We can have a problem or not when asked for personal information. We can answer the question or not. We can shop at Dick's Sporting Goods or not. But what we shouldn't do is raise our voices and take it out on a clerk being paid subsistence wages and who has zero control over policy. That is bullying behavior. That harms the cause of restoring RKBA rights. The biggest impediment to a positive view of gun rights with the public isn't Bloomberg and company. It's us when we get the negative in your face attitude with the public.
I believe you are wrongly attributing the quote to me. What you quoted was written by the OP. I am of the opinion that the OP was in the the wrong.
jkurtz, I am sorry. I obviously deleted the wrong tags when i quoted the OP. I corrected my original post. Again, i apologize for incorrectly attributing the quote tho you.
