| Admitedly, it is a generalization. But it is a valid message. |

Ditto. What I do hate is people who see other people as labels. And I'm not overly fond people who use the word, liberal, like a swear word. I think we need to start having Liberal Pride parades.

| I do not have to be a Liberal to Carry my weapons. However, I do hate that I have to carry my weapons to defend myself from
other human beings, but as far as hating guns there is no way that I would
travel without my guns, and only a envy thinking person would think about
someone hating to carry a gun. In the street game the saying is never get
caught without your legal weapon. Which means that it would be better them
then you (regardless to the politicial way of thinking or party affiliation).
The only psychological reason why I can see anyone hating guns is because
they are scared shitless that they might shoot themselves.
Tadpole!!! How can you generalize something that you really have no proof
about? Explain to me what makes you think that Liberals hates guns, and if
you hate guns speak for yourself. All Politicians I know Republican or Demo
carry a gun, but its a person's rights not to have or be around people with a
gun, and I really don't give a damn if a person is around me or not I will always
carry my two sidekicks.

1) I am a U.S. Navy Weapons Specialist. I am a Small Arms Marksmanship Instructor, I hardly hate guns. I think every citizen should have one.
2) What makes me think liberals hate guns? Liberals always want to enact more gun regulation. Liberals always want to create more anti-gun laws. Liberals are the ones most likely to scream for gun control after a killing or other gun-related tragedy. Liberals tend to have fearful mind-states, and want to protect people from harm (not a bad thing in and of itself), but they often have convoluted and wrong ways of trying to accomplish that protection. |

| Stereotyping leaves out important details... Most here would probably consider me a liberal, although I see myself as a moderate.
I own many forearms. I'm a military veteran. I'm an NRA member. My guns and I have never harmed anyone.

2) Your description (assuming firearms, not forearms) also perfectly describes me! Although I am still active duty. |

Jeez I'm pretty old and have never owned or carried a gun. And guess what, I've never needed a gun to protect myself from other human beings. Maybe you need to move to a better neighborhood.
[quote=BlackMinuteMan;254554]the only psychological reason why I can see anyone hating guns is because

Believe it or not people have been killed by accidently shooting themselves and others. People have had loved ones killed by guns and the actions ( and in-actions) of irresponsible gun owners. For this reason many people hate guns. Maybe they live in a bad neighborhood where it is unsafe to go out because of all the gun violence and they hate guns for that reason.
Try thinking outside the box BlackMinuteMan
I'd be more scared of the idiot gun owner down street that thinks he needs a gun under every chair and in every drawer because he feels threatened by others.
Why does this scare me?
1) If his house is burglarized all these guns will end up the in hands of criminals
2) If my son goes to his house to play with Rambo Jr I'm afraid they will find and play with these guns and my son could get killed.
I believe that when Rambo Sr isn't packing these guns to protect himself from all those scary human beings he isn't following accepted gun safety by locking up his guns separately from the ammo.
BTW Minuteman what do you do with your guns when your not wearing them? |
