American Stereotype™ walks Google's mean Street View

Gun? Check. Liquor? Check

We're fully aware that some of our UK readers have pretty well decided
that the average American wears a baseball cap, Harley-Davidson
sweatshirt, jeans and cowboy boots and walks the mean streets of the
Land of the Free with a hunting rifle while swigging from a bottle of
hard liquor.

Nothing, of course, could be further from the truth, as this snap from
Google's Street View shows: see link above for image

Splendid. Doubtless our US friend is on his way to a fellow NRA
member's trailer park home to watch the baseball while washing down
pork rinds with a coupla six-packs, as is the local custom.


Good point.


Shocking. A guy carrying a rifle outside of the "Dakota Angler and
Outfitter" in the "mean" streets of Rapid City SD.
