I’m surrounded by it in Texas and you’re 100% correct. These guys fetishize their guns and the idea of killing people. You’ll note after being around a 2A nut that they aren’t discussing things that worry them. Most of the language that you hear is along the lines of “I wish they would” or “I’d pop a motherfucker for trying that”.
They are genuinely looking for an excuse to legally murder someone and you should not feel safe around them.

It’s still fear. They’re just hiding their fear behind machismo. Like bullies always do.
