Do you remember the part of the story where nobody cared about the shirt? It’s possible people cared but didn’t say anything because they didn’t want to cause a conflict. The same is true of a gun. You’re allowed to carry a gun and people are allowed to disagree but they are not allowed to attack you for it. Not without consequences anyway.
That’s kind of how humans work. Everyone has all sorts of disparate opinions not aligning directly to party lines. I mostly follow left wing politics except where it comes to guns because for some reason that’s right wing. So many beliefs and opinions cannot be properly expressed by a political spectrum but by god we’ll do it anyway.
It makes me remember that video of the guy putting every different shaped piece into the square. https://youtu.be/Nz8ssH7LiB0
