I'm angry because Im only allowed to grow jalapeños, shiso, basil, and tomatoes at the moment. BTW they're organic and delicious. I have 60 veggie plants I'm taking care of.

Meanwhile there are shit bags on this website voting Republican, blocking legalization, and donating to cops.

are you still here complaining about how you get called a racist whenever you open your racist mouth? what a pity.

my advice to you is to create yet another fake female sock puppet.

People like you make me love my country more, and encourage me to keep my guns, and if need be defend myself against scum like you race baiting trolls and cowards that sit behind computers and do nothing but try to incite hate, bigotry, strife and turmoil...
I wonder if this is the video that they play for poor kids to trick them into signing up to be sent overseas to be killed and maimed in the completely bogus name of "freedom"?

Note the words, "intimidation in the pursuit of political aims". What he is doing is literally the definition of terrorism. He is using intimidation in the pursuit of political aims.
My point is that, without one single threatening action from the guy in the pic, intimidation is in the eye of the beholder. Calling him a terrorist is beyond all common sense imo. He made sure to operate within the law, and terrorism is unlawful. Calling his legal act of expression* terrorism is simply cementing the idea that an exposed gun is somehow ... rude. That is why I have posted in this thread, to expose that attitude and dismantle it.

*which now makes it a First Amendment issue

Same situation, but what if it were a bomb strapped to his chest. Still without one single threatening action. Is intimidation still in the eye of the beholder?

Completely different and irrelevant example. There is no legal or Constitutional protection for destructive devices.

Yes, I was being melodramatic. To me personally, he is not a terrorist, he's just a dipshit.

"and terrorism is unlawful." - That's your interpretation of the meaning of the word. Webster, and the like, would argue differently.

You haven't dismantled it. Open carrying a handgun as an everyday practice is fine, though again I'd prefer conceal, I don't want people knowing I could kill them at any moment. Element of surprise, Sun Tzu and all that jazz. But open carrying an AR looking all Tacticool to make a political statement is silly and obnoxious. It doesn't prove anything.

But I suppose glass houses and stones and kettles and whatnot. I don't go around making fun of gay people while they have parades and protests, I probably shouldn't be making fun of knuckle draggers open carrying; protesting something that they can already freely do.
