Where I live, some anti 2A fanatic would probably shoot me if I wore that shirt in public. Ironic, isn't it?
Nice shirt, but, it falls into my knowledge is power, and I try to not give anyone information about me. No Firearm hats/shirts/jackets/bumper stickers, No protected by Smith and Wesson house signs, no baby on board stickers, no wife, 3 kids and a dog bumper stickers, no open carry, etc etc……
Yep i understand exactly the reasoning. My problem is that while I would be trying to hope, probably in vain, the huge ogre, or his brain washed minions see, understand, and are given food thought on the subject, In hopes of change, malaria laden predator mosquitoes notice my family and proceeds to find, break in and kill them because I was wearing a billboard telling them where to find 2A blood as it were.Yes I understand where you’re coming from to a certain point.
Just remember it’s a statement also in a state like mine where our gun rights are being taken away from our states government.

I do not see enough benefits in a billboard tshirt to counter the negatives. I do not see it convincing liberals to vote with us, the only true way for change. More likely than not it will make them even more wary of us. Just my opinion. What made the recent advancements in our voters was not things we did , but instead results from thier own choices making the country more dangerous. That where we will find the change we need.
I understand your position entirely, just do not think it will do what you hope. Difference of opinion on any possible effectiveness. Hope it works for ya. I will stick to my plan of not telling every predator in the area I have firearms in my home.First off I live in one of those liberal run states. I also live in a county that has stood up to the governor saying that what he is doing is wrong and will not in force unconstitutional laws. If we don’t stand up to the liberal agenda that wants to strip us from the tyranny they impose then our constitution is worthless. Also my shirt falls under the 1st amendment.
No matter where we go or do or say will always have consequences tied up to it. I drive a ‘15 Toyota Prius and people judge all the time. I live in Illinois and people snicker about that. I like going to the range and people will snicker. No matter what people will judge or snicker about anything out there. Life is too short to let anyone get under my skin anymore.I said this before a bunch of times.
I don't wear clothes with logos on them of any kind.
I seem to be that guy.
I tell this story every time this topic comes up.
I worked in the sheet metal fabrication shop. The shop floor about the size of a football field and they didn't really heat it in the winter.
So in the winter I wore a hoodie to work with the sleeves cut off ( no long sleeves to get caught in the machinery).
In that shop my clothes lasted about 6 weeks before they were shredded and covered with oil and basically worthless. So, I bought all my clothes at a by the pound place.
That particular hoodie had a Dallas Cowboys logo on it. There was a guy that worked in the brake press area which was almost half a block away from where I worked. But every time he went to the bathroom he came all the way down to the bathroom in my area and found a reason to walk by my machine and yell "Cowboys Suck"!!!!
In another incident I went jogging one day in a CU Hoodie. Some crazy woman followed me around the park talking to me about the Colorado Univerity Buffaloes and Ralphie the mascot and a bunch of things that I wanted nothing to do with.
I never just wear a t-shirt A
anywhere but at the gym and when I do it's a plain black T-shirt and a plain black hoodie and a plain black hat.
Ying/Yang effect. Life is full of it.Here is one unfortunate reality: the wearer will draw as many scowls as smiles.
I do carry and have a CCL in the the wonderful state of Illinoiswear it as you wish, but do carry when you do.. Insurance is the best policy.

I believe the "effect" you made reference to is yin yang.Ying/Yang
