The guns and ammo were legally purchased. There were at least 20 “open carry” guys present when the shooting started, and they all ran from the scene. The victims were heavily armed and highly trained. So much for the concept that there’s a benefit to “carrying” in an open venue. Oh, and did I miss the NRA’s comment on the death of the guy in Minnesota who apparently was legally carrying and shot to death by the cops? Or does the NRA only care about white folks who carry? Another dumb post by a racist and loser. Bilious, it is fashionable these days for white guys to accuse others of "racism" when the latter point out the racism or possible racism of whites or white-dominated groups. But that doesn't make the charge true. It is simply a way for white guys to try to "transfer" their racism onto those who accuse them of it. The NRA and other nutcase groups frequently state that "if only more people carried firearms...blah blah blah." Well, in Dallas there were plenty of "civilians" open carrying firearms, and they all ran when the shooting started. And where is the comment from the NRA on the guy who apparently was legally carrying and was shot by a cop? If the 2nd Amendment is suppose to allow you to arm yourself so you can protect yourself from an "overreaching" government, well, it doesn't seem to work, does it? I wouldn't attempt a shootout with a guy with a high velocity, military type rifle using my carry pistol. Would you? News photos and reports showed some of the open carry morons carrying semi-auto rifles. But that's not the point. The point is that the NRA and other gun nutzies claim a "good citizen" carrying would stop a bad guy shooting. That didn't happen in Dallas, and it typically doesn't happen. A carry firearm might help you defend yourself, if you can get to it in time and if you can shoot and if you get a shot. It's hardly a weapon to shut down a crazy dude or a terrorist or terrorists who have you outgunned and who don't care about their personal safety. What the NRA promotes in carry to protect others is mostly a canard. |
