Nobody going to point out the ridiculous key ring? OK, maybe he needs all those keys for his job. Why the hell would you carry that around?!
This poor man desperately needs to feel important, needs to look important.
And for those of you not into gun culture, this guy is a wild outlier. There's nothing practical or sensible being rigged like that. You won't find anyone teaching or condoning this sort of thing, only as an example of what not to do.
Until a gun is able to shoot waifu body pillows at me I'm not taking this as a valid argument.
Appropriate regulations would allow the responsible carrying of weapons while stripping people like this of the ability to, well...do that. It would also probably help to normalize the culture in the eyes of the people who speak up against it.
Until a Trekkie walks into a school or supermarket and kills a bunch of folks with his cosplay tricorder, it's not fandom. It's violent insecurity and idiocy masquerading as bravery.
"drinking" culture, "bicycle" culture, "car" culture. It's just a way to express society's attitude towards those in animate object, and how our lives are impacted as a result.
Drinking culture in the US determines that you shouldn't drive while intoxicated. Car culture makes it impossible to get out of the bar withot driving, so it means that the most common way to get your drunk friend home is to call them an Uber.
There's no way that many keys fit into his pocket. So he has no choice but to carry them everywhere. His only other option would be to clip them to his belt, but that would leave less room for guns.
Open carry is only okay when hunting or out in the wilderness where other animals can hunt and kill you.
Under any other circumstances it's a huge liability and gives you no tactical advantage whatsoever as a wise character once said.
I carry when I can. Very few notice, and those that do know what to look for because they're doing the same. Responsible gun ownership is not for show.
