On the evening of January 24, three sheriff’s deputies in Rankin County, Mississippi, received a group text message from another deputy on the same shift: “Are y’all available for a mission?”
What sort of strategy have you discussed with your daughter about her safety and wellbeing? if you and her have a gun aversion, does she train in martial arts, or are you just taking a leap of faith because the chance of you or her becoming a victim doesn’t seem plausible to you? i want to understand if you and her truly feel that comfortable and safe. if so, hey, i pray that you never suffer a traumatic experience…to me your statement just seems like she was handed a seat belt and was like ‘im not gonna put my seatbelt on, its uncomfortable’ . i say this because i was a raised in a bar and i never saw a woman win a fight with a man hand to hand. Lastly, some of us live in shit holes and can’t leave. but we can make decisions that lead to us going home at night, carrying concealed is one of those methods, and i am very liberal. protection is not GOP exclusive. It’s just tainted by them.
Wearing a gun may give you some protection, but it also brings you a false sense of security and introduces countless new risks while negleting the source of the issue. If you’re actually living somewhere, where it’s “normal” to wear guns it’s a far better idea to just relocate. But then, many folks are just scared and don’t actually gain any increased safety from wearing a gun.
It’s a very real problem. getting a ccw is easier than getting a drivers license. depending on the state, not every place is the same. Living in Rhode Island? yeah having a gun felt passe. Here in Florida. The place is a 39 ring circus with no one orchestrating the show and crime solve rates are laughable at best. additionally. some towns, like mine. our police go home at 6pm…like wtf…our 911 goes to the ‘central’ city after hours which means police arrival times range between 40mins-1:30mins…up north they were sub 10mins tops and 24/7 police shifts. so its not lost on me, i just cant afford to live in a place like that anymore, sadly.
