    I like to shoot far off cans, bottles, and targets out in the country. I’ve never shot an animal (that I know of) or a person (pretty confident about that one) and if there was some rabble-rousing going on and I was for some reason armed and loaded I don’t have the mental capacity nor the confidence to decide who lives and dies. Just because I own guns doesn’t mean I’m your defender. You should go buy a gun and become the justice decider you describe. Become the change you want to see.

    What is happening is abhorrent. Morons with guns aren’t the answer.

      Not possible in my country. I just sometimes have the feeling that americans accept more shit from their government and law enforcement BECAUSE they have loads of weapons and it gives this wrong sense of security, that you are able to rise up against authority if push comes to shove. Only that it will never be quite bad enough to risk your own life. And i understand that. Still sad to see.
