    The think book is definitely correct about the 'Fudds', 'Sunshine 2A Supporters', and 'Lying Snakes' being some of our greatest threats, but I feel like the terms 'Culture' and 'Community' are misused. Community involves a specific group of people. Culture involves what what we support and how we support it. A Culture is exhibited by a specific Community. We are a Gun Community, and that separates us from other communities because ours is about our support for the 2A and etc, while a Gardening Community is about Gardening. Our culture, which is Gun Culture, involves us going to shooting ranges, preparing for home and homeland defense, teaching responsible gun ownership, etc. Like every community, we have members who either don't truly get the Culture, or are Lying Snakes who weren't really apart of the Community to begin with.

    Personally I don't care if someone owns a gun or not. Liles to shoot or doesn't. Hunts or doesn't. We all as Americans should respect and defend the constitution and the right to keep and bear arms and call out and berate and curb stomp anyone who threatens it. We all know that will never happen, but it would be nice

    Well anyway here is what he said in the book about Gun Culture VS Gun Community

    "Gun community is a bunch of politically correct mommas boys who worry about appealing to their liberal Democrat masters. They are the Tories, they only have a gun at the mercy of the King.
    Well, there's another reason not to like him - gatekeeping.
    Who is he that he gets to decide who's in and who's out? (Oh yeah, the great James Yaeger)

    sounds like a lot of self aggrandizement and ego stroking.

    When I hear gun culture I think pink pistols, Glock stickers on vehicles, and don’t tread on me t shirts. Nothing wrong with any of those. When I think community I think INGO, helpful, and observant.

    Just wondering where these folks fit into "gun culture".

    Why some LGBTQ people in New Hampshire are taking up arms

    “I mean, if you go far enough left, you get your guns back,” says Guardian, a pseudonym for a member who says he is fearful of his family being targeted, when asked about his politics.

    Dressed in full camouflage, Guardian wears a hat with a patch that says "Make Racists Afraid Again."

    He says he’s been around guns his whole life, and now sees them as a way to protect queer people and queer spaces.

    Pink Pistols, Rainbow Reload - there's two pro-gun groups, with an arguably gun culture, that doesn't fit into the conservative machismo mold Yaeger set forth.

    Not that I agree with them on those things, but a constitutional right is for all.



    EDIT: I hope the rest of the book is more practical, and less political, but you haven't sold me, OP.
