I carry a gun into grocery stores too. And into my bank as well.

[Why]

there is some heavy trolling going on in this thread.

that being said.

i own guns, i will always own guns, my opinion is not open for argument, anyone who doesnt like gun owners, can GFY!

Countries that have never had legal right to carry have no experience in dealing with this matter, thus they have no say and their opinions are useless, being based entirely on speculation rather then experience.

Put your money where your mouth is.

Donny posts his edited CCW permit and you pay him $100.00 as a troll tax.

WTF makes you think he doesn't have a permit?

i just dont think he does.
if i remember correctly, he is in northern cali.
whats with the trolling name calling, i am commenting on a donny post, if you dont care for what i write just put me on ignore and move on, i never asked for your opinion.

Name calling? I'm just posting an observation and I observe you trolling.

So what if he lives in NorCal? What's your point?

Put up or STFU.

This is the Springfield XD40 Tactical. It's too big to carry on a daily basis, but I do occasionally carry it. I don't think I have any pics pointing the Glock 26 at the camera. But trust me, I have a CCW and carry.




On the bottom row (the handguns), the second from the left is the Glock 26 I carry. It fits easily into pockets even of jeans.

You're American?

You need MORE guns!

Aaron had a great idea. If you really want to put your money where your mouth is, bet me $100 that I don't have one. We can both PayPal the $$ to Aaron. He can PayPal the "winner". Deal?

Donation to the church, that way it would be tax free ;)

A troll tax? I love that idea

Congrats to all the winners!

This post violates GFY rules. On GFY you post a reasonable, well thought out, respectful reply to someone who disagrees with you. You're supposed to compare the other side to Nazis when they point out a fact like "it's hard to carry a cop". You're noir allowed to actually read what the person writes, comprehend it, and respond with intelligence and reason.

Bravo. We see things differently, and I LOVE talking to someone who sees things differently than I but doesn't get into silly name calling ir made up "facts". That's how I learn and grow.

I would like to applaud this exchange!

You know what? You are another closed mind person watching TV in Canada...... your brain has been fried from the Libs that were in power for too long.....

If you want to laugh, maybe you can come and laugh and explain to the families of numerous victims of street gangs around here....laugh all you want, but keep in mind that we are all free to have our own opinion, but when you own or represent a program like Pimproll in your nick and sig, you should be moderated in your comments dude...

What do you mean about both sides agreeing on this issue???? Liberals and NDP followers do not agree on people having guns......Conservatives DO!

Maybe Canadian cities are safer than US cities, but I would still be carrying a gun if I could.......

"Around here" is interesting, guess you're living in Vancouver or Edmonton or somewhere like that? Perhaps a poor or shitty area of Toronto?

Street gangs are a social problem, not a gun problem. If street gangs didn't exist you wouldn't feel the need to carry is basically your point. They do exist in places and that means you need protection perhaps, but arming everyone won't solve the street gang problem it will make it worse.

It is totally rational to protect yourself from known threats but when your threats get bigger so do your problems.

For example, I grew up in a shithole area in the UK, the houses looked nice only because they were new and the bricks and mortar of a place are immune to the bullshit of society.

I used to fight all the time when I was young, put friends through pain just to release my anger and got into trouble quite often because of it.

I've been in situations with police on both sides of the fence, when I was young I done something stupid and got caught and ended up being punished. 5-8 years later I was a victim and the same people who taught me a lesson helped teach someone else a lesson.

I carried a knife at one point, never had to use it, it was my brain causing me to believe I needed it because I read about people being stabbed and robbed and mugged.

Yes these people are out there, but the last time someone wanted to steal something of not "real" value but of a fair monetary value from me I laughed at him, he didn't know what to do. The basic truth is he wanted me to "lend" him my bike, or he was going to take it anyway. I pulled the biggest grin let out a huge laugh and looked at his little face as if it was an Orange. Nothing come of it.

I don't know why he felt he could try to push me around but I wouldn't let him, I never had any weapons available to me but my logic, my hands and my feet.

Just some personal shite to throw into the mix of the keyboard warrior bullshit that seems to flying around so far.

Carrying a gun does not make you tough, not carrying a gun can sometimes make you stupid (depending on where you are of course) But if guns didn't exist then we would be having this conversation about swords and knives instead.

I don't think it takes a certain level of Skill, IQ, or Power to kill someone, it is quite the opposite, no well taught level headed and socially aware person could take another persons in (almost) any situation.

Aaron, what do you think about mentally unstable people like Donny who are granted a CCW permit, or are even allowed to own guns?

[Emma]

carrying guns is nothing to be afraid of

[AaronM]

I think Donny, just like you, me, and everybody else in the world, has had his high points and low points in life. His mistake was making all of his personal problems a public affair. I am one of the only people in the adult industry who has remained his friend through everything he has been through so I'd say I know him better than most others around here. Everybody else claimed to be his friend and then bailed on him in his darkest hour. To me, giving up a good friendship because we have different opinions is "crazy." A number of you sit back and make comments about him being mentally unstable without knowing him at all. If I were in your shoes, I might think the same thing based on the actions we've all seen on GFY.

Although I do not agree with Donny on a number of things, I don't believe he is any more mentally unstable than any of those trolling him. In fact, from my viewpoint, he's more stable than most of them.

Have you seen him interact with his Son? I have and TBH, him and StuartD are the two best parents I have ever met in my life. BOTH have been through tough times and have come out just fine, all things considered.

If somebody is truly mentally unstable then no, they should not be allowed to own any guns. However, the U.S. Federal Government says that decision/diagnosis is to be made by:

"a court. board. commission, or other lawful authority." (question 11f on Form 4473)

"or other lawful authority" includes the Sheriff that Donny had to interview with to get his CCW Permit. It does not include a bunch of people on an Internet forum.

Is it a perfect law? No. Could Donny snap and kill somebody? Perhaps he could but so do cops from time to time and most people trust them with a gun, no?

In the last week, multiple people here have suggested I'm crazy just for carrying a gun. Crazy is defined as:

"1. mentally deranged; demented; insane."

If those who are so against CCW were the ones making the laws and they all labeled us a crazy for carrying then there would be no such thing as a CCW Permit.
