Somewhere someone is in their mom's basement witht two or three pimply faced friends giggling like vicious 8 year old girls.

Are you talking about Kirk or Rhino?

I never understood the fascination some people have with discussing the fascination of discussing a fascinating subject that has been discussed and discussed even though the discussion of the fascinating subject has been fascinatingly discussed and discussed, what was I saying?

I have never understood that fascination...

While your fascination seems to be with concealing, many of us just don't take that extra step of hiding what we carry.

There's really not much to understand, there are many possible reasons and preferences for any given individual to decide if concealing is a priority or even a thought for them.

To worry about or even hold others in disdain for not sharing your same level of priority for concealment, while fairly common, will always seem odd to me.

I've never understood people who do things just "because they can". Just because you can doesn't mean you should...

This is a common statement as well, but for the life of me, I just can't figure out how it pertains to one's OC/CC choice.

We CAN also conceal if we want to, but just because we can doesn't mean we should, right?

Why bring up something so easily reversed and lacking any actual point?

Just thought I would post in this thread. Still working on my quality 50.

Ok...in this particular thread I understand where you are coming from, due to this topic coming up so frequently. But on many topics I have read somebody say "You are pretty new to be saying that." How does a person know an OP's experience based on how long they have been on INGO? I have only been on INGO since Feb. I have over 32 years experience with everything from .22s to an MG-34 and everything in between. I have had my LTCH since 1987. Just because I just recently discovered INGO, does that mean I have no opinion worth while. Just saying.

I tried my best.

I thought about reporting him for inciting a riot, but I thought that may be a bit far.

Hmm...who woulda thought that my cross dressing housekeeper was also on INGO...

Look, if you need a permission slip it aint a right, just sayin

No, needing a 'permission slip' means the right is being infringed, not that the right doesn't exist and/or is a privilege instead of a right.

For everyone's viewing pleasure, and a break from the ongoing struggle with the forces of Noobism, a learned disquisition from the concentrated brain power of Rahm Emanuel and several other U of C and Chicago wonks.

Enjoy!

I have never understood that fascination. Why anyone would WANT to draw attention to themselves in that manner? I've read many posts by people who say they were "contacted" by Law Enforcement and don't understand why? I for one DO NOT WANT THAT ATTENTION! I also don't want any potential "Thugs" to know I have it either. Anyone? Anyone?

I... but... Dude, your poster info says you've been on this forum since '09; have you really never licked this particular third rail in all those years?

I figured it out. fw501 is jealous of those who OC because he's afraid to do it himself.

I would love to play poker with people who open carry. They are obviously the kind of people who want everyone to know what they have.
