2A Supporters caffeinating themselves at Starbucks is “brewing” heat with Anti Gunners
So yesterday I was supporting Starbucks by buying coffee while open carrying to show my appreciation to the fine establishment for not giving into individuals who would  like Starbucks to ban anyone from entering with a firearm where local law permits. This is hardly the first post on this blog on this topic, but the support has brewed (you see what I did there) even more disgust among anti gunners.
This was the photo of ME from yesterday.
Well my photo was used without permission, but I’m not really concerned about that as much as I am the assumptions that are made from the anti gunners. Keep in mind, I had been in the Starbucks for about 20 minutes, I knew my surroundings and wanted to “pose” for a picture to post on the Guns For Everyone Forum to promote Starbucks as a place where people from all backgrounds can go and enjoy some coffee or other refreshments.
So who used the photo? Several sites and that’s fine, really, I don’t care. One organization in particular used it twice on their facebook fanpage and had some interesting comments going. Below are some screenshots:
I have to say, I actually find it amusing that they can’t ever come up with their own content. Their own meetups and causes, taking photos, posting to their walls and blogs. It’s easier to ridicule and bash others who give a shit enough to stand up for what they believe in which is also LEGAL and write about it, take photos as well as video and share with the world. All these guys do is start a page, and steal everyone elses original shit, and then just bashes it like little pussies. Why don’t they put themselves out there and be vulnerable instead of hiding behind their keyboards like little pussies.
Why don’t you come meet us at Starbucks and sit down and have a meaningful conversation about our differences. If it makes you that uncomfortable for me to be armed I will leave it in the car so you can really tell me what you’re scared of. I’m a pretty open minded individual that is willing to talk to anyone about anything without writing them off, as long as they have the decency to reciprocate that respect.
I expect to much from people, and I know arguing on the internet doesn’t really lead to any change, but I like to think that maybe people could come up with something of their own that starts dialogue rather than taking the easy route and just bashing those who actually have the balls to stand up for what they believe in.
keep carrying bitches.
Seacrest out!
I saw the photo and I just thought you were trolling for a date. You should comment on CSGV’s posts, saying that you are the guy in the photo and see how many friend requests you get.
Hey Sean, thanks for the comment. The thought had crossed my mind, but then again I really didn’t want to troll right back. It’s more fun to sit back and just watch the train wreck. Maybe I should go on, but I think it would just be perceived as a flame tactic..
You can ask them to cease and desist usage of your photo. Make them take their own darn shots (no pun intended).
Good on you for getting a good one. I was by myself, and I figured the tripod would get me the wrong kind of attention!
What a sexy bastard he is in that pic. I would have bought his coffee.
Fantastic picture. BTW if you’re some big scary dude, nobody in the shop seemed to give two shits!
Keep up the good work!
