You don't pull a gun on someone based on their bumper stickers.

He was way out of line and I question him being allowed to continue owning guns.

He's a shootout waiting to happen.

I would say the same if some deranged liberal with a gun pulled one on a right winger, too.

And, yes... there are deranged liberals who own guns and right wingers who do not.

In my area all pickups are outfitted with what appears to be a standard package of right wing and redneck lifestyle brand bumper stickers. The package can vary but it always includes stickers from Trump, Bass Pro Shop, something gun related - NRA, Glock, etc., some type of hunting brand or slogan, something over the top jingoistic and at least one sticker that insults liberals, democrats, Muslims or gays.

Yikes, that sounds pretty awful. We have a lot of that here too, but not quite as much as what you're seeing where you live.

I live in the heart of Palin's Real America, where the average person invests more in ammo and camo than in a 401k.

Ammo won't go down in value, unlike most stocks available to a 401k. Just sayin.

Your beloved leftist antifa folks like to take water bottles from people in wheel chairs and throw the water on them....

Your beloved lefties like to take target practice on repubs on softball fields....

Your short memory is noted....

He will go through the legal process, and yes he will lose his right to own guns, or to at least carry guns depending on what his lawyer can do. IMHO, he should NOT be able to have a gun as he is irresponsible, and shows great lack of judgment.

The one I find most humorous is the poor redneck driving a rusted out 25 year old Geo Metro with right wing stickers like "I'll keep my guns, freedom and money; you can keep the change"

If you had money, you would wear better clothes, have better hygene and at least drive a fairly late model midsize car
