.This person is a moron & is not helping. She is an example of who we do not want with a gun. Sheep to the tenth power. Leave the gun carrying to the sheepdogs. We know who the wolves (not the Starks..I like them) are & if we don't @ least we prepared if they rear their ugly head.
Be like me driving a fully loaded tractor trailer down the interstate for the sake of research or journalism. May be able to fake it for a little while but we all know its gunna end up in a horrific wreck (if I can get it going that is, cue the scene from super troopers).
She was trying to hurt, not help.
This article is pure antigun propaganda from start to finish intended to make the claim that she "tried it" and only confirmed all her fears of what her neighbors might do if they are allowed to remain free.
Its amazing because you have discussed the phenomena of projection by liberals regarding what they would do if free to carry guns, and its happening 100% in this article

This is part of the "cultural divide" that GOAL mentioned in its summary of some of the recent hearings on MA gun laws.
The debate points don't make any sense to us because they are trying to legislate their own fear, anxiety and impulse control issues (whether perceived or real).
Without trying to insult, I really think this is part of a bigger problem of people not maturing emotionally, because our society no longer demands it for survival or even success (until the game of musical chairs is really up and then we are in for a world of hurt). You can go cradle to grave living out life as a Neurotic mess of a Woody Allen character. Moral hazard is hazardous...
