Blogger and YouTuber DMarcus Hammond recently asked his Twitter followers for their thoughts on this photo:
I have question, how do you feel seeing this photo??? pic.twitter.com/2ARsV67vXW

Should we be outraged? Scared? Sad?
Because, well, we’re none of those things. And neither are a whole lot of other people, judging by the responses to Hammond’s question:

Hell yeah.
Why doesn’t the baby have a weapon?
— MetricButtload (@monkeyboy100001) August 31, 2020
They couldve at least gave the baby a water gun🙄 But love to see it 🅿️

My overriding feeling is one of revulsion and horror at the fact that the baby doesn’t have at least a little Saturday Night Special or something, how dare they leave him out. https://t.co/n3p5Q3evA5

Heh.
Seriously though, this is one of those things where people on the other side don’t seem to understand how pro-2nd Amendment folks feel about gun ownership. Every committed pro-2Am activist I know (and I know a bunch!) sees that pic and thinks “hell yeah, fam.”

Having the ability to protect home & loved ones is always good thing. Teaching kids to respect firearms, excellent trigger discipline.
Beautiful family.

What a beautiful family.

Empowering. Family, property, and the means to protect them. 👍

I love it because you can tell they’re teaching the kids right. Not pointing in any direction, finger off the trigger, etc.
— C. 🇦🇸 (@Chelsuhhhhh) August 30, 2020
They are exercising their rights but more important they are obviously teaching gun safety as noted by the fingers off the triggers and the barrels pointing down. All good here.

Proud of my fellow Americans exercising their God-given rights.

I feel happy. I feel patriotic. I feel safe. I feel pride in my fellow countrymen.

I feel like that family will be safe in their home.

Wish there were more photos like it. https://t.co/hdmQPJ4pev

Amen to that.
