Unarmed Civilians

When you come out from a week at the National Matches you're back in the general population at the first gas stop. People, very casually dressed, with many tattoos, (like circus performers), are walking around with NO GUNS! Where are these folks rifles? Where's their gear? What kind of sunblock have they been using that leaves them so pale? We've seen the fat man, the bearded lady, the midget on a bicycle, and the amazing pierced girl so far.
I guess I prefer gun people, above all other cultures.

Update:  Having a little Culture shock back home in Texas.  Very strange to not take a rifle and gear everywhere I go.
