Okay, that was a little low. I think I have some passive-aggression for all the 'good-ole-boys' I see riding around here with their bad-ass huntin' duds and confederate flag vanity plates...
I don't know if it's because he's "yellow" in the sense of being cowardly, but, unless he happens to be walking through a particularly bad part of town, I would say that he probably has issues.
I suppose some people carry guns simply because they want to be armed in the very unlikely event that they come across a situation in which a gun could save lives, but I suspect they are unusual.
It seems to me more likely that the person wants to have a sense of power.
Not a reason to outlaw guns, but not a good one for carrying one either.
