A true WTF? moment..

[BPTactical]

So I go to lunch yesterday, got a hankering for BBQ so I head to Dickies.
I place my order, go up to the cashier, a 20's something gal with the typical "a tackle box exploded in my face" piercings and I pay for my meal.
Meh, so what?
I have on my "Free Colorado" T shirt, you know the black shirt with the AR figure in the state colors with Free Colorado on it. My jacket is open so you can see a bit of it but not the full thing.
"Fishhook" asks me "What's that on your shirt?"
I open my coat and say "Free Colorado".
She then says "Well what's that mean? Kill all the Muslims?"
WTF?
I tell her "No, it signifies support of the recalls of the bought and paid for politicians that crammed unjust and unconstitutional laws down the throats of their constituents, and the recalls were successful."
I said no more and went and ate my lunch.

As I sat there I wondered a few things.....
What would make her make such an accusation?
Does she have any idea how Muslims treat their women?
Does she have any concept of not being taught an education?
Not being allowed to have a job?
Not being allowed to leave the house and if she did, being accompanied by a male family member and being covered from head to toe in black, only her eyes showing?
Of having her genitals mutilated at a young age?
Being forced into marriage to one she does not know?
How merely questioning/backtalking a male could get her beaten severely or possibly buried up to her neck and stoned to death?

No, she has no idea.

And they call us ignorant.


I called the store manager today and advised him of the occurrence, he seemed as appalled as I did.

Meh. 4/10. Your last lunch aar was much better

You feeling ok?

[zteknik]

They are the typical entitled crowd .No clue whatsoever just as long as they get theirs and don't have to do anything for it- we owe it to them.

[TEAMRICO]

Soooooooo WTF did you order!? Ribs, brisket, pulled pork, maybe something I have never heard about!!!?
I gots to know so I can form my opinion of the situation!

[GilpinGuy]

Haha. Just before the 2008 election I was checking out at a liquor store and had a "Come and take it" t-shirt on with the AR picture and all. The clerk and some other hippie were talking and as I approached the counter the tackle-faced clerk said, "Yeah, we sure have some problems in this country." He was staring right at my chest. It was obvious.

I just replied, "We sure do" and said thanks and have a good night after I paid. I got nothing in return. Haven't seen him there since. Typical.

Spicy cheddar sausage.

It's nice that you weren't rude to her. It made a much better impression than if you were. She probably even heard some of what you told her.

[Ah Pook]

Does she have any idea?
Does she have any concept?

No to both questions. [Shake]

[jhood001]

I don't get it. Nobody gets a badge for being on the 'PC' side of things. Nobody gets a tax break for it. Nobody gets an effigy of themselves built when they die.

Yet they regurgitate politically correct bullshit every single chance they get - even when they have little to no understanding of the subject matter.

They must be at that age where what they consider to be 'social points' are still important.

Is unfortunate for them that social points can't buy you a god damn thing. Not even your life when things actually get serious.

It is unfortunate for them that the collective 'PC' currency they trade among themselves can't buy their lives in the event that things actually get bad.

Laugh at them and move along.... Well, not you, Bert. Light them up with your incredible vitriol. They have it coming...........

And PLEASE be sure to tell us about it when you do. [Flower]

[BPTactical]

Yeah, I kinda wondered to my self why I wasn't my charming self to her.
I was actually taken a bit off guard by her comment.

[cstone]

So the nice young lady is curious and checking you out. She decides to make some conversation about your manly physique by commenting on your t-shirt and you show her more. She then attempts to determine where you stand politically on the Syrian refugee crisis to make sure that you are her kind of "red blooded American man" and you enlighten her about a two year old local Colorado gun rights issue.

I am beginning to see why you have a strong affinity for cats. [LOL]

Put down the bong Chuck, just walk away....

Is this the same eating establishment where you had your last liberal encounter with the "prostitute"?

[Aloha_Shooter]

On the good side, the flight attendant complimented me on my NRA Life Member leather jacket as I boarded my plane today. He also admired my OD Green Go-Bag/Range Bag that I use as a briefcase/laptop case. 45 hours until I can leave this shithole of a city/state ... (not that I'm counting or anything).

I'm thinking this.. it may be a 2 hour trip each way, but based on some of your experiences it may just be amusing enough to be worth it...
nothing that fun happens here in COS or "Hell's belly button" (as foxtrot calls it)

I get much more responses from my "let me DROP everything and work on your PROBLEM" T-shirt... me thinks that right-wing shirts are just not that unusual where I frequent.

[TheGrey]

I've been incredibly fortunate to receive supportive compliments on my "Free Colorado" T-shirt. :)

[SuperiorDG]

I'm sure working there she gets to meet all kinds of Muslims.

Come on over for a cat food melt !!! No politics involved [Coffee]

Oh man. That is funny!

[BushMasterBoy]

She should get a job at a taxidermist, you know...the one next to the abortion clinic.

Same here. Even the teenage kid working at Little Caesars complimented the shirt. I was a little surprised by that one. Another older guy at home depot talked to me for like 10 minutes and said thanks at the end. :)

WTF? Go collect your marbles. [facepalm]

Well done on calling the manager.

This her?

or was she more tame like this:

[ANADRILL]

You should have said not all of them, just the head chopping ones...

[brutal]

On my way out to the gun club one warm summer day, I stopped by the Elizabeth hardware store (True Value?) and happened to be wearing a shirt the kids got me that has a pic of an AR and says "Asshole Remover." Got a lot of great compliments on that one.

[asmo]

She has been told, over and over and over again, that redneck gun owners hate all the dem black people, da jews, and now dem muslims. *sigh*.. But remember, if you ask her she doesn't support sterotyping.

[asmo]

Oh and 3/10.. you're slipping.

[TEAMRICO]

Spicy cheddar sausage.

Sides.......?
