A video taken by a high school student shows Indiana state Rep. Jim Lucas flash a holstered gun to students who were visiting the statehouse to talk to lawmakers about gun control
Much ado about fucking nothing. He was like "I'm protecting your right to carry, blah blah, I'm even carrying right now". Whatever, this is basically an article and thread for pearl clutchers.
You know how it's crass and rude to drink in front of a recovering alcoholic, or to bring up traumatic triggers to people who are suffering PTSD(like say using a firecracker around a veteran). To people afraid of issues caused by gun ownership, there was no need to flash the gun to get his point across. It comes off as more of either a threat, or a total disinterest in treating the other side with respect.
So he said “I’m here to protect the right to do exactly what you’re protesting against”? That’s the point. I don’t think I would have been intimidated but I would have thought he’s a cunt.
