Bill Maher versus Ammo-sexuals

[telemann.livejournal.com]

Bill Maher ended his show by going after the “nitwits” of the Open Carry movement and their belief that bringing a gun to a public place with “sane people’ who might freak out about seeing those guns is just a reasonable show of support for their Second Amendment rights. Maher said that these “playdates with other gun owners” might sound nice to gun lovers, but it might make the world a little nicer to live in if they aren’t walking around trying to “scare the bejeezus out of everybody.” In fact, Maher said these people are so obsessed with their firearms, there is only one real takeaway here: “You’re ammosexuals!” And there’s something weird about observing a gun owner harboring an “unnatural romantic relationship” with their guns.¹

So, it's not just the right to have firearms,
but the right of 'association', and maybe, down the line,
an extension of the right to marry.

but the right of 'association'

That raises an interesting question. If the owner / manager of the family themed restaurant didn't want customers carrying in their guns and weapons, you'd think the same crowd who crows about the right of those places to serve and not serve whoever they want (wink wink i.e. African Americans), would be consistent, and abide by those wishes (don't bring in your arsenal while having your meal here)

But, but guns are a fundamental Constitutional right;
serving minorities is not!

I've often wondered when my loudmouth NRA-fanatic friend is going to get gay married to his guns.

I am pro-gun and I absolutely would never allow armed customers into my stores. I want my employees to maintain a firepower advantage at all times.

I guess it's appropriate that 5.56mm is a standard bore size.

Good thing liberals are all so accepting of different lifestyles, right?

Only one group is consistent about this, and it's the same group that's alone in its consistentcy about so many other things: the libertarian left.
