I just saw a crazy person driving in San Francisco today

My sister and I were coming back from the movies and we saw a middle aged white guy in a military green colored jeep that had a machine gun fastened to the top and stenciled on the front of the jeep was God and country. It was so shocking to see this. I thought this only happened in those states like Texas. I hope this guy is arrested soon. My sister and I both were disturbed by seeing this guy. I'm hoping the police stop him and arrest him.

There are a lot of nuts, even in the middle of big cities.

If you go inland and away from the coastal cities, it's just like Texas.

Bay Area and seeing trucks with gun racks but a Army machine in the city was jarring and chilling to me.

Completely tasteless and very likely to freak people out.

13. I'm still not sure who it is, or why, but at least it's not a crazy person.

I never leave without both my 50. Cal and 30. Cal machine gun replicas on my jeep.

Makes me feel all cozy inside.
