For what it’s worth, AK’s are Russian

That I actually did know, but thank you for the context!

Just that I called it open carry when I meant openly, as in its totally normalized that a disco bouncer has a fucking assault rifle

I remember after 9/11 I took a flight out of Minneapolis and there were security/police/whatever with automatic rifles. Pretty surprising as I'd never seen anything like that in the US.

I’m from the US and it freaks me out all the damn time. If it’s supposed me feel any safer, it doesn’t — AT ALL!
