As far as the rebel flag, I’m certainly not offended by it personally although I don’t get why anyone wants to flaunt that. But I agree that it serves no purpose there other than to give the liberals something to point at and stereotype all gun owners as backwards racist rednecks. Sorry if that offends your southern pride, big dog. But that’s the current reality of the perception behind that flag. Don’t think that will ever be stricken from the populist record.
On a separate note, the two guys with the African American gun group were great. Thought they were some of the best speakers there. Even if their speeches were short, to me they were meaningful. This is a group that sadly often aligns itself with the opposition and is underrepresented as far as gun rights are concerned.
One last thought....damn it would have been cool if a gun rights democrat bucked their party and came out to this rally and spoke. What a powerful message that would be if someone was brave enough to stand up and say that, while they don’t agree with most gun owners on issues like fiscal and social policy, they are at least on the same page with supporting this right under the constitution. But sadly, that’s probably a pipe dream. That kind of democrat just doesn’t exist, even up on the range.
