I don't think he knows about second gun, Pip.
Why is the mental image of Pippin shooting Aragorn so fucking funny I'm gonna shit my pants laughing
This is like the most USA thing i have ever read and- yeah whatever i wonder if this is even real or just a movie trope atp
This absolutely is a thing in some gun circles. They will open carry their main weapon, and then ankle holster a small derringer style. And every gun nut will point to stories like this and say SEE IM NOT CRAZY.
You have to admit, he was right.
Thing is if I was this guy I would feel 100% vindicated because of this moment.
I think it would make sense depending on where at in the us you live. If you live in a high crime metropolitan area then I'd say go for it.
If you live in the Styx or in a relatively low crime area its overkill.
On the other hand, sometimes when a criminal sees you have a gun they just shoot you immediately that has happened in my city several times, someone pulls a gun on them but holds it like a limp dick because they are scared and the thing they don't realize is the person robbing them at gun point likely uses that gun every day...
Its nuanced and I really don't know the solution to it at all because if you take them away from everyone those people that use them every day and rob people at gun point will still have them and if you're counting on the police to help you HA good luck. If they even show up you'll be lucky that they don't just shoot everyone.
If you live in the Styx
The Styx as in ... the mythical river that runs through the underworld? Yeah, I can see that being a low crime area...
(Sorry, european here, if you meant someplace in the US, I've never heard of it)
It's like the hank Hill wd40 mini can
It feels like a baccano scene.
It’s a great thing to see someone can protect them selves and rid us of a slum of a human
Coincidentally, i don't need anything to defend myself where i live because all weapons are illegal to carry in public, i can carry chilli pepper spray but that's it
It's like i always say, the only thing that can stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with two guns; that's why police always carry a rifle in the car.
Usually a shotgun sits up front. Maybe a rifle in the boot? I’m no copologist, but they likely don’t have a rifle unless situations warrant. Maybe modern day society warrants it meow.
I saw a motorcycle cop with an AR-15 style assault rifle locked to the side of his bike, riding down the expressway, on my way home yesterday. The gun was verical near the rear on the rider's right side with the barrel pointed down. No shotgun though.
But what if good guy has two guns
Super secret third gun, obviously.
This guy guns
Sure but what if they take your boot gun AND your butt gun? What then??
Front gun is it, then.
if they take the butt gun they already fell into my trap
/s?

Always carry a decoy wallet and a decoy gun. That way you give the decoy wallet and gun, the robber is distracted then you have plenty of time to shoot them with the real gun
New strategy is to have 3 guns
That was the old strategy. We're up to 7 guns now.
You gotta give the kids a gun too, they'll never expect that and they don't ever expect a kid to have a wallet so they won't search them to find it.
I think I cracked the code! /s
Man robbed of three guns at gun point shanks robber with his knife.
Gun owner: Hey, you can't do that.
Yo dawg, I heard you like guns...
This reminds me to play yet another round of enter the gungeon
Amen
I always see these two (or ones that look like them, sometimes one of them is old) in movie communities/posters/memes. Were they part of some comedy group, or in a movie together?
Is the US even a real place?
If I say no loud enough do you think it’ll make it true?
It’s the classic paradox: having no gun restrictions enables lawbreakers to steal others guns and use them for illicit purposes. America truly is the last bastion of esoteric law
