I understand the analogy but have never liked the general application of the term sheep, especially when it gets associated with carry status. I was always told to never judge a book by its cover and I would suggest the same consideration applies to carry status.

To borrow a phrase from a favorite author "There are no dangerous weapons; there are only dangerous men". People like this are never "sheep" no matter what their personal choices about firearms are. Generalizations can lead to sloppy thinking and sometimes critical mistakes.
