Ok, hear me out. I was just at an Army Surplus store today and was checking the place out, was asking the owner if he had this or that. Well apparently the guy thought this was real humorous that I actually had knowledge of such items. He was joking around, asking if I was in the military, etc. He was all smiles and giggles. He was joking around to my two friends I brought with me asking them questions like,
"When the SHTF you're going to be going after this guy"
He then asked me how many guns I owned, what types, where I lived, etc. I didn't mind telling him about what guns I owned. I don't usually mind talking about guns in public so I told him about a few of them, etc.
He then also asked me smart a$$ questions like,
"So....when do you think the SHTF? 10, 15 years? HA HA HA HA"
To which I replied it is always smart to be prepared because it is better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.
He then made other smart comments to humor himself as I was leaving the store.
As I left the store my friends were all scared and saying,
"You shouldn't have told him anything about your guns, that guy has a file on you now."
And,
"I was going to buy something there until you exposed yourself."
I was like, ***? What exactly did I do that was illegal? Why are you acting so paranoid? The Government knows about all the guns I have anyway due to the background checks.
Some people seem overly foolish and paranoid. Sure, the owner acted like an ???, but should I be afraid to talk legal guns to the guy or anyone else because of it? Maybe it's because of the liberal environment up here, people are already living in a police state mentality. I don’t know, maybe it’s just me. What are your thoughts?
