Can you wear a tshirt with a pot leaf on it? Sure.

I think the question is, should a tshirt with a pot leaf be worn while making a firearm purchase? In today's frenzied finger-pointing climate, it may not be the best impression to make to walk into a gun store wearing any sort of "I heart cannabis" symbols. In the same token, it would not make the best impression to wear any sort of "statement" items; shirts decorated with dead-terrorist targets, gang symbols, racist-toned or otherwise- it all adds to the impression that gun owners are unbalanced and anti-social, "dangerous" types. Is it a little overboard? Sure it is. Are the anti-gun folks just dying to point out anything relating to guns that might prove them right? Of course they are.

Like it or not, we're lumped into a "we vs. they" struggle. We represent the gun owners and Pro 2A enthusiasts. Tell me you don't flinch a little bit at the news when there's been a shooting or something gun-related that nibbles away at the credibility we have. Why would you want to give the other side any more reason to grab a cell phone picture and post it on their blog with a caption that supports their opinion?
Well put.
I recall right after MMJ went through we had customers try to use their red card for I.D.
Stoooopid!
