I know plenty of people in PA that packed heat ALL THE TIME.
But I get the "you northeasterners."
I lived in some pretty "red-necky" parts that didn't really identify with urban areas and urban problems (even some parts of Pittsburgh when I lived there). Overwhelmingly, I think at least, gun control issues are more prevalent in more urban areas (except, obviously, in this case).

3. Kevin made it abundantly clear that it's common in Oklahoma that people to carry concealed weapons.
3a. And due to that, his 'you northeasterners' I divine to be in reference to the people in PA who were up in arms about this woman bearing arms who made her get her licence suspended.

Well I'm not in PA so where does the "you" come in?
And how was I in shock?

The people I know in NY don't pack heat because they can't fit their 12 guage into a holster.
We's a huntin' people. You get a shot gun for your 15th birthday around my parts. Not a lot of handguns though.

You mean like the time you called me a racist because I'm a Republican (before you edited the post, of course)? Was he doing that kind of "lumping" into categories?

I had never heard of HER situation before. That's not really shock.
And 2...whether you think I'm being ridiculous or not, he was including me in that. He knows it as well. And he's an idiot for doing so. But that just means that now I am free to make sweeping generalizations about him without him being able to get offended. Wonderful.

I called you a racist because of the content of what you were posting. And from here on out, none of you has any right or privilege to take offense if you feel I have lumped you into a category or made a sweeping generalization.

He was not.
Kevin has no frame of reference to call you a northeasterner when teh story itself says that this happened in Pennsylvaina which is ...where?

So, let me get this straight...
Lumping someone in as a Northeasterner - not ok.
Lumping someone in as a racist - ok.
Does that sum it up?
