How is it that everyone on this board says how they would spank their children, be slapped, never would have happened ... etc in response to the 4 kids bullying the elderly lady but the moment that I suggest that this man is an ass because he is rude, self serving, and confrontational to a cop subjects me to accusations of being a liberal or hating gun rights.
I guess I'll put this in bold since you did not read it the first time.
This man is not here to protect anybodies second amendment rights. He is likely some undergraduate pre-law student trying to cause a confrontation with the police, while using a hot button issue like gun rights to precipitate his objectives.
This man is not helping your rights, he is hurting them. What will liberals and moderates think when they see this video? 'Hey a gun owner, and he is being disrespectful and and ass to the cop who is just doing his job,' NOT 'look at the respectful gun owner who is protecting his rights and being trotted on by the police.'
And FYI, gun owners are not the majority in our country(in a recent gallup pole only 3/10 Americans own a gun personally, and 4/10 have one in the household), so it does matter what the liberals and moderates think, as well as how they vote. If you deny this you are simply uneducated on how American politics work.
So to reiterate he is an ass because of his actions; not for carrying a gun, not for telling the cop about his rights, not citing case law precedents. He is an ass because he baited a confrontation with the police, and then treated the responding officer with disrespect and self severing and confrontation behavior.
