I’m pretty confident if some untrained numbskull breaks into my house with an AK, and given I have the chance to arm myself, it’s gonna be a bad day for them
Makes me think about that person in the Indiana Mall shooting two weeks ago that hit the target something like 8 out of 10 times from ~30 yards or soI’m pretty confident if some untrained numbskull breaks into my house with an AK, and given I have the chance to arm myself, it’s gonna be a bad day for them
He probably trained, it’s like golf or baseball or math, training or practice is everythingMakes me think about that person in the Indiana Mall shooting two weeks ago that hit the target something like 8 out of 10 times from ~30 yards or so
It’s not adrenaline.Maybe, adrenaline is a factor for sure, but that’s why you trainmuscle memory, I don’t even need to look down my sights to hit you at those distances
This is no problem for me, as soon as you endanger me or my family, it’s biblicalincluding your willingness to drop the POS dead where he stands.
That remains to be seen.This is no problem for me, as soon as you endanger me or my family, it’s biblical
I don’t go looking for trouble and don’t want to kill anybody, but, if you break into my house or start shooting at a store and I’m there and armed, your getting killed no two ways about itThat remains to be seen.
Smart people make sure you can’t see them.And the funniest part about it is most the people that break into houses or go to shoot up a place understand before hand they are willing forfeiting their right to live and rolling the dice anyway, it’s the people miles away not being the persons victim that talk about understanding and being tolerant, it’s a fucking joke if you really think about it
Don't own a gun to defend yourself with so that way you're not a good ole boyYep, you’re a good ole boy.
Yes in a situation like that the police should have at least put some kind of hold on his weapons or just confiscated them outright, but even if they did that he could still have broke in with a knife and would play out the same…. I’m just saying I don’t understand this whole let’s think about the person putting us in harms way rights…it makes zero sense to me, but I guess I’m an American through and through^ i'm not clear. are you suggesting that he should not have been able to get a gun?
that is a tragic story. if she had a gun there is a chance that she'd still be alive. but it's not certain.

Right and that’s where there could definitely be some improvements to the laws, his guns should have been taken as soon as he was reported for stalking and threats, atleast a temp hold for him to cool downthe suck thing is that, until he's committed a crime, the police likely won't act.
the same amendment that allows you to own a gun allows him to own a gun.

Why? They didn’t do that when I was targeted for cancelingRight and that’s where there could definitely be some improvements to the laws, his guns should have been taken as soon as he was reported for stalking and threats, atleast a temp hold for him to cool down
But then someone could falsely accuse another to get the guns removed, rendering them vulnerable to a plot.Right and that’s where there could definitely be some improvements to the laws, his guns should have been taken as soon as he was reported for stalking and threats, at least a temp hold for him to cool down
Well there would obviously have to be some proof, in this day is shouldn’t be to hard for a victim to record something or have a text log ect…so let’s just say in legit situations where someone is acting nutty and there is proof of that but still haven’t committed a crime, they confiscate the gunsBut then someone could falsely accuse another to get the guns removed, rendering them vulnerable to a plot.
It's got to be thorough psychological/record vetting before gun purchase, and then a yearly evaluation to renew your license. It makes no sense to have loopholes that allow for removal of weapons by the state on vague assertions by another person.
If it were tough enough it would dissuade the average chump and those not responsible enough, and retain those with the discipline (and mental balance). If someone fails their re-evaluation, or doesn't show up, then the state can remove their weapons.
People already starting to drill itMakes me think about that person in the Indiana Mall shooting two weeks ago that hit the target something like 8 out of 10 times from ~30 yards or so
