The irony here is that the ESR-tier of gun nut is actually right. We do need guns to protect ourselves, because there are real people out there who intend us harm; either for our politics (generally some branch of anarchism) or because people like us have what the megacorporations dearly covet but can never seize for themselves.
I ain't saying glowniggers, but damned if it's not bleeding obvious that these twentysomethings are standing in pissing rain for nothing in particular, positioned such that their horizons of observation cross.
