The internet is one large conspiracy corpus. Everything over the internet tends to follow the dynamics of a snowball effect. And once you’ve become a part of the whole conspiracy theory mumbo jumbo, escaping it becomes close to impossible.
The probability of jumping from one topic to another increases two folds. Nonetheless, all of this provocation of thoughts inevitably flames an endless argument.
So was the case in this student’s pro-gun graduation photo. A senior at the University of Tennessee made waves over the internet after she uploaded her graduation photo. The 22-year-old student, Benna Spencer’s photo was labeled as ‘controversial’ by twitter-azis.

I’m 100% pro-gun but brandishing a firearm for a photo shoot or showing it off to try and look cool is just stupid. They are tools. Why brag about carrying a gun?

Because I’m proud of my second amendment right and I want to empower other women! Absolutely they are tools but I will always brag about being able to carry a gun to protect myself, my friends and my family!

Young white women are privileged enough that they can brag about carrying a gun on social media and are lauded as patriots. Whereas, the police regularly shoots black people for carrying objects that could be constructed as a gun.
I don't know anything about Brenna Spencer and don't care if she wears a "Women for Trump" t-shirt while strapped with a gun. What bothers me is the reflexive racism that allows people to see Spencer as a "patriot" but to see an armed black woman or man as a criminal threat. https://t.co/cgw25KhgIO

When I speak of gun sense, it's not to get rid of guns. It's to find a way to stop people from being reckless with guns. Like doing something that's illegal (aka what's happening in this picture) would lead to charges that would curb/stop this behavior. https://t.co/YVhevtjFYB

This is what REAL feminism looks like. Strong, smart, confident, and armed
Well done Brenna. You are what @TPUSA is all about
Keep fighting https://t.co/1gQIdEsW4C

Tennessee college senior Brenna Spencer defends posing for graduation picture with gun in her waistband: “I think it’s really important to empower people to show that you should be allowed to protect yourself. Your rights don’t stop at a college campus.” @foxandfriends pic.twitter.com/kDU5fb4VDX

Do you think it was appropriate for Benna to pose with a handgun in her pants? Let us know in the comments below.
