Another stupid question posed in another inanely created thread.
My answer: It depends.
Another stupid question posed in another inanely created thread.
My answer: It depends.
So why answering another stupid question posed in another inanely created thread?
Why do you answer questions?
I answer questions to provide information that others may look for. Answering questions is also a part of social skills. I answer questions in polite manner to maintain relationships with other members.
Commenting questions this way:
Another stupid question posed in another inanely created thread
has nothing in common with answering them.
Oldish thread, I lost track, what does OP do?
Asks odd questions, oddly. Why? Does that matter?
We have fun anyway, eh?
Best analogy.
No, I do not under visually restricted conditions. Dark. No spectacles. Time constraint.
Proprioception. Tactile. Audible.
Thatâs on the home court. Since I choose my own clothes and equipment, and dress myself, I think that would be analogous to non-visual holstering.
I will not at the away game, except under the same level of necessity as might require visual confirmation of an unobstructed holster. Life is too short and there are too many options. I would find a bush before I would enter a dark public restroom.
It has been demonstrated by a complete lack of moderation and a breakdown of the purpose of this forum that people can ask and answer questions any way they like within limits. I notice that you tend to coddle the OP but want to question my âfree speechâ.
Are you patronizing him or me? He crafts inane threads with off topic questions to trap members into arguments. He has repeatedly used race baiting tactics here and yet, my posting a response is somehow an issue?
Interesting choice of soft targets around here.
AMEN !
I know âthis is Americaâ - everybody can do whatever he/she wants.
Regarding your questionâŠ
This is Another stupid question posed in another inanely created thread.
My answer: It depends.
Perhaps @Mike270 is not mine or yours favorite Member, but OP question was actually pretty good. He shouldnât have changed it at the beginning, but since February 28th the question remained very clear. At least it is not âAnother stupid questionâ
If you want to add some values to this thread, just please explain your original answer.
On what:
Please share your opinion.
Holy cow that was fast lol thanks
Thatâs complete MO here. He poses a question, he gets answers and when he doesnât like the answers, he changes the question. just like you stated. Heâs not cultivating thought, he sows seeds of dissension. Not to mention how he openly disparages Black Americans. But hey, thatâs okay with the moderators too I suppose.
It depends entirely on the situation. And that is really the only answer here. Why? Because if a person here answers his question with a specific parameter, that person gets ridiculed. If a person here answers his question and misspells a word or two or fails to use proper grammar, that person gets ridiculed.
So who really cares what my opinion is? Or who really cares what your opinion is if he sets these inane threads up so that everyone else is wrong?
I know what I would do because I train for it and have for years. I also get paid to train other people on what to do. Itâs what I do as an Instructor. And these discussion forums are probably the very worst place that a person can get advice from lately because they are poorly moderated. USCCA should be ashamed of what has happened to this community.
-Boy would last maybe five minutes in my class.
OK. Iâm guessing you are not happy with questions that seems to be âlow levelâ.
Please understand that not all Members are Instructors, Counselors and maybe even well trained with firearms. USCCA is here to help in such situation.
As a Firearm Instructor, you should know that there is no stupid questions about firearms.
So if you see inane tread or question, please donât state this, because it might be only your opinion and you may make more harm than good.
If you donât want to share your experience (as Instructor you actually could add valuable information) donât do this and also please do not discourage OP from asking questions that he needs to ask in order to be better in his self-defense situations.
And I think â-Boyâ has a name. We should respect that.
Actually, you are misrepresenting my position and I donât appreciate you doing that. Go back (if you care to) and read some of my responses to questions and issues. The subject matter in this thread isnât âlow levelâ, but the poster who parented this thread is. Heâs low level because he is engaging in passive-aggressive behavior. He parents a thread and then flames people if they donât reply with his desired outcome. As much time as you yourself spend on this forum, Iâm very surprised and disappointed in you playing so coy with this person.
Where have I ever written anything contrary to that? FWIW, I have learned a great deal here myself and, have used material from these discussion threads in my courses that I offer.
There are no âStupid questionsâ, I agree. Especially when dealing with people who are coming from a place of subject matter ignorance. Meaning, they donât know better. But, it seems to me that there is a HUGE difference between the average forum member who earnestly comes here to learn and a troll who parents threads about absolutely nothing to do with Firearms Training and education. Again, youâre playing coy with this character in my opinion. He isnât coming here to learn or share. Go back and read his posts disparaging Black Americans. Do you support that kind of behavior here?
I operate from the well water theory. If brackish or poison water flows from a source, it cannot produce clean water. His well is tainted by his own racist posts.
The member in question has a documented history on this forum of disparaging Black Americans and, race-baiting. Period.
I call them the way I see them. Heâs a clown here. But, if he ever did actually ask a valid question without following up with attacking responders, I wouldnât have anything to say.
But, he canât help himself. Iâm surprised he hasnât responded yet. But, heâs probably in âtime outâ and has to wait to come back here and screw up again, and again.
I think you overthink everything.
I donât care who is he, what is his background, how old is he, what is his level of education. I donât care.
If he asked simple question about proper firearm handling at this thread, we should give the answers. It rather should be a good answer, because other Members may look for an advice as well.
If you didnât like his comments about Black Americans, keep that on the proper thread. This one was related to our safety procedures.
Anyway⊠Iâm done posting at this thread, and I apologize all Members for turning discussion away from main topic.
Donât be a dickhead, tell somebody you love them.

Overthinking has saved my skin many for many years @Jerzees. And the only thing that I care about is what crap comes out of his mouth or in his postings. I respect your opinion, I simply donât agree with you in this instance. Donât make this about you and me here.
But, thatâs the beauty of discussion.
Iâm done here too.
Itâs bowl.
I have not read all the other responses but to answer the original question, I never look at the gun or holster while drawing or re-holstering. It goes in via muscle memory just like it get drawn with muscle memory. My eyes remain peeled on the the situation at hand.
ETA: My opinion, if you have to look, you arenât practicing enough.
Itâs always personal preference, but NOT looking what your muzzle or trigger is doing may jeopardize yours and others safety.
It is not about muscle memory, Iâve been seeing too many well trained shooters who make that mistake and muzzle themselves trying to find holster or put the handgun back having piece of garment in holster already.
We practice, to do everything efficiently, fluently and safely. Why use âblind modeâ to risk even single mistake.
