    The folks there appear to be a very pro-gun group of folks - it seems like a good number of people brings guns to work (leaving them in their cars of course). The work looks real interesting, too. :)

      Of the nine people in our section, me and one other guy had guns. At the new job, I'd say it's closer to 50% have guns.

        That should make code reviews rather politer than normal.

        We have the upper hand on the Indian contingent because none of them have guns. :)

                  I admit my prejudice, that was my first thought. I blame watching too many western films in childhood for that. And some contemporary YouTube videos. :)

                                just out of curiosity, how are you leaving your guns in your cars? aren't you worried about it getting stolen? here's it's a crime to leave your gun in a non secure environment (which is why mine is in a secure location at home when i'm not shooting it)

                                  A polite society has no need to be armed. :)

                                    The folks there appear to be a very pro-gun group of folks - it seems like a good number of people brings guns to work (leaving them in their cars of course). The work looks real interesting, too. :)

                                    So you're taking the place of someone who couldn't sprint to his car as fast as the others?

                                      Apparently so. Actually, the guy was Indian, so he probably wasn't armed. :)

                                        Probably Nevada or Montana if I were to guess. I know the state I am in is pretty gun friendly. The problem is convincing the girlfriend to let me drop $5k for a 0.50 rifle.

                                          just out of curiosity, how are you leaving your guns in your cars? aren't you worried about it getting stolen? here's it's a crime to leave your gun in a non secure environment (which is why mine is in a secure location at home when i'm not shooting it)

                                          How is a locked car not a secure environment?
