I've heard him express his opinions many times, and other than the excited gestures and sudden changes in topic or lapses, he doesn't say anything any worse than you hear most conservatives saying. I really think it is his manner of expressing more than the content. Like I said, if you don't know him, and he gets going on one of his excited discourses, you might really think he is a nut.

I certainly don't disagree with any store or store owner's decision to sell or not sell (as long as it isn't prejudicial, based on a protected class, for example) and in fact, if he came to my store and I didn't know my BIL, I don't think I would sell him a gun either.

As I said, the strangest thing to me of this whole incident (assuming that his version of events is accurate) is the 30 day period, and the second store selling him the shotgun.
