RE: My open carry experience today. More videos and pictures coming soon.
Not buying what you're slingin there Bub (aka @everittmickey). :-)
That might have been the case at one time, the NRA was afterall created by Yankee war veterans, including a NY Times reporter, who thought the Civil War dragged on too long, because the Northerners could not shoot as well as the Southerners. It was all about Marksmanship. And, the NRA was participated heavily in suggesting and supporting GUN CONTROL laws for most of its history.
BUT TODAY ..

Closely aligning itself with police energizes its overwhelmingly white member base, which provides the group with its political power. Right now, that base is scared that social change demanded by Black Lives Matter will come at the expense of whites’ own security and identity. The NRA has decided it must stay on its constituents side in a battle against what those millions believe is an existential threat, even when that means taking a pass on a fight for the gun rights principles it has sworn to protect.
You can believe what you want. It happens to be wrong.
Be that as it may. Carry a gun and encourage all of your friends to carry one too. Including your wife and older (old enough) children. Train them in the use of guns. It's the ethical thing to do. Everyone should be responsible for their OWN self defense.
Remember...when seconds count...the police are only minutes away.
thank god, because those the mfers be killing people :)
Who? The cops you mean? Yeah. That IS a problem.
They do seem to be depicted as being rather trigger happy lately.
