Do you openly talk about firearms?

Yep. Over here in Japan there has NEVER been any resistance to the governing authority for about 1800 years now, and in that context I refer to guns as "coup d'etat insurance," referring to Japan's conquest by its own army back in the 30's. They really don't understand how "government governs by the consent of the governed."

At work if anybody has a firearm question, they come to me. Everybody is aware of my stand on firearm's ownership and my loathing of "Slick Willy". I have no problem discussing firearms at all!!!!
By the way I try to answer any question correctly and if I don't know the answer , I'll tell them that I don't know.

Hey you stole my answer! :D

Well, I don't really have much occasion to get conversational with people except my coworkers, but...

I was asked by my shop floor supervisor to hand out United Way flyers (sardonic guy that he is, knows my opinions pretty well). I told everyone I gave a flyer to that the United Way supports gun control, and are "commies".

I told the Human Resources Director that seeing as firearms are prohibited on the premises, I've instructed my family and my lawyer to "litigate the company into the Stone Age" should anything "happen" to me on the way to or from work.

When my department supervisor make a joke about firing me, I said "Hey, you can't fire me now...I just bought an AK-47!"

Yes. :D

I suspect I'm WAY outta the closet... When I'm not wearing a tie-dye or Grateful Dead shirt, it's generally a Knob Creek, or other full auto shirt, or something promoting benchrest or the NRA... I'm into gimme caps too...

Occasionally I drive my truck to work...

There's one of the 11" NRA stickers on the back of the luggage bin...
 
Good topic, and one worth discussing further-- feel free to open Part II, as this one's reached 100k.

Locking this one, hoping to see a 2nd,
