Personal opinion: He was rather stupid to advertise that a) he is armed and b) is more than willing to use that weapon to defend himself. It is even dumber, in my opinion, to single out a religious or ethnic group in such a sign. All of that is just setting yourself up for negative consequences.

edited to add: I do not consider OC to be advertising. Posting a sign on one's property is, however.

I agree with you, that advertising he has guns is not the brightest thing to do.



I would add that if he were a member of Islam and said the same thing about any other group, no one would dare say a thing.

Look at the posts above yours? People call them out for that sort of thing all the time.

lol, islam is so funny. It takes itself so seriously. I laugh every time I see these clowns with their "Islam will dominate the world" signs: great job it's doing. :quirky Islam is such a pathetic religion.

Then why did you open your mouth to contradict the obvious?

I could ask you the same question.



The answer is that the news media has no outrage at the Islam signs, in fact they gleefully show them and seem to echo their sentiment, yet they report with horror that someone would dare to defame Islam.
