Wondering if people like this were bullied or abused early in life? That they are now trying to get back some semblance of control, and maintain an ongoing ability to get revenge or get back control that they never felt as a child? ….. Besides that, those jeans are about to drop for sure!
That, or they were just the bullies themselves and want to continue feeling that sense of power in adulthood (and couldn't make it as a cop, the usual path for that).
Yeah I'm just gonna go out on a limb here and say that the ideology that attracts nazis, bankers, business execs, jarheads, uneducated, racist, sexist bigots were probably the bullies in school.
Because they were bullied at home and yet go on to say things like, "my parents beat me and I turned out fine!" as they beat their own kids continuing the cycle.
Dude's got a Hank Hill butt. I bet he uses prosthetics when he mows.
Most likely they are scared folk. The NRA has instilled fear in them even though crime is down.
Everyone I've ever seen open carry a handgun has been publically abusive of the people they were with (spouse/children) and it was obvious that the open carry handgun was to make sure nobody intervened in their abuse.
