Looking at my original post, guess I didn't state things like I intended. I'm not saying they shouldn't legally be able to own guns, or defend their home. I'm saying that if I were a gun-store employee, there's no way in hell I'd sell to some wanna-be G.

As far as my defining them as scum... regardless of what sweet, misunderstood, law-abiding little sugar cubes they may be on the inside, they're obviously of a mind-set to dress, speak, and behave outwardly in a manner that speaks to what they admire. If you're wearing your pants halfway around your ass, swaggering like you've got a steaming load in your skivvies, throwing out "nigga this" and "bitch that", you're scum. In my ever-so-humble-opinion.

But then again, I'm about as misanthropic as they come, so my definition of scum is broader than some folks'. :-)
