I sometimes visit ugly guy forums just to gloat.
Do you ever wonder if Gun Control Advocates lurk or even sign up on Gun Forums?

I hope they do. Perhaps they'll learn what they missed while smoking grass behind the gym during 8th grade civics.
Abso-freakin-lutely dead on.

On another forum, the topic of open carry was being discussed. One guy on there sad he was stopped by the police for riding his motorcycle with his AK slung over his back and a molle vest full of mags. He said it was perfectly legal. I commented how stupid it is and I got an avalanche of “FUDD!” And “traitor the the cause” comments.
Those idiots are in the minority, but their actions speak the loudest, and like it or not, they do paint all gun owners as gun nuts.

That type of action only attracts negative attention and ends up losing us support among many who we should be keeping on our side.

I know. That’s why they do it. They want the attention. I saw a guy last year with a large Glock in a tactical thigh high rig at a gas station. His license plate read “OPN CRRY”.
He should change it to "LOW IQ"

Guess I am one of those people that you speak of, although mostly I keep it in my mind and not on here.
While I don't post a lot on here I am of the opinion that it is important to know most of the things that you say are condescending.
Knowing the possible cost and consequences of using a handgun, or for that matter any weapon, in self defense should be important to anyone who carries one.
Training is important. Everyone should have the availability to carry a firearm but that doesn't mean that everybody should.
Regardless of the number of post you have on a gun forum that does not equate to being a well trained person. It just means that you post a lot on a gun forum. Many people on here post the majority of their comments in the Lounge section. Which I find a great deal of fun but doesn't add a lot to my knowledge or ability with firearms.
I also don't fall lock step in with every strong 2A group that is out there.
Sorry if that doesn't sit well with you.
That is what makes this country great. The ability to have a difference of opinion.
And no, I am not an anti-gunner and am sure they are watching.

I think some of those folks think open carry applies to beer cans while driving. I remember going to gun show after I had been away in the muzzle loading world in the late 70's and seeing all these shirts for sale on the AR 15 focused tables: "Kill them all and let God sort them out". And I thought what lousy publicity for shooters and gun enthusiasts. And second, it is a lousy rendition of the original ""Kill them. The Lord knows those that are his own" from the religious massacre at Bezziers around 1200
I understand the point of the thread is about human trolls. In all honesty those are usually more of just an annoyance or entertainment, depending on how you deal with them. In the digital world monitoring is all about algorithms.
If anyone remembers the old movie It's a wonderful life with Jimmy Stewart. There's a quote where the angel says “Every time you hear a bell ring, it means that some angel’s just got his wings.”
Having been in management at a gun store/range I can't help but think of that.
By that I mean each time I hear leftist liberals and politicians speak out against the 2nd Amendment and talk about gun control it means yet another law abiding citizen buys their first gun.
I've witnessed this first hand, and helped people from all races/ethnicities, both male and female.
If only these trolls could understand that criminals get their guns illegally in the first place.
There's been a rash of car jackings in our city lately, most of which have been punks under the age of 16. Criminals do not follow laws and surely won't abide by any stupid gun control law.

I really don't think it is about safety or the fact that criminals can/will get a weapon regardless of laws. It is about control. When you armed, they have to negotiate with you, convince you to do what they want, if unarmed, they can force you to do what they want.

The Media will seek out the most repulsive individuals & organizations that represent the opposition view. It’s no accident, look at any issue and look who gets put on Network News.
If opposition looks to be mainstream type people, they won’t use that. No can’t have reasonable people or others may see the light.

I would assume that anti's do look over forums like this for evidence that they want, but I do not worry about it all all or expect it to do them any good.
How can you tell?
One clue is when they insist that in order to compromise, we must give up X in order to save Y. When in reality, they want to get rid of X period, regardless of its affect on Y. They likely don't want Y either.
Then in the next round, they will insist that we must give up Y in order to save Z.
Rinse and repeat.

Of course the antis are lurking. As well as various LE agencies. Right along with a bunch of crazies and whackos. All just waiting for that little nugget they can use.
So what? Its the internet and open to anybody who wants to read it. Just be mindful of what you say and carry on with your own life. No need to get your panties in a twist.

It’s more than the anti gunners. Believe me.
