Updated: Because the ad popped up again and I was really wondering if I was crazy.
Sigh . Whoever made this ad is an asshole.
Original post:
So I was watching YouTube and the pre-video ad was for a concealed carry holster. The voice over started like this: “millions of people carry for one reason—they don’t want to be victims of a bully.”
I mean, there are lots of valid reasons why someone would want to own gun or whatever, and I don’t think that’s a discussion we need to have here, but... yeah... I’d kind of worry about the kind of person who carries a gun to protect themselves from bullying. What a weird way to market a product.

I think they found a real strong target market. People who are paranoid and afraid buy far more firearms and firearm accessories than the general public.

Irresponsible, too.
A person that thinks a gun is a solution for a bully is someone I don’t want to have a gun in the first place.

My thoughts exactly.

I’ll second that. As someone who was “that kid,” in elementary and middle school, I saw firsthand how ruthless and relentless bullying can be.

I like the one about the concealed carry holster where the guy pulls a 12g shotgun out of his pants.

My mom was paranoid and afraid. Her neighbors burgalerized her property (no evidence but it was clear who did it), then attempted to rob her in her home (again, not caught but the only reason they didn’t get in was the arrival of the sheriff - they escaped through the woods). One of the two brothers was convicted of stabbing someone to death on their property. The victim was a guest of the other brother.
One of them still lives there, but my mom is not as afraid as she was before. She’s packing heat and knows how to use it!

U gutta admit, a gun is certainly a solution.
It’s just a really bad one

I got one of these. I liked how they are completely concealed and below the waist line, but when pulling up the draw is almost at my nipple, so it’s a bit odd and will take some getting used to.
Being a smaller person (5'6" 138# 29"waist) and having a holster inside the waist of pants is a bit uncomfortable.

The old why baggy close are bad video. Now we have the stipid skinny jean craze. The phrase is get into her pants. Not wear her pants.

Hey man skinny jeans are comfy. And make it easier to run/jump than most jean. I mean you could wear sweat pants, or windpants but then you’d look like a tool.

No. If you want to show the world what you trouser snake and balls look like wear them. They are not comfy. If you go to the gym and lift weights they don’t fit. Baggy boot cut jeans if you can find them anymore are the most comfy. I even did squats in baggy boot cut jeans a few times. Skinny jeans will just split and show the trouser snake and balls to the world if you just think about them. Skinny jeans are great for girls, but not men. The phrase is get into her pants, not wear them!

I plan on carrying a gun to protect me from animals, not bullies.
Shoulder holsters are more comfortable anyway.

Side note: not a fan of appendix carry. Having a loaded gun pointing at my femoral artery and/or junk all the time doesn’t sound appealing in the slightest.

“What a weird way to market [this] product”
For real
This is against everything the responsible-carry/NRA types believe, and you’d think they were the target market.
Those guys (and women) are way into sober firearm behavior and *never* any macho sh*t when it comes to handling.

Not all of them....... Yoga pants are stretchy too, and not everyone should wear them.

But skinny jeans that are actually made for guys aren’t tight there. Just on the legs,

You must be an extremely skinny guy. Yes, they are tight there. If you happen to glance at a leg machine, your legs will not fit in those stupid jeans, and then there’s the cock and balls. Stupid designers have been pushing that stupid skinny jean shit. How the hell can you fit a smart phone, keys, and a wallet in those things? Pretty soon they will be selling purses for men to hold the cell, keys, and wallet.
Bring back the baggy boot cut!

I am skinny. And I really only wear them when I’m skateboarding, which is when I wouldn’t want stuff in my pockets anyway.

That’s why you can wear them. Back in the day we wore baggy jeans.

Looks like a great cell phone holster.
