MA moonbattery got pwned, and my "anti" mother got a double shot of New Hampshire recently, in the same episode.
First, while shopping at a Walmart in NH, she saw a shopper open carrying a pistol. Horrified over this, as any MA liberal would be, she then mentioned it to the cashier. The cashier replied "what are you, anti gun?"
When she told me this the next time I saw her, I explained to her that she had just outed herself as an anti, probably from MA, and that she might want to consider unlearning most things she was taught about gunnnzz by a lifetime of brainwashing in Massachusetts. I also explained that she should do as the Romans do while in Rome, and not freak out over a gun on someone's hip in NH.
We then touched on the fact that the people running MA are nuts, and that in reality, most of the country is like NH w/respect to gun freedoms. I didn't get into it too deeply, but I explained that there are the communist gun grabbing crapholes of MA, NJ, CT, IL, CA, NY, etc. and the moonbats who infest them, and then there's the rest of the country.
Believe it or not, she "gets it", and is a good sport about it all. She knows I'm right about MA vs. everywhere else (Free States), but it goes against EVERYTHING she was raised on and spent a life being told by MA moonbat politicians and their "fellow travelers" in Washington DC. I am trying to get her to unlearn everything she's been propagandized with for her whole life.
For me, I was delighted to hear about the interaction. I can't believe the difference 50 or 75 miles from MA makes. In MA, someone would have yelled "GUN!" (although I don't believe my mom is "that" bad to have done this!); the cashier would have ducked under the counter and peed; and SWAT would have been there to handle the "gunman".
NH.....well, NH is NH........and I was pleased to hear it first hand from my mother. A few weeks ago I took her to the range just to see it.....no shooting....as just being there was a HUGE milestone for her. She had never been to a range, and not only did she not get shot while there, she didn't have a stroke or heart attack brought on by fear. This, for my mom, is progress.
