Brave New Books is a small bookstore in Austin, TX. and apparently they made the ultimate sin of not only allowing Open carry in the premises, by offering a 10% discount for those who OC. Somebody in the Opposition took umbrage and actually snail-mail them a comment.
From their Facebook Page:
Would this be considered a double whammy? Insulting people engaged in the selling of books (First Amendment) because they allow Open Carry (Second Amendment)?
I am accused (and I am sure you too) that being a single issue voter for the Second Amendment is not a smart thing. I always contend that those who have no respect for one Amendment of the Constitution have no issues crapping on the rest if it is politically viable and profitable.
The Constitution is Either/Or, not Select Your Choices.
What kind and tolerant people of moderate temperament.
One of the first things I learned when I moved to Texas was that Austin was a liberal shithole. I always thought they should put a fence around it and require a passport to leave. A good fence, ban all legal guns and let them live in their utopia.
And the best thing is that Brave New Books also has a website. I’ll have to shop for some books…
I’m a proud single issue voter. My issue? The Constitution. ALL of it.
I don’t see what he done wrong at all it is a freedom and I applaud him for that and wish him the best of luck.Proud to be a American.

Pretty much sums up the rank-and-file of the gun control crowd, doesn’t it?
I assume correctly no one was harmed in this bookstore?
Kind of discredits the letter author, but they are probably too dense to recognize that reality.
Nothing wreckless about the Constitution. Gun control kills. Not open carry
