I'm just here to see who is deluded enough to defend that video as an effective means of promoting the Second Amendment. Because, being the never-give-up optimist that I am, I am thinking that even some of their defenders here have to see that they aren't doing anyone any favors after that video.

Normal fucking hard working people that donate to political organizations. You know, groups like the NRA, SAF, JPFO, Pink Pistols, etc...

Pink Pistols is a gay gun rights organization. The majority of the gay community are normal folks that work hard, try to live honest lives, and not be bothered or bother others.

The other thing is this one group of 10-15 (?) people (Open Carry Tarrant County) is responsible for damn near 90-95% of the negative publicity regarding open carry. This is the same group from Chipotle. It is the same group from Target. It is the same group that keeps mixing it up with the city of Arlington. It is the group that got hit by a car as well as the group whose member was arrested for the murder of her husband.
If they aren't a false flag group, they are doing a damn good job for free. |

Yeah, because what we look like & wear has anything to do with rights... Let's start there. Why would we start there? Nobody is arguing that you have less rights because of what you look like and wear. They are arguing that what you look like and wear makes a difference on whether you are an effective advocate for your cause - a point so universally true and well understood it forms a basic plank of the whole advertising industry. Do you not understand that distinction? Same questions apply to your statement as well as the other posters. I politely asked you a direct question, and your response is to direct me to "Same questions apply to your statement?" Your question as I understand it was: So you agree with an elitist persona requirement before being taken seriously? Rights & opinions only matter when represented by a particular class? Which is nothing more than a barely reworded statement of your original strawman argument. Exactly how do you propose I respond to your question when it is merely a restatement of the same faulty logic I already pointed out? Do you understand the distinction between the rights a person has and being an effective advocate for rights? |

Not just that- we also started seeing gays in sitcoms that SHOWED us that they weren't all flamers. Will and Grace is the primetime example- sure one of them was a goofy little flamer, but the other one was just a normal guy who likes dudes. The media will not be doing the Second Amendment that same favor anytime soon. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Sometimes I think about the OC D-bags and am reminded of the flamboyant gays from not so long ago. They took a lot of abuse. People thought they were abnormalities that did not represent the views of the community. Many in the community wanted them to go away and stop bringing unwanted attention. The flamers didn't and haven't helped the Gay Community. The gay community has been making gains due to folks in three piece suits lobbying the shit oit of elected officials. They look at the flamers the same way we look at the OC Tards. Not just that- we also started seeing gays in sitcoms that SHOWED us that they weren't all flamers. Will and Grace is the primetime example- sure one of them was a goofy little flamer, but the other one was just a normal guy who likes dudes. The media will not be doing the Second Amendment that same favor anytime soon. The best part about that show was that the complete flamer, Jack, is not gay. That show was pretty funny. |

Florida had and still has a GOP Supermajority. We had a bill that was fast tracked for the Governor's desk. Then you OC idiots started doing stupid shit... what happened? If Florida, you can legally OC is hunting, fishing, or camping. So a bunch of numb nuts started to go to every major city in Florida and start fishing while OCing. Places like Miami, Tampa, Jacksonville, Orlando, Melbourne, etc... places where a lot of scared Susie Homemakers live. They all started gettjng scared because OC Idiots yelled and screamed stupid shit while strapping the biggest fucking hog leg they could find. All the hard work, effort, and money that was spent in lobbying, campaigning, and promoting went down the drain. The NRA, United Sportsmen of Florida, and SAF lost all that hard work because asshats... like you... couldn't keep their proverbial dicks in their pants. And just to give you a heads up.... I was one of the many people spending my hard earned money and time in meeting with elected officials in trying to get OC to Florida. But thanks... your kind fucking deserves to be throat punched and left to die in the desert for all the fuck ups they cause. Right now we have a Campus Carry bill that just made it out of committee and is scheduled for a floor vote. Guess what... I've been working on that too as had many others. We haven't been doing it dressed like asshats and scaring the fuck out of folks. It's been through stroking the egos of elected officials and getting them to play nice. |

Has anyone ever looked into any of these OC people? Just thinking maybe its actually anti-gun people disguising themselves as second amendment supporters and using OC to scare people and get guns banned.
That or theyre all just a bunch of f**king inbred neck beards who should be beat to death. Quoted:
The other thing is this one group of 10-15 (?) people (Open Carry Tarrant County) is responsible for damn near 90-95% of the negative publicity regarding open carry. This is the same group from Chipotle. It is the same group from Target. It is the same group that keeps mixing it up with the city of Arlington. It is the group that got hit by a car as well as the group whose member was arrested for the murder of her husband. If they aren't a false flag group, they are doing a damn good job for free.

Do you even see a distinction between the rights an individual has and being an effective advocate for those rights or do you have some kind of rare, special autism where you are unable to distinguish between those two things? I never once said I agreed with OCTC or their tactics. No, you implied that an earlier poster was arguing that people who do not dress or behave in a certain manner do not have the same inherent individual rights as the rest of us; but that wasn't what the poster was arguing - they were arguing that OCTC were harmful to the Second Amendment and not effective advocates for their cause. So did you not understand the post you responded to? Did you not understand it even after I pointed out the discontinuity in your response - TWICE? What is it about that question that so bothers you that even now, you don't want to give a simple "yes or no" answer to whether you understand the distinction I was describing but instead are trying to shift the topic to whether you agreed with OCTC tactics? What I am trying to get people to realize is that dog piling on these types of antics helps no-one except the dog-pilers.
But carry on. So, say your house is on fire - and your neighbor runs out to help because he doesn't want his house to burn down. But instead of helping, he is actually throwing gasoline on the flames. How does pointing out that this is increasing the fire cause a problem? Please walk me through the mental process you used to arrive at the conclusion that pointing out obvious flaws in effective advocacy somehow harms us; because clearly I do not grasp how your thought process works. |

I'm the first to say that being an asshole doesn't persuade anyone, hence my interest in this topic. These guys have been repeatedly approached by the people who are getting things done for gun rights, who know what works and what doesn't work. They have all been rejected, some of them multiple times. Pretty much the only thing left is to make enough noise that anyone who goes looking for information on open carriers behaving badly finds a bunch of gun rights advocates criticizing the behavior. This at least shows that we're not all retards, and that advancement of gun rights won't lead to Mad Max style anarchy. Sorry to say it's come to that, but it has. |
