One of my best friends I met when we where in 2nd grade and we are still hanging out and very good friends. In high school he went through a self discovery phase and turned liberal. Despite that unfortunate turn of events we where able to stay good friends we just had to except early on we where not going to see eye to eye on everything.
My friend believes strongly in having the right to defend your self but only believes in knifes for personal defense. He believes people should be able to stop the threat even if that means killings someone but only with the use of knives he is completely anti gun in every possible way.
I picked him up the other day while open carrying and I could tell he immediately became uncomfortable. After driving for a few minute I politely asked him what it was about guns that make him so uncomfortable, his response "everything". He went on a anti 2nd amendment rant about how evil and unnecessary they are and how all anyone truly needs is a knife, but he added at the very end "but I'm respect you for standing up for what you believe in".
I asked him again what about open carrying made him uncomfortable. He told me they offended him and regardless of what the law says he should not have to be forced to look at something that offends him, he called it " harassment. I asked him if me carrying in front of him offended him and he responded very quickly with "yes". He told me if we can't get rid of the 2nd amendment we should at least be forced by law to conceal them.
We spoke for a while going back and forth never reaching a true understanding. He does accept it as part of our friendship even if he does not agree with it. Just wondering if anyone ells has had a similar experience
