Hardware Store, clothing store, department store, and grocery store and nothing happened. The only difference was that, today, the man was openly armed instead of carrying concealed.
I don't find it ironic at all. Bullies only target the weak (or those who appear to be weak). Picking on a small woman with a prosthetic leg, and asking her to hide the fact that she is not defenseless, makes perfect sense. Plus, it gives the mouth-breather greeter/manager something to brag about to her other 'accomplished' peers.
One of these days, Claire Wolfe's clock will advance out of the awkward phase...for all who target the weak or attempt to subjugate the free.
Jay - I thought for sure if anyone was going to have an issue it'd be me, considering I carried a big gun on a college campus in the middle of the day on a weekend....into a bar.
Also, I agree with Newbius. Many anti's will confront gunnies as a way to puff themselves up so they'll feel better about their own insecurities and shortcomings.
A tiny librarian with a prosthetic is an easy mark for such bullies. In my experience many anti's ARE bullies.

OH MY GOD!!!
You buy groceries?
:-) Good!!!
Excellent!
We still need to do lunch! A nice boring lunch!
Glad it was a non event. I always picture that point and scream scene from Invasion of the Body Snatchers.
How ironic is it that the tiny librarian appears to be the only one who encounters a problem?
