Steve and I went to Dunkin Donuts for breakfast on our way to the range. Not only did they not care, but the kid assumed we were going to the range and says they get a lot of armed customers when the National matches are in town.

I would have thought you were cops being armed in a doughnut shop.....just making the connection....lol
And I made a error while in dunkin. I should have added that we carry like this regardless of range time.
That can't be tolerated so hand over your Blue Card. You're not allowed in our group anymore.
... I imagine that evening she was glued to the TV news waiting for the SCREAMING HEADLINES of a lone gunman holding up Wells Fargo...
And when she didn't get them, it becomes a positive reinforcement for gun-carrying free Americans. This is just something you don't get with those who conceal. Yet she is probably in bank line with a concealer almost every time she is in there, I'd bet.
Hopefully she can connect the dots.
Then again, if I'm correct and she is first-gen Japanese, she may have some deep-seated cultural issues to work through. IIRC Japan is very anti-gun.
That may not be justice, but it is poetic.Born and raised in England--you would probably think the same for there too--but whenever I have friends or family come out to visit it doesn't bother them in the slightest. In fact, it's almost like they expect people in the US to carry. On another note, they are all pro-gun/carry and a visit to the range is usually the first thing they want to do when they get here. It's a pity they gave up their rights so easily over there because now, it seems, they want the right back..but it will be much more difficult to restore.
You have to remember that the charge to ban guns (after Dunblane) was led by the Daily Mirror over there. The editor of which was no other than Peirs Morgan at the time. As soon as Tony Blair got elected, he completely banned handguns. Then, ironically, a couple of years into the ban, Tony Blair's own daughter and her boyfriend were mugged at gunpoint in London one evening.
Sorry for going off topic but I just though you'd enjoy that tidbit.

Did this happen to be the DD at Charleston and Desert Foothills? My wife and I OC in that one fairly frequently.

Interestingly, as I left, there were some folks outside asking for signatures to a pro-gun petition. They asked me to sign and one of them said, "Of course he will, look, he's NRA" as she noticed my shirt. I told them that I've heard plenty of folks "say" they are not anti-gun so let me read what your purpose is. And son-of-a-gun, their petition is for "NO NEW GUN LAWS". I signed and I pointed out to them that I was open carrying as well. They never saw it until I pointed it out.
I say we have to be careful with those kinds of petitions. They may be trying to keep us from getting constitutional carry, campus carry etc... As in no new law that would allow these things. I seem to recall these folks have been at several of the DMVs and someone on here did some research and they did not have our interest at heart.
Well whadya know.... I wasnt born there but I spent most of my life there and a great proportion of that was in Birmingham. I actually became a gun supporter before I moved back over here and pretty much lapped up everything I could find. I have most of the state PDFs from Handgunlaw saved to Dropbox so I can access wherever, though what lets me down is the fact I can't keep the various state laws straight.
Loving the Open Carry stories from NV and looking forward to the day I can give the liberals in my city a headache.
