and they all are non confrontational and I have never heard one say that he wished to blow someone away.

I often enjoyed hanging out in gun stores in the Tampa Bay area when I lived there. The customers who shopped while I was in the stores were usually interested in hunting or target shooting or buying a firearm for home defense. Some were interested in buying a firearm for concealed carry. None ever expressed any interest in being a vigilante.

I rarely watch videos on Youtube that deal with firearms. A lot of idiots with little knowledge of any given subject love to post on a large range of topics and I refuse to waste my time watching them. I personally have never met a person who was experienced with firearms who posted a video.

Our experiences differ considerably.
