I went to the parade in Token Creek (sun prairie area) today...was OCing as usual....big crowd...i was standing along the street waiting for the parade to start when an older gal came up to me...
'whats that in your pocket?' she looked very upset as she was POKING at the glock...'Is that a gun?'
'Yes ma'am, it is...'
'WHY do you need that?' again she was REALLLY upset...
'Its for defensive purposes...a last resort if needed....does it bother you?' I said
'Yes, it bothers me...what if you take it out and decide to shoot me?'
(im now shaking my head in disbelief at this point)
'Ma'am, the guns you cant see, are the ones you need to worry about...the ones that are hid in baggy pants wherethe hat is on sideways' i said
'Thats a prejudiced statement' she said....at that time, a very nice young black couple standing next to me noticed the firearm...both gave me a hi-five and were in total agreement with me carrying... we then struck up a conversation about all sorts ofthings... THEN 20 mins later, SHE came back, nudged the guy on my other side and said (pointing at me) 'Hes got a gun!'....
the guy then says ' I know its your right and all, but my grandma is really upset...could move to someplace else watch the parade?'
'Nope' i said...and left it at that.... Was I the jerk? Im thinking not..
