I'm not sure why people have to resort to this sort of backhanded sarcasm with the smiley emojis and such. Most people can see right through that BS.
The “Beers and Sunshine” part is denigrating a human based upon their choice of weapon.
Short, long, quiet, loud, factory or boutique or home modified, Fudd, or not.
I think if someone is being unsafe with a potentially illegal weapon at a shooting range, it most certainly is everyone's concern.
Your safety is your concern. And leaving a dangerous situation is probably the best course of action. Unless embarrassing public arguments with grown men about proper shotgun barrel length is something you usually do...
Nobody wants to be a Karen, do they?
But, if you’d like to check everyone’s papers based upon how nice their firearms are, or whether or not they were “homemade” you have a problem.
How many times must they be checked? The range staff not good enough?
I probably wouldn’t want someone hassling my
paying customers either.
Doesn't matter what color they, what their political affiliations are, or which organizations they choose to support.
Then why was it interjected in the story?
Dramatic flair?
And if the sawed off portion is done incorrectly, can't that be a danger to everyone on the firing line?
They are as dangerous as you and I. No more or less. Does physics change if one uses a hacksaw opposed to a lathe?
Or, because of their shirt, are they are mechanically challenged and thus a danger to everyone?
I’m about the opposite of the offending shirt logo, but should I also be denied rangetime while wearing a StarWars shirt?
How about some StarTrek nerd?
Because one can see from the sales floor, behind a shooter, how well their super-duper cop-killing shorty-shotty barrel is cut, and whether or not it was homemade or a Shockwave that has become increasingly popular recently.
Listen, if you’re a fudd or need to defend every judgmental curmudgeon out there, have at it.
But,...
Most people can see right through that BS.
(Glad you like the smileys.
)
I giggle at you perspective
Ditto.
Placing all of the weight of your external societal experiences on a fellow man, a fellow shooter, whom you don’t even know. Based upon sight alone.
You’re a knowledgeable man. I’d like to think you would not treat another that way.
If you would, perhaps that north highway goes by a church...
It is sad to think I am the broken one...
