#gun owners
So I guess I have to get a gun?
I’m terrified of guns. Petrified. For a person who already suffers daily from death anxiety, the idea of having a gun in my own home, USED TO BE unthinkable.
I felt a shift in my perspective today. Absolutely nothing is going to change in this country. If because of this Texas elementary school shooting, things do finally change, then thank fucking God. But I’m not holding my breath. And until something changes, how can I not arm myself in this wildly fucked up country? At the very least, I know that I’ll ALWAYS be the good guy with the gun, I’d never ever use to it hurt someone unless I had no other choice.
Do any of you guys own guns for personal or home protection? I would honestly love some perspectives and feedback because I don’t know how I could sleep tonight, even if I tried.
