38. I have question,

May 2016

there are black and gay folks at the range I go to. Some of them have ARs, mostly pistols. Why would I treat them different than a straight or other color person?

Question is, would YOU treat a black or gay person with and AR differently? How about a lever or bolt action? What if he has a TAVOR? AUG?
I've stood in lunch lines with people who had loaded machine guns. I don't know if they were straight or not. Didn't care, since they were on my side.
