[meta] Thoughts on bad CCWer posts?


After the cluster that was the last bad CCWer post (cavalry draw guy), what is the purpose of those posts other than to have a big circle jerk on /r/CCW? The OPs never talk to the person to get the full story; maybe the back pocket guy legitimately did not know how far his gun was out. No one here benefits from those posts as it is more or less preaching to the choir, and the 'bad CCWer' gets eviscerated by hundreds of people who know nothing about him. I know asking people about their CCW generally goes against the 'Mind your own business' attitude on this sub, but it would be much more educational to have a bit more background on the situation than a single voyeuristic image.Now this could be a case of just ignore post and move on, but 2 of the top 10 posts this week (as of now) are about bad CCWers, so clearly a lot of people on /r/CCW enjoy this kind of content for one reason or another. It would be great if OPs made these popular posts a bit more informative rather than just making fun of a random CCWer. via /r/CCW http://ift.tt/2gP9PCL
