There would be no need to say "like Colorado", if you weren't referencing the shooting. You could easily describe the how using descriptive words and modifiers. You didn't, because that wasn't what you were going for.
I couldn't have been more clear before in my earlier post. Whether I agree with his actions or not are NOT CONDITIONAL to his right to do so.
I am certain some of you don't realize it. But the truth is, though not to nearly an extreme, by arguing against the bearing of arms in ANY manner, in this case, open carry of long guns, is along the same line as when people argue against the open carry of a handgun, the conceal carry of a handgun, or any sort of carry at all. It directly conflicts with the nature of the 2nd Amendment.
So if you want to say, "where do you draw the line?", I ask you this. What line, and why should it be drawn? That to me, indicates that certain infringements are indeed okay. I'm not okay with that. I find these views, especially coming from gun owners who portray themselves as supporters of the right to bear arms, very disappointing. Just because you may not be against the 2nd Amendment, doesn't mean you SUPPORT it.
It's also disingenuous to portray people who call stupid crap when they see it as not supporting the right to be stupid.
Not one time in this entire thread have I seen anyone say that any of these people in the O.C dust ups not have the right to.
It's you and a few others that make that leap thinking it somehow trumps the entire discussion.
"Well your not a REAL supporter of the 2A so nenner , nenner."
The guy in the video was an attention whoring butthole who wanted to be a youtube star.
He was filming it because it was a planned out stunt.
That's his right.
And it's mine to point it out.
And it's yours to make him out to be a 2A hero.
What a country huh?
