Reread my question and try again. I really don't have any problem with black people, but do find KKK members and the like interesting so do tell me more.

laffin'
Joe The Plumber makes an ill-timed 'comment' about his gun rights, and the majority who've responded to that thread are supportive of him.
These guys carrying their guns are actually exercising those same rights that Joe The Plumber was just giving lip service to, and the majority who've responded to this thread are castigating them for it.
laffin' some more It's not that hard to understand... Except that THAT'S not what they are being castigated for here...they are being derided here simply for the open carrying of their firearms in public, period. still laffin' HUH, this is about Sonic not wanting open carry long guns inside their restaurant. This started in Texas, where Open carry of a handgun is illegal. Open carry of a long gun is legal in Texas, where where these knuckleheads denied their right to carry in public and why is Sonic being blamed for State Law? Inside Sonic is Private.

- - - Like I mentioned earlier, we don't see any public antics out of the gay community - - - I don't know where sherp hangs out, but for any who go to most cities, beaches, amusement parks, etc. his statement is a roaring joke. Homosexual PDA of rather extreme sorts is all too common, planned demonstrations are obvious - and the rest is topped off with the "pride" parades, dykes on bikes, queers with dears, etc.. Once subject to that ugliness, a normal person tends to get their theme. That is a crock! You are describing gun owners as has been pointed out by so many members here. Why else do you think firearms are on the radar of politicians so much? Meanwhile, homosexuals finally learned in the last few decades about how flaunting their lifestyle down through the centuries and trying to ram it down everyone's throats had not been working and started being more low key....even secretive. Since they started doing that tactic, politicians have been much more open to rewarding them with more privileges. Sheeez, get with the [bleep] program and pay attention to how things work. Sherp - one has to hope that you are not the idiot that you present here. Plant yourself along the parade route in SF or any of the other homosexual behavior friendly cities where the homosexuals regularly demonstrate their "pride" (that is, if you can handle such a dose). Be careful crossing the intersections so you don't get smacked by a Harley sporting a "dykes on bykes" sign - you might drop your crock and break it. You are not fooling anyone who has even a bit of experience seeing that stuff. Get real.

Sonic Corporation donated $83K, 98% went to Democratshttp://hillbuzz.org/who-supports-whom-99741 I didn't want to but it was the only place around for about fifty miles. And I'm to the right of Attila the Hun and about as far from a Demonrat as one could get! Let's see, of the $12 we spent, how much of that do you think will go to the Dems? For me, going there with a CCW was also sort of a poke in the eye to the the corporate idiots. You can take it however you want!

What if they were black, dreds, buttcrack pants, beret hat, Africa flag on they back, looking hard everywhere and at you? Just curious. How would you deal with it? The same way I would treat these guys.

Just a matter of time before somebody's killed. I hope Sonic has a lot of money for to pay for the law suites.

Of the guns shown in the photograph of the guys carrying, I see one one carried in a safe manner, the bolt rifle in th foreground. I see at least two pointed horizontally and one apparently pointed at the ground at an angle. Ain't no way sooner or later one of those muzzles are going to sweep someone, or multiple someones.
I don't like being swept with a muzzle.
Just sayin.

�We are heartened that we can take our children to these family-oriented restaurants and not worry about being confronted by customers with semiautomatic rifles,� Shannon Watts, founder of Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America, said in a statement Friday in response to the new Sonic policy on guns.
Huh ???? What ???? Is she kidding ???? And will she be disheartened when someone's family member is killed by ANY type of firearm carried by someone who doesn't give a rat's ass about the restaurants' policies ???? Bet you a dollar to a doughnut someone is going to wish someone was carrying and was able to put the piece of [bleep] who didn't give a rat's ass away. Another winner, DUHHHHHHHHH

Thinking thru this earlier that's what bugged me most. Don't make much sense to me to be carrying a rifle in a ice cream store but I understand the point they're making. Still, the muzzle control issue is guaranteed to bring about a discussion or two when they sweep the wrong guy. Pro-gun or not.

I just don't know that half that carry would rather leave than shoot. Its for their own protection after all and if the back door works...well.

Just sayin. Straight up and down isn't safe either...2nd floors, airplanes, and gravity guarantee the bullet will hit somewhere. In fact, in to the ground is much safer since most of the energy from a accidental will get expended in to the ground. Out of curiosity, since you mentioned the muzzle under the table was going to sweep you, how often do you crawl around under folks' tables and why? Lying in wait in case they drop something, perving on women/little girls wearing skirts, or just a thrill seeker? Sounds like a good way to get your ass kicked.

I personally don't think open carry in public businesses help the Gun Owners in the long run. If i was going to rob a place the first person i would take out would be the ones who were carrying in the open . (Playing devil's advocate here) But what if ALL customers are carrying openly? You got enough ammo and speed to take out 50+ customers before ya rob the place? Why set yourself up as a target . Maybe the sight of a customer carrying would actually scare off a potential crook. If you are going to carry then conceal the weapon. Knives are considered weapons and are most often carried in a sheath on the belt. Does that make you a target too? Open carry in the woods and fields is a whole different ball game . Not really. One can run into a crook there too - or a rabid bunny-hugger who views your firearm as owned by a 'violent' hunter and makes the carrier a 'target' too..
