NNO is meant to encourage interest in community anti-crime activities such as Neighborhood Watch. Neighborhood Watch specifically tells people not to carry weapons of any sort and not to confront people.

Although, to be fair, you only suggest carrying extra ammo, you don't say anything about a weapon. I better not ASSUME you're suggesting people carry loaded guns and go looking for trouble.

Who said anything about fear? And regardless of whether anyone said anything about fear, where's the proof to back up your quote? Or is it just a soundbite that gives you a greater reason to desperately cling to your guns?

You are untrainable in this arena. You have your bias, and you will "bygod" never back down from it. I accept that.


My acceptance, and unwillingness to spend endless hours here at this forum has been labeled "drive by's".

It is simply acceptance that no minds will be changed.

But I WILL exercise my right to voice my opinions, even if I don't stick around for the blah blah.

Usually, studies start with abstracts, not overviews. And they often explain the hypothesis and the experimental procedures. This overview seems to be a statement of fact. One might also note that scientific studies almost never state the conclusion as "fact".

I see nothing in the table of contents or the overview to suggest that this is in the least either a study or a neutral article.

You post a quote making a claim. You give no reason that the claim is true. And you take offense at someone pointing out that fact.

And you say that I have my bias? At least I give evidence and logical reasoning to support my claims.

You give WHAT?

Fact. Oregon is an open carry state.
Fact. I have been open carrying for over 6 months. I started with "open carry Saturday", and have evolved into all weekend, and evenings.
Fact. I have had ZERO encounters with law enforcement OR negative responses from any citizen.
Fact. I have been COMPLIMENTED for doing so.
Fact. The only negativity toward my opinions and beliefs come from THIS little shitwater forum.
Fact. MY research has shown me that my opinions, attitude, and political philosophy are the NORM in our community, and yours are far behind.
Fact. Is it any wonder I only come here for entertainment? And there is damn little of that, now that THIS shithole forum got coopted by YOUR socialist "rules"?

And there's a complete non sequitur. What does any of that have to do with anything I just said?

I refer you to this thread, as you seem to need a refresher:

All right. Let's parse this rationally. If I remember correctly, you live in JoCo, but not in a city. That means you're regularly open carrying in a more rural area. Rural areas are more likely to be populated by conservatives. Conservatives are less likely to confront you for carrying a weapon than liberals are. JoCo has piss poor funding for law enforcement. Law enforcement is more likely to confront you for carrying a weapon than civilians are, but since there's almost no law enforcement, there's not much of anyone to confront you.

Assuming all of these are correct, you're open carrying in a little bubble that pretty much represents your own opinion and carries a low risk of confrontation for openly expressing that opinion. And somehow, this is supposed to make your arguments more logically convincing?

With my IBS and my SO's Crohn's disease, I'm pretty damned sure I do know shit.

You, on the other hand, seem to be incognizant of whether your head is buried in shit or not.




Perhaps if you attempted to present logical rational and supporting evidence, you might be occasionally know you have your head up your ass, and maybe come to know your shit that way.

Nice, a 1990 opinion piece published by a conservative organization. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacific_Research_Institute I'm sure it's gotten plenty of peer reviewed support since then?

But when you start with a false premise, your theory falls completely apart. I have never lived in JoCo in my life.

Fact. (not to mention common freaking sense!!) Most people won't confront a redneck carrying to gun to express their negativity about said redneck carrying gun.
Fact. Birds of a feather flock together and will likely croon sweet nothing compliments to a redneck carrying a gun.
Fact. Only when one puts themselves in a position for a diverse group to observe them, not just their redneck friends, is there is a greater chance of those in the diverse group having negative opinions.

Not knowing where "our community is", all I can say is "so what?".... No credibility added when we don't know what community you are referring to. Meh...

Not at all. I would go on a limb and say entertainment is the primary reason anyone comes here. Good call Capt. Obvious! Cool

Well then, it's a good thing I qualified my statement with "assuming all these are correct".

Since they're not, perhaps you would be kind enough to tell us where, when, what, and how often you open carry.
