Pro Charlie Kirk rally in my small red town
Made a run to grocery store and seen them (about 40) at one of our busiest intersections. On my
return trip home I planned on driving real slow in the parking lot with some one finger communication
aimed at them. As I started getting close to all the pickups with rifle racks and flags flying , I noticed
a number of them wearing side arms and they are looking straight at me, needless to say I
chickened out doing the finger.
So much BS and virtue-signalling,

.
1. Maybe I'm the crazy one, but if I know there's a political something or other (any POV) happening somewhere, I'll just go a different way to avoid delay and weirdness. So "planning" to do a drive-by flip-off?

2. On one hand, flags on a pickup would be visible at some distance, though I think there's considerable stereotype-hyperbole in that aspect. But are rifle racks really particularly visible from 20 or 40 yards away? My (farmer) Dad's wasn't back when he had a .22 or 12 gauge in his pickup truck(50 or 60 years ago). BS stereotype.
3. Open carry being visible from 20 or 40 yards away? Sounds doubtful to me, though I'm not speculating from experience.
4. "(L)ooking straight at me"? Beyond ordinary situational awareness, i.e. noticing an approaching vehicle, this is probably 80%-90% paranoid virtue-signaling for
DUmp Cred.
