I guess because those are more politically contentious than typical graduation props?

Guns and Trump are politically contentious, do you disagree?
She posted a pic to trigger the libs, mission accomplished.
When did small guns become contentious?
I support Trump, am I contentious?
While I think your takes here are weird, it ultimately skirts the point... I have tasked @syskatine (and you, and other leftists) with cleaning your political house and policing against those that believe either of the of the things you just asserted.
Modest chuckle.
Small guns being provacative IS genuinely news to me. There's no reasonable reason why but for political conflation in the gun control debate. But since her attackers are leftist, the implication is now the Left is certainly open to all measure of control and/or confiscation.
I'm fine with both of us policing our side. I've also done so already through conversations.
By the same token, the implication is the right is in favor of taking graduation pictures with a gun pointed at your crotch.
I don't believe you.
I believe the spotlight is on the environment that makes such a discussion even have to take place....as to reasonable minded folks, she isn't doing anything provacative.
Do you not believe me because in order to stick to your proposed agreement ("you first") you now have to actually police? Or do you simply think I'm lying?
I'm sure she did it because it was so damn banal.
I don't believe you. You could be lying or an unreliable narrator, either one.
I interpret what you are saying to be that it doesn't matter that the social environment is this way, hostility created by the left against small arms, the spotlight is on her behavior. Implication that leftist aggression toward small gun ownership is merited, and by extension, you are okay with the aggression.
I've got nothing in response to the latter. I don't need to prove anything to you. And my hypothesis is that it wouldn't matter anyway.
So where does this leave us?
No. Also I checked out her replies, the meanest thing I could find was a guy who thought she should get her lips plumped (could have been right or left).
Your going to have to prove something to me if you want me checking the replies to every TPUSA provocateur on twitter for trolls.
She quoted a few items dealing with "kill yourself" and her taking advantage of white privilege. Did you check all responses on twitter and Instagram? Is she lying?
She got 20.9K replies. That's a lot of streets to police. Also I am fine with people pointing out the white privilege thing.
Edit: I think twitter prioritizes replies by degrees of separation or some algorithm to that effect, so the replies of my people should have been near the top.
So you can't verify that the left masses were appropriate in their behavior.
You don't have to police all streets, that's absurd. Just your surroundings, your communities.
Her black, gun owning friends jumped in. Your white privilege pushers apparently backed down. Her words, I haven't verified.
It's white privilege to pose for a picture with a gun in your waistband? Weird. I've seen people of all kinds of color posing with guns.
Is there some sort of master compilation of all things that result from white privilege? Like the DSM of white privilege? It's hard to keep up. Now I'm worried that buying 3 boxes of Cheddar Bay biscuit mix is white privilege and can't fall asleep.
Brad, first things first. You need to make sure your "side" has some basic knowledge about gun safety if they're going to post pictures of themselves posing with guns, as they often do. That cute girl needs a holster. She's gonna hurt herself if she's not careful. That helps nobody on either side of the political aisle.
Please confirm you've cleaned up your side's firearm handling.

Can you tell me why, at the individual level, anybody should be penalized or elevated based on color of skin outside of currently written policy?
Gun as fashion... which arouses you more? Her navel, the action, the frame, or the barrel?
Shit, I have no idea. Every day I'm hearing of things that are my privilege because I'm white. I'm seriously stuck on the Cheddar Bay biscuit mix purchase. Did I marginalize any member of any victim class by buying three? What if I didn't leave enough for someone to buy one? What if someone was offended that I was buying three?
As I said, I've seen all kinds of people imaginable in a picture with a gun. I'm trying to figure out how being white with a gun in your waistband is privileged when I see so many pictures of black, brown, etc with guns in theirs. Is there a barrier between people of color and posing with a gun for a picture? Serious question.
I can't answer this until I get an answer from the discourse police on whether this is appropriate to discuss from the left
Its an important topic. Your tribal, binary, packaged-fox-narrative, programming hasn't axknowledged it, but proper firearm safety is important. As a genuine, true life firearm enthusiast, and not a suburban moron with an assault rifle, I personally vouch for the importance of proper firearm handling. I can recommend you some classes if you like.
How does this address your side getting after her...is the conclusion that she deserves it?
And what's with the name calling? You're getting lazy.
First, I've always called names.
Second, why do I have to follow your either/or narrative?
Third, what happened to her?
As an owner of 30 plus guns, I'd figure you'd know how to put a pistol in your waistband and not shoot yourself. Have we found a weak spot in your game? Need another session with the Great Eagle Spirit aka Bill Crenshaw of Crenshaw Trucking? Maybe he'll spring for the condoms for this lesson?
Lemme know. I can front the dollars to prevent your embarrassment, fellow arms enthusiast.
