Poll. Would you provide security for a MDA mom that just mocked you?

[mrortega]

Of course I would. I'd protect a child in harm's way so I'd give the same consideration to anyone else who isn't mature yet. That goes for most antis. When they finish growing up they'll see the light.

 

[pudly]

Nancy Pelosi better hurry up then.

 

[ModernGunner]

But... but... but... they don't NEED security 'cause they're anti-gunner loons!

 

[88GT]

Why do you think that she could not be sincere? There is a world of difference between confronting a peaceful person carrying a holstered gun and someone that is belligerent and aggressive.

She was sincere. She was sincere in her outrage and animosity. She was sincere when she was quaking in her boots. She was both peaceful in her request and belligerent and aggressive. She was what she wanted to be when it suited her purpose.

As I said before, she's either a hypocrite or on the path to redemption. But she's going to walk through the coals of the fire of her own making before she reaches the promised land if it's up to me.

 

[DemolitionMan]

The whole scenario seems a little too good to be true to me, a perfect "put them in their place" story. Assuming it did happen as described, I would have walked her to her car. I'd also suggest that she rethink her position on personal protection as I did so.

I understand the desire to say something snide and leave. I'd be very tempted to do that....but it's not the way I was raised. I have to admit I'm completely biased here because it's a lady. If it were a guy he'd be on his own unless there was actual violence happening or about to happen.

 

[LockStocksAndBarrel]

I would tell her no, but not for the reason you might think.

I could see it being a set up. A trap. An accomplice could have already called 911 so that when we got outside she could throw her hands up and start screaming.

A couple of months ago, I would have walked her out. After hearing the rants, reading the Facebook posts and seeing people getting SWATted, no way.

This. Some of the things they've openly advocated and admitted to are astounding.

Perhaps 88 has just beat me into agreeing with her. Perhaps it's 40 years of watching John Wayne movies. But I would have politely told here that she made her choice, now she had to live with it.

If I were there alone, and really thought something might happen, I may pay more attention. If I were there with my family, my 1 and only concern would be safety of my wife and kids. See statement above for her safety.

If that makes me a mean heartless SOB, then so be it.

 

[Scout]

There are a dozen smart ass things I might say, most likely id offer to call the police and see how long it takes for them to get there. Or id wait and see if she was getting her ass beat, then id politely ask if she would like me to intervene. Or id ask her what's scarier, a quiet guy with a gun going about his business, or a loudmouth punk threatening to beat everyone up?

 

[Patternpimp]

Walking her to the car would reinforce her belief that someone else is responsible for her safety. He did the right thing.

On and Off topic

Ammosexuals huh, kinda catchy!

Ammosexual, I like that. Does that mean I pay with ammo, or I do it with ammo? Sorry to threadjack.

No I wouldn't have helped her, especially after being verbally accosted. I carry for the defense of my family and myself.

I voted yes. Likely rolling at least audio for C my A.

As for the "Ammosexuals" I introduced this awhile back on INGO.

Link to New England gun owners site with a brilliant letter to antis: Stand up for "Ammosexual" Rights!!

You must read it through to the Rainbow Gadsen. I know someone here was going to adopt it for awhile. ( I actually think it would sell)

You see you may all be Ammosexuals, you were born that way...

60 to 67 so far.

 

[PRasko]

Nope.

Why on earth would I provide security, and risk my life, on someone that has zero regard for my own safety?

 

[Davis0023]

Yes, because I am a professional and it is business not personal. And maybe after sometime around a professional (gun owner) just maybe they might come around a little. If not, I still collect my check and vote against them/ their candidate etc.

Huh? There was no pay. It wasn't a job.

You can always tell who didn't read the attached information.

 

[Davis0023]

I was on my phone and attached took me to an app , so no I did not down load it. None the less no I would not provide free security to any ungrateful principle.

 

[Thor]

I believe I would ask her if she had her cell phone. Yes? Can you dial 911? Yes? I believe you've said that is all that is needed. Have a nice night.

 

[rhino]

I would have given my most intense, steely-eyed stare into the middle distance and shouted, "THERE MUST BE QUID PRO QUO!"
