Perhaps they have questionable role models.

Let me guess: This couple is now going to play victim: He was fired from his job and it’s all the fault of “those people.” Have they been interviewed on Fox News yet?

I love the fact that the idiot lost his job because of this. Someday, these concealed carry ammosexuals will realize that their idiotic actions have bigly consequences.

If you saw it, she’s just freaking out over being argued with by a woman and her daughter. Just completely out of control. But at least she had her finger outside the trigger guard, unlike our friend in St. Louis. She evidently had some training with the thing. Now all she needs is a psychiatrist.

It turns out, no matter how bad things get – they can always get worse.

If Rupert Murdoch and his murderous “communications” empire had descended upon this country in the 1950s–instead of the 1990s–there would have been no Supreme Court Decisions paving the way to integration and the “Civil Rights Movement” would have been either absent or in a drastically different form.

We The People and our National Character are much better now than 1954, with far more tolerance than when Father Knows Best or Armstrong Circle Theater were entertaining people watching their new Muntz TVs.

The legacy of FOX and Trump and the GOP is a profound one in that it shows how few bad actors are needed to really fuck up a Polity.

Rush Limbaugh, Tucker Carlson, and more than anyone, Trump himself, have got chicken whites afraid the “negroes” are gonna burn down their houses and rape their women.

First of all, arson is almost entirely a white profession.

And Black men are taking white women the old fashioned way: with flowers and sweet talk.

A person having a gun pulled on them and threatened in such a serious manner will no doubt have consequential emotional impact and PTSD for the mom and her teenage daughter.

Nothing like going to Chipotle for some dinner and being threatened by a dumbass with a gun.

Cheaper just to calm the fuck down, really.

In a nation awash in guns, every shouting match has the potential to turn into a shooting match.

I watched the extended video earlier and I have questions. Pulling the weapon was ridiculous, but the tensions involved were escalated from the other direction initially. Will have to look again, but I would say both parties were culpable in generating this. There was nothing I saw that validated the claims this couple were racists yet they were being called such and ignorant as well. I am really not clear as to what the hell was going down in the process.

A person convicted of a felony cannot lawfully possess a firearm pursuant to Michigan and Federal Law. Michigan law also prohibits persons convicted of a felony from carrying a concealed weapon.

These two dumbasses should have just walked away. If convicted, they can’t enjoy their ammosexual lifestyle anymore.
