And may that POS liberal read that and put two and two together

If he’s one of the few that can count

[cloudmountain]

People have ALWAYS been killing each other. Cain killed Abel and Cain had no gun.

One of the nastier forms of murder was/is arson: it killed the guy or gal, burned down everything aroud him and usually everyONE around him.

The gun is far more sensible as it inflicts death on ONLY the ahole, not anyone else or anything else.

[The KG9 Kid]

We don’t have liberals or trains here.

[Shady]

Touché.

[Balding_Eagle]

Although you may hate me, a gun owner, I would risk my life for you.

That's probably the only mistake in the letter.

[Bryanw92]

>> It must hurt carrying that much hate inside of you.

Its not really hate of us or guns. It’s fear. They are cowardly little people who “hold their manhoods cheap”. Our willingness to carry a gun and defend others makes them hate themselves.

[goldbux]

Well-written letter. Gun owners can be polite, & literate too!

[visualops]

Lack of maturity. Fear, jealousy, self-centeredness. Childish and immature world view.

[exnavy]

P.S. from all of us gun owners and carryers, we defend your right to be unarmed, do not attempt to disarm me/us.

Are Mass. residents allow CCW?

[Stormdog]

“Are Mass. residents allow CCW?”

Yes, with a license.

[21twelve]

Yes, MA has CCW. In 2015 I just read where permits are up 65%.

[IronJack]

“I don’t have any ill feelings toward you.”

Liar.

[Vermont Lt]

You can also Carry Open. I would not recommend it.

[Oratam]

Your liberal self-righteousness and ignorance may have made you feel superior and comfortable . . . .

This guy demonstrated not only a lack of consideration for his fellow commuters but a lack of awareness by running his mouth on public transit. They suffer from the presumption that everyone in their vicinity shares their liberal opinions. To them, the nuts are always "down there."

[CGASMIA68]

yea its like the snake or whatever proverb.....
The lib next to you would have called the ops on you in a heart beat if the POS was aware,you were armed.legal or not

Libs suck always will

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

No, it is hate. The most hate filled people in the world are inevitably dyed-in-the-wool liberals. And old #423 on Fitchburg Line out of North Station is full of them.

[SecondAmendment]

Of course liberals hate gun owners and the Second Amendment, we are the ultimate firewall against their dream of a universal world religion disguised as a political movement ... sound familiar ???
