Would you run around a city centre in the US shooting at people with something that looked like a gun?
Would you do it if you looked like me? I'm of Indian origin, and there's no fucking way I'd do that, not in the US.
- sn0v 13y agoI don't think anybody should do that, irrespective of race, religion or location. It's dangerous, and could end up getting you killed by someone who's carrying a real weapon.
- anu_gupta 13y agoAnd this is precisely my point, especially in the US where so many people carry guns, presumably to be able to stop people who look like they might be a threat. But to imply that it wouldn't be even worse for someone who looks like they might be Middle-Eastern would be pretty disingenuous. I hope that's not what you mean.
- ericcumbee 13y agoI think you underestimate the intelligence of the average person that concealed carries.
