Here in Louisiana, that is a common site. As a kid, it was rare to walk into a friend's house and not see a gun rack on the living room wall full of guns. Sean is one of us.

However, many fans are resonating with Strickland and are appreciating the fact that he has guns to protect himself. Even though the controversies, Strickland is one of the most loved fighters on the UFC roster.
