This guy packing 3 guns at a retail store - seriously....


@resistandgrow, 3h
This isn't normal nor should anyone think it is. He is putting everyone in the store at risk - he has 3 handguns and looks crazy - what could go wrong.

Like the byline said, what would've happened to this guy had he been black or brown.

Not an adult, but the guy showed his ID everywhere until he was 17 and a cashier at a gas station asked him why and then started ranting at him about how this is America and he doesn't have to show his papers.

He was a military officer's kid who grew up always living on the base and had to show it at the commissary and exchange and the movie theater and the pool and the bowling alley whatever else so he thought that was just the way things were supposed to be.

Sat Jun 1, 2019, 10:40 PM

1. That back holster doesn't look very secure. Basic retention system? That leaves an opening for a quick criminal to snatch it and off Ol' Hoss before he can fully react.

2. It's almost certainly "because he can". He knows that sets off the libs and apparently it's doing a great job.

Is a smirk and a shake of the head.

As has been mentioned, how fucking terrified of life do you have to be, to go to the grocery store armed to the teeth?

He’s lucky Aristus wasn’t there to throw a carton of melted ice cream at him.

Why he feels the need for three guns is beyond me.

Honestly, I could see someone standing 5'0" and weighing 100 lbs carrying concealed just to equalize a potential size disparity between them and an attacker but this guy? Nuh uh.

those back holsters always make me think one slip and fall with a bad landing and the guy is sure to break his spine and never walk again.

He's just hoping someone grabs it so he is justified in gunning them down, even if it's empty.

"Peer-reviewed research shows that conservatives are more sensitive to threat. While this threat-bias can distort reality, fuel irrational fears, and make one more vulnerable to fear-mongering politicians, it could also promote hypervigilance, perhaps making one better prepared to handle an immediate threat."
