Men work harder jobs outside in inclement weather and longer hours on average year to year. They also work much more dangerous jobs. Somehow I get the feeling women won't want to trade.
You're saying she doesn't feel threatened I'm saying I don't know either way you seem to meet up your mind because of whatever reason can't really figure out why but that's an awful lot of assumption going on over there buddy.
No it's a threatening display of a firearm. Simply having a gun in your hand pointed at the ground is not brandishing. Also, there would have to be someone who could visibly see it for brandishing to even be possible. If Im standing in an empty parking lot with my gun at my side, am I brandishing? If you think I am? Brandishing it to who?
So many people know absolutely nothing about firearms and firearm laws. Especially in Reddit lol. I give a pinch of shit about your upvotes. The masses are fucking dumb. Real dumb. They'd be the last people I'd turn to for firearms advice. I've learned from professionals. Not what the tv tells me. I've learned by doing. Have you?
She's not walking around, she's pumping gas. No one said anything about walking around. You're injecting things now that have nothing to do with what we're talking about. If I'm pumping gas, and I see someone approaching me and I'm concerned, you bet your fucking ass I can unholster and let it hang or use a high retention technique as to not flag anyone. It's perfectly acceptable if you feel threatened. I'm not arguing about posing for photos or whatever else you think you know about this photo.…
Appeal to authority? What in god's good name are you stuttering about now. Say it with me, professional firearm instructors. It's what they do for a living... That's all they do. They know more than you. It's not an appeal it's an education. That's why you get training. That's why you read the laws.
You know what they say about opinions! I've had firearms training from real professionals. Who actually know what the fuck they're talking about. You don't. They do. The end.
So when can I pull? Should I wait until someone is right in top of me? Actually beating me over the head? Or should I wait and check the law? I'm not waiting that long. It's called defensive display of a firearm. I've taken training classes and this very thing was covered. Good to be educated!
Still not brandishing. May be disorderly conduct in some states. I don't know how she feels. I'm not there. Do you? Are you sure? She may be in a real shitty neighborhood. She may have an overall general feeling if being threatened. How do you know? Do you live where she lives? You probably don't.
Brandishing: wave or flourish (something, especially a weapon) as a threat or in anger or excitement. No waving, no threat, doesn't appear to be angry or excited. Not brandishing.
Still isn't brandishing. She isn't waving it, pointing it or threatening anyone with it. Not brandishing. All that other shit you're talking about has fuck all to do with brandishing. I don't care about her purse or car.
Brandishing definition: wave or flourish (something, especially a weapon) as a threat or in anger or excitement. Simply holding a firearm at your side is not brandishing. It's just not. If that were the case you'd literally have to wait until someone was physically assaulting you before you pulled your gun. Too late by then.
That is most definitely not brandishing. It's at her side,it's not being pointed at anyone. There is a thing called defensive display of a firearm. If you feel threatened this defensive display is legal. It's not a quick draw competition. I don't have to wait until I'm being physically attacked to pull.
