I’ve posted this before, but it’s worth posting again… He does a good job showing what their ideology is, and just how vile and empty it is… Just, FYI, it’s nasty stuff, that if you’re not in the mood will bring you down…

Someone should point out to them that they’re being played for chumps by the organizers of that atrocity- who plan to pass along their genes - but not yours.
Chumps!

I mean, if they’re not white alpha male enough to do that, isn’t that their problem? /s

Because the idea is to kill as many people as possible before he is killed himself eventually.
There is method to the madness.

Is it really too much of a burden transport your firearm in checked baggage, unloaded, in a locked container and sign the paperwork when you check in?

Well, apparently so, yes. People are idiots.

But checking a bag takes too long and costs $75! Much smarter to endanger the passengers.

If you really love your gun, isn’t she worth it?

But if you really love your gun you want it close to you all the time. Like, really close. Intimately close. Rationalizing this with some “good guy with a gun” or “if I do/don’t do X the terrorists win” or any other convenient bullshit.
“But my Glock is like a puppy! I just can’t put it in a box in the cargo hold! It needs to be with me!”
Alternative take: “This is my emotional support gun.” Which, sadly, is actually true in a perverse way, come to think about it.

If you love your gun, let her go.

On Feb. 5, a man in a studded leather mask and a Punisher T-shirt entered the Galleria Mall in Houston with a semi-automatic rifle slung over his shoulder and a Bible in his hand. Kendrick Simpo, a cop moonlighting as a security officer, saw that the man was walking toward a children’s dance event and tackled him. When police arrested the man, Guido Herrera, they found 120 rounds of ammunition stuffed in the cargo pockets of his pants, along with a .45-caliber concealed pistol.
Herrera did not face any gun charges that day, as it has long been legal in Texas to openly carry long guns.
Signs at the mall warned people not to bring guns inside, but Herrera’s lawyer, Armen Merjanian, said permitless carry shielded his client because it wasn’t clear whether the restrictions applied to the mall in general or to individual stores.
Herrera did nothing wrong, Merjanian said. He went to the mall to buy a hat. He brought the rifle along because he didn’t want someone to steal it from his car. The leather mask covered his nose and mouth to protect him from COVID. The Punisher’s skull logo pegged Herrera not as a menace, but as a Blue Lives Matter type.
“If you look at the cartoon, [the Punisher] supports law enforcement,” Merjanian said. “Guido had no intent to do any kind of harm.”
Police charged Herrera with misdemeanor disorderly conduct, accusing him of brandishing the rifle to threaten others.
About a month after the Galleria arrest, Herrera went to Houston’s FBI Office and asked to speak with the director. A pistol sat in his lap as he entered the parking lot.
This time, police charged Herrera with unlawfully carrying a weapon for leaving the unholstered gun in plain view.
Herrera pleaded guilty to unlawfully carrying a weapon, then a jury found him guilty of disorderly conduct for the Galleria mall episode.
Those crimes, both misdemeanors, earned him an 18-month prison sentence. Herrera, an Argentine national who has lived in the United States since he was a child, lost his status as a legal permanent resident because of the convictions and now faces the prospect of deportation.

Open carry is an explicit threat and just about the stupidest gun policy one could devise.

Geez, come on man! It takes 5 seconds to clear your weapon. Handle your business, re-chamber and holster the weapon and wash your damn hands on the way out.
Looks like he found a quicker way to clear the chamber.

What is is with folks trying to smuggle guns onto airplanes inside food?! Do they really think that peanut butter will deflect x-rays? I brought a chocolate salami through security earlier this year and they made me unwrap it. When I refused to give the TSA agent a sample he called me Mr. grumpypants.
And it’s easy enough to to bring the gun legally on the plane. Did this guy think he would have time to reassemble the firearm whilst in the midst of an incident of some kind?

The peanut butter was cheaper than the checked bag fee?
Nah - they just don’t want to be told that they can’t have their gun in the passenger compartment.
