Tactics & Mensa

Tactics
My frustration is showing a bit. Open carry has political and 2A issues. Many folks insist on bring up the issue of "tactics" but unless Open Carry becomes legal it's sort of like discussing the best way to carry into a Texas courtroom.
Mensa
I am a member because I read about it, in Readers Digest, when I was 13. At the time, I was too young to take their tests, so I decided to wait a year. 30 years passed and I finally found the time to take the test. (You must score in the top 2% of an IQ test to become a member.) When you pass, it means you're really good at taking tests.
I am a Consultant. I think my Mensa membership may move my Resume to the pile that gets interviewed. It might even help me with the rate.
Sometimes it seems that the general population views gun owners as "ignorant, inbreed, imbeciles". I mention my membership in Mensa just to confuse them. Maybe, I can convince them that their views are wrong.
On the other hand, I am not impressed with my Mensa membership. By definition, one in fifty folks are qualified for membership. I don't hang with Mensans too often, UNLESS, I meet them at the gun range
