Open carry tragedy

Ironic thing is once, a long time ago, I did feel bad about something I said to him. Or maybe how he took it I don’t recall. I PM’ed him and apologized. He never replied and he’s been a prick ever since. And I do go out of my way to try to be nice to him even though I think he’s a pretentious ass. Oh well, my troll game is expert level too.

I had him on ignore for a long time and then decided to unignore him and just avoid what I didn’t agree with, but it turns out I’m not cut from that cloth, so back on ignore it is.

BassBob did not mention any * Color Code * , you subjectively made the leap he was paraphrasing Cooper .

But Bass Bob implied that my quote of Cooper was wrong. My whole reference was never whether or not the color code is valid or not valid or whether it's right or it's wrong. My reference to Cooper was because anchor rate said I'm in Cooper orange and I pointed out that he wasn't.

And I backed up my statement with two videos of Cooper sayings explicitly that oranges you have identified a specific threat and you're telling yourself I may have to shoot that guy (that is a direct quote by the way) today

BassBob's origonal observations were as worthy of reading as anyone's postings .

Internet of themselves yes but when he was contending that I was quoting Cooper wrong I had every right to prove that I wasn't

Anchorite did invoke Cooper . I confess l would have to dig out my Principles of Personal Defense to do a word for word proofreading .

Or you can go watch the two videos that I link to and you can hear Jeff Cooper explicitly state that condition orange is awareness of a specific threat and you are telling yourself I may have to shoot that specific person today

let it go brother. The first rule of when you find yourself in a hole is stop digging.

According to Cooper, Orange is you've identified a specific threat and you're telling yourself I may have to shoot that person today.

So do you walk around planning to shoot specific people all day long?

Out of curiosity, was the second sentence in this post necessary? You might have just identified a potential misinterpretation of a third party’s (Cooper’s) “philosophy of life.”

A "philosophy of life" refers to a person's overall way of thinking and approaching life, including their beliefs, values, and how they choose to live.

Well judging by the explosion that that post caused I certainly would have done it differently given the opportunity.

I'm not sure how you define necessary but no it probably wasn't.

I'm sure I could have expressed that the poster had an incorrect understanding of the Cooper color code without asking that question
