Re: Guns
I’m not a gun owner but my dad is as well as several of my family members are gun owners and I work with Veterans.
When people say they want to get a gun, do they intend on actually getting properly trained on it? Do they know what kind of gun? Do they understand that there are hundreds of different types, each works differently. Some have a significant recoil. Do they understand how loud a gun is? Do they understand that anyone coming after them with guns are likely more trained in how to use them than they do, and can possibly tell they you have no idea what you are doing? Do you want to look like the rich idiots in Missouri who were pointing their guns at the BLM and clearly had no idea how to operate those guns.
I keep hearing people talk about buying a gun like it is a simple fix. Many times the gun ends up being used on the owner or the owner hurts a loved one. It isn’t a quick fix for safety if you don’t take the time and research to understand what you are buying.
We don’t have a gun because 1. I’m too jumpy and 2. Both my husband and I have had suicidal tendencies and it is just best for us to not have one in the house.
