    The difference is that I've never met a bible-thumper that was open-carrying and announcing their intentions to persecute us secular hethens. Nor have I met one who wanted to install a strict Calvinist or Baptist rule of law for all people. Another liberal trying to use straw man tactics and exaggeration to misconstrue the argument. So if, like in his example, they were extremists who were outspoken about their intent to dismantle the country, I would not be okay with it. The exact same way I'm not okay with White Nationalists or Black Separatists who want to do the same. It's not a xenophobic or racist issue, despite the author and left's attempts to frame it as such.

    I don't have a fear of Muslims. I know people from Morocco, Iran, and Saudi Arabia. If any of them came and asked me to introduce them to firearms and the safe and effective carry of them for defensive purposes, I'd be really happy to see my foreign-born friends wanting to exercise their rights. I'd be proud to share the tradition of our 2nd amendment with brothers who have chosen the opportunity and freedom afforded in this country over the antiquated dogma and oppression of their native lands. So, to answer the author's question without the trickery, I'd be all for it.

    Exactly- He's trolling... I have no intention of answering him directly.

    Would I give them a second look- most likely... human nature, I'm naturally suspicious even if I haven't had personal experience with being shot at by any ethnic group.
    I generally profile anyone open carrying- but I call it "threat assessment"

    When I'm stuck somewhere in public and bored (Waiting for spouse, etc), I frequently engage in a game of "threat assessment" where I assign each person I see in the crowd a number based on their appearance and behaviour- and then observe them. (it can pass the time rather quickly- just a little twist on what other people call "people watching).
    ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ, we are the III%, CIP2, and some other catchphrase meant to aggravate progreSSives who are hell bent on taking rights away...
