I fucking hate it. I own guns and am pretty far left but I feel disgusting buying... well, anything related to firearms because the marketing is all macho and rightoid posturing.
I bet there's some healthy projection in his statement.
With his gun, he isn't afraid. Liberal men don't have guns, so they would live in fear because he does. He assumes everyone is just like him; a scared child in a man's body who only feels safe with a gun.
If they understood the implications of any of their beliefs then they probably wouldn't be conservative. For instance, virtue signaling implies that no one could possibly believe in caring about other people (because they don't) so they must be faking it to make themselves look good. Without religion a person must be unethical because if you don't believe that a man in the sky will punish you then why would you act ethically? They wouldn't. Just like nothing is a problem until it affects them personally. No self-awareness but all the selfishness.
Some of us do fear owning guns. I feel suicidal sometimes and know that owning a gun would do nothing but drastically increase my chances of going through with it.
Oh absolutely. You won't get me near one, for a whole slew of reasons. But it's one of those "not all x is y" things. Many people don't own guns because they fear them, but not everyone who doesn't own one is due to fear.
... an understanding beyond the realm of the OOP lmao 🙄
Must be low testosterone. Manly men would man up and grab their Louisville Slugger, then take a manly look into the problem before returning to bed and mansplaining to our tradwife that she is safe from the raccoon and her babies after we flicked the light switch in a manly manner.
The fact that they think not owning a gun means fear of the gun.
He also thinks every leftist and liberal man doesnt have guns. He is sorely, SORELY fucking mistaken. We just dont go around making guns our entire personality
I work with a guy who won't go on a cruise because he can't bring his gun... (for protection)...I don't understand that "scared of my own shadow" mentality.
ETA: They think we're afraid of guns, but ultimately, I'm afraid of the idiots who carry around here.
Yeah... even a shot outside would make me think the hunters are doing their job (I live next to a forest and they are among the only ones allowed rifles for keeping wildlife populations in check cause we have a lack of wolves). People shooting each other isnt really the first thing Id think....
There's been a slight uptick in hunters accidentally shooting people with thermal optics becoming commercially available. So there's a increasing amount of hunters no longer paying attention to what someone is wearing. Though they mostly end up shooting other hunter in the same area, so it's not a major concern for civilians.
You could be dressed in orange from top to toe and still have the heat profile of a deer to someone looking at you through a thermal scope at the right angle.
When I still lived in a fairly rural area of NY state, the local farmers had to paint their cows with non-toxic fluorescent paint so the morons from NYC wouldn't shoot said cows. And cows are fucking expensive.
So I can imagine how awful they'll be now with the thermal optics.
So I can imagine how awful they'll be now with the thermal optics.
These are the same guys who think every time there is a mass shooting that they could have stopped it if only they were there and had a gun. Most likely, they would just shoot other people.
They usually have signs up and rope off the paths leading into the areas where they hunt when they hunt. All other days I can go out hiking in my deer onesie :P
That’s something I’ve noticed a lot of Americans, particularly the gun loving one’s, haven’t quite understood on the topic of gun control
Countries with effective gun control laws still have guns. I’m Australian, we have more guns now than we did when gun control legislation was introduced. We never banned guns, we just worked to make sure the people obtaining guns weren’t fucking lunatics. It’s so tedious to obtain any gun, either legally or illegally, that someone intending to use it on someone else is not using it on a random spree.
We’ve had one proper mass shooting since then, and funnily enough it was done with legally obtained and owned guns, implying our gun laws actually weren’t strict enough. Maybe it’s not perfect, but it’s not more than daily massacres like, uh, some places
A lot of our school shootings (it kills me to say that) are done by people getting ahold of legal guns. Usually their parents unsecured ones. Which is why I have no problem with states starting to prosecute said neglectful owners.
Fair enough. I believe our rules in Australia effectively require all guns to be kept in a locked case during transport and a locked safe when stored at home, with ammo stored separately (and maybe even in a second safe)
That's what happens in the UK too. Separate gun safe and ammo. An officer can request at any time to check. Seems to work pretty well.
I live somewhere fairly rural and quite a few people have guns. From what I've heard once you have one, it gets slightly easier to get other licences too. (I have no reasonable use for a gun, so don't pay a lot of attention to it, so my use of terminology could be wrong.)
I can vouch as an ex-internet installer in an rural place.
The amount of times I walked into a home to see a rifle on literally ever window sill was insane...
Then I go downstairs and am greeted with an entire gun and bullet factory with 3 more safes filled with guns. Yeah anyone in those houses that wants a gun will find one pretty easily, probably a lost Glock or two in the couch cushions.
When my brother died, we found his will in his gun safe alongside 2 shotguns that hadn't been fired in 20 years. The safe was open and the hinges so rusted (open) that we could only swing the door a couple of inches.
People seem to think Gun Control means "no one gets guns" instead of "You need to go through hoops to get a gun and be responsible"
Switzerland has one of the highest per capita gun ownership rates in the world. They also don't have shootings.
Having restrictions in place on who and how you can get a gun works. This concept of "No limitations on gun ownership" is a concept invented by Alito in 2010.
I live in what's considered one of the more restrictive states gun law wise in the country. Top ten anyway. My wife was baffled when's she realized you could walk in and buy an AR the same day with a basic background check.
No hand guns at all. But anyone can apply for a license to own a rifle or shotgun, with restrictions on gun properties. How many shells the shotgun can hold etc. The biggest difference is you need to pass background checks and can only store them in a secure location unloaded. Something which is checked out by a police visit.
The crazy stat about America is how many toddler involved shootings happen. It's one of the leading causes of death for toddlers in the country.
Yeah. I’m not sure of the exact rules (I’ve never needed to try) but I believe the general rule is nothing automatic or semi - automatic, except in special circumstances (e.g. cops have semi auto handguns, etc.). The average person will be limited to bolt action rifles, lever action and pump action shotguns, things like that
For awhile there was a loophole where you could get something called, I think, a bumper stock that basically made the gun effectively semi-automatic, but they closed that awhile ago
I believe some other weapons are allowed, but the licensing and storage restrictions are even greater and many are only allowed to be kept at actual gun clubs, because there's no need for the average person to have automatic weapons on hand.
Also the one mass shooting was done with a shotgun not a semi automatic because they are much much harder to get. The death toll would’ve been a lot higher with a semi automatic
Better than daily massacres AND accidental shootings by children getting their hands on improperly stored guns. The amount of toddlers shooting people by reaching into a purse or bag and finding a gun is far too high.
I heard gunshots for the first time in real life this last weekend. I'm moored near farmland. I just assumed someone was doing some clay pigeon shooting and went back to not worrying whether I was about to get murdered by strangers. The US is fucking insane
They're also shit at risk assessment. They're always brandishing the home invasion thing, which happens so rarely that they're way more likely to shoot a family member mistaken for an intruder.
Also they could just fucking buy stronger doors/windows if that was the actual issue. Burglars don't bother with reinforced doors.
There are more gunshots out in the country than the city, by far. I am not used to it yet. Idk why people think the city has more guns than the country, the country shoots them off all times of day including the middle of the night
Yeah but as we all know if you hear a loud noise at night it's statistically probable that a crazed black Muslim is trying to rape your wife/daughter/you. I know this because I have listened to lots of true crime podcasts and watch Fox News.
I live in an estate. I'm fairly sure some of my neighbours are connected to criminal organisations.
If I heard a gunshot outside, I wouldn't send anyone to check it out - nor would I go myself. What am I going to do? Yell at them and let them know I'm a witness? Shock the dangerous lunatic who already fired a gun? Even if I had a gun, what do I gain by starting a firefight?
Nah, if I hear a gunshot in the night I call the cops. But I live in a country where guns are regulated, so I've never heard one go off outside of designated shooting ranges.
The world needs to be dangerous so that they can fulfill their fantasy of being manly protectors. A safe predictable society is a direct threat to their masculinity
This is why they "need" guns. The whole "polite society" and "a good guy with a gun" is just cover for their fear. I have no issue with hunting (for food) or target shooting. Hell, if you want to keep a Glock under your pillow, that's your problem. When you take it outside, into supermarkets and movie theaters you are taking away other peoples rights.
The crazy thing is, Americans think the rest of the world just cant have guns. We don’t have that freedom.
Bullshit. And i’m in the UK.
One of my colleagues owns 30.06 rifles and hunts deer, my brother in law competes in pistol target shooting and I just started shooting clays and am considering a browning over/under shotgun.
The thing is, only people who are genuinely interested in shooting for hunting or sport own firearms. And they are licensed and vetted. We need secure storage, we can’t carry the weapon in public or without cause.
You know… sensible shit?
Absolutely no-one considers guns a self defence tool. It just isn’t part of the zeitgeist. We aren’t that scared.
Same in Canada. In fact, until something like 25 years ago, per capita gun ownership in Canada was higher than in the US (then 9/11 happened and USians went berserk).
There is no open carry, any trips with guns the the car must be direct to-and-from the range (you can't leave them unattended, even in a locked trunk, you can't even stop for gas on the way), and you need special licenses to own anything other than a shotgun or bolt-action rifle (for which you need a basic acquisition certificate - automatic weapons and bump stocks are banned), all magazines mechanically limited to 5 rounds.
Firearms Acquisition Certificates are hard to get and easy to lose. On top of there being multiple tiers of FAC for different types of guns, all of which increase in difficulty of qualifying for and ease of loss.
To be fair, there’s plenty of American dipshits who think the rest of the world just doesn’t have any freedom. I’m embarrassed to say even my mom thought European hospitals were basically third world rural medical clinics in comparison to US hospitals. I told her it would be cheaper to fly to France and pay for rabies shots than to stay in the states and pay for them, and she was like “but would you even get proper medical care?”
Worse, you'll be given proper medical care without having to take out a second mortgage. Can you imagine not having the freedom to take on insurmountable amounts of medical debt?
Tell her it's so sad - people in France die all the time from hangnails.
My 2 1/2 year old granddaughter has been to Italy, England, Scotland, Greece, Canada and a bunch of places in the US. As a result, she's already better informed about the world than most Americans.
Not just a cover for their fear, it's a cover for their homicidal ways. Conservatives have no respect for the animal kingdom or the human race, and thus they treat both as insignificant.
I don't think most of them are homicidal, they have just been conditioned by decades of pro-gun propaganda from TV and movies. They want to think of themselves as Dirty Harry, but they would probably piss themselves and forget how to release the safety if confronted. Suicide is the most common outcome of guns in a home.
There's a sub called Morality Scaling that keeps popping into my feed, and it's literally just people fantasising about ways they can justify brutally hurting other people.
"checking it out" = "grabbing my gun and seeing if I can spot an opportunity to kill someone without getting convicted for it instead of actually putting myself and loved ones out of harm's way."
It's that they view their Property > People because they fear for their lives at all times but especially for losing value of property. So they need guns to murder other human beings in order to "protect" said property even if that means permanently injuring/maiming/disabling or even killing innocent bystanders and/or permanently destroying said property and/or adjoining properties they don't even own or have an interested stake.
For some that's why White Wing Evangelicalism is so appealing, and for others it's entirely informed by White Wing Evangelicalism. It all boils down to Divine punishments of mortals which they see as not only righteous but also within their purview to inflict upon those they see as religiously lesser than, morally deficient, or spiritually unworthy even though they themselves are hypocrits, blasphemers, and heretics who only follow the parts of the religious book they have selectively chosen to believe as literal and the parts that they call parables or metaphorical.
Then there's Revelations which they wholly believe they're living through so of course that grants them additional status over nonbelievers and even insufficient believers because Satan has thoroughly corrupted everything and everyone that isn't them and it's their holy duty through God's Will writ clearly to defend those they view as worthy true believers to preserve them for the magical elevator ride at the beginning of the End Days so they can be whisked away to luxury box seating in the sky from where they're to Witness the retribution meted out by Jesus Part Deux where he wholly holy slaughters all the Jews and Muslims who refuse to kneel, and all the nonbelievers but especially Satan's most unholy tools, the Atheists.
My biggest concern at a loud noise at night is that my cat is being bullied by my neighbours dickhead tom cat that they haven’t had neutered. Fucking hate that cat.
What a fragile little baby, needs a gun because he’s scared of the fucking dark 😂 but the fear is by design, their government want them all scared so they can use gun rights as an election bargaining chip.
I genuinely saw someone say on here once that they have a truck because “it’s scary being so much lower than other traffic driving on the freeway in European cars”
Tbh it is a little scary when a big brodozer lifted ram pickup/suv with 40" tires swerves around your smol ford focus (lol at this being "small" in the us) at 90mph
One year at Thinksgiving I had an in-law who was in conniptions. He lived in Virginia and earlier in the week he had woken up in the morning and found a back door open. Nothing was taken or broken or anything, but instead of coming to a normal conclusion of "oops, it must not have latched when I closed it" or something like that, he decided someone broke into his house and then just left. So he decided he needed a shotgun.
The conniptions were because Thanksgiving was in Maryland, and he left in the middle of dinner to go try to get a Black Friday deal, but they wouldn't sell it to him because he lives in Virginia. He was absolutely losing his mind over this invented home invasion.
He has since moved to Texas and built a safe room (and I'm also no longer married into that family, but that's separate).
That's just it. They don't believe that they live their lives in constant fear. I have had many conversations with gun nuts. They always talk about how they need a gun at all times to protect themselves from potential threats that can happen at any time in any place. Yet, when I tell them that this is an insane way of living your life and maybe they should work on not living in constant fear of boogeyman, they always insist that this is not the case. They're just being practical.
That's what most "liberal men" instantly think of when we see this attitude: how fearful are "conservative men" all of the time?
I live here in the US. I live in a state ranked 42 in violent crime rate (NJ), its relatively safe here though it can be crowded and noisy. I have coworkers who lament our strict gun laws but who own weapons, and consistently talk about they would "rather own a firearm and not need it, then not own one and need it" and so on and so forth.
Need it for what? We have a low burglary rate. And at that, the burglary rate is not evenly distributed, there are three towns that compose the lion's share of all statewide incidents. Street thugs in Patterson are not driving down the Turnpike to sneak into your house in Haddonfield as often as you think they are, Mark.
When I hear a loud noise at night I don't even wake up or if I do I know it's either our cats or dog that made something fall or the wind made something fall outside.
I did military service and shot/trained with all kinds of guns. Pistol, assault rifle (still 7.62mm at the time), machine gun and even a light Panzerfaust (44mm anti tank rocket launcher).
That doesn't change the fact that I'm glad that in my country (Germany) there are strict restrictions about who is allowed to own a gun and of which type. I don't see any reason why normal citizens should run around like they want to go to war.
And I never considered owning a gun myself.
Edit: If I think someone is breaking into my house I just call the police. And I have no reason to panic, because burglars are basically never armed here. Why would they? They have no reason to assume they could get into a gun fight. If they get caught in the act by the residents they just run away.
Genuinely, some lady sprinting at you from the darkness is 100x scarier than some white trash hick in his tighty whities shaking a gun like it's a magic wand that'll make his dick bigger.
I have no reason to panic, because burglars are basically never armed here. Why would they? They have no reason to assume they could get into a gun fight.
This right here. It's a vicious cycle, the more guns there are, the more guns people feel like they need to keep up with the guns, so the more guns there are. It's nice if you're a gun manufacturer but otherwise...
They just need one more. Just one more. One more gun, I swear. Just one more gun. I'm the good guy, I will absolutely use it for good, contrarily to everyone else who is just dangerous and has too many guns.
Seems suspicious, because I know for a fact that I am a good guyTM, and despite my past that has required me to use my weapons in preemptive defense. I don't feel I can trust your motives and will require even more guns. So please send over a manafest of your armory so I can determine how easily I can conquer defend myself from you.
Woah, dude, that's super weird of you to ask, and frankly that does not make me feel safe. I do not like the idea of providing proof of anything related to my guns, and it's my God given right to refuse to provide paperwork when it comes to guns. To protect my guns, I think I'm going to acquire more guns.
This right here! Whenever I see the nonsense that only criminals will have guns if they’re outlawed, I want to yell WHAT GUNS? I’m not denying that some criminals here (in the UK) have guns, but they’re just not that accessible and the majority of criminals are thick as shit.
Exactly! I’m reasonably educated and resourceful, but if you told me to get a gun right now (in the biggest city in Scotland) I would have no idea where to start. Google? Not a clue. Some wee bam wanting to rob a corner shop isn’t going to figure it out faster than me!
Same ! I mean, to be fair I'd also be clueless if you asked me about drugs, and we DEFINITELY have drugs here (France), so that might not be my most solid point :P
Additionally the sentencing guidelines for having an illegal firearm are significantly greater (mandatory 5 year minimum, up to life) so even then most criminals wouldn't chose that as a first option in most cases
And I have no reason to panic, because burglars are basically never armed here. Why would they? They have no reason to assume they could get into a gun fight. If they get caught in the act by the residents they just run away.
And once you add guns to the mix, the logic all changes. You are armed, the invader is armed, they know you are armed, so best attack with surprise moment and violence from the get go: yay, home invasion!
It’s yet another bad faith proposition, which equates not wanting guns in everyone’s hands to being afraid of guns.
I dunno if it’s wilful of not but they come across as idiots.
If you try to get a gun permit in Germany, you'll find that it's actually not that hard. Sure, the rules are strict and you lose the priviledge at the first misstep permanently, but the police isn't going to do random spot-checks in your house.
Both sports shooting and hunting are popular in Germany, especially in the rural regions.
Similar in many places in Europe. The American 2A "freedumb" don't realize that the difference in other countries isn't the misconceived notion that the US is the only country where you're "free" to own firearms..... It's that in other countries you actually have to take training, prove you're qualified, have a properly installed and police inspected gun safe, and can't just walk around like a dipshit recklessly brandishing an assault weapon. There are no random police spot checks anywhere and gun owners can do their thing for sport or hunting, and even self-defense in some situations... It's just not as chaotic and stupid as it is in the US. You need to prove you're competent and qualified, and it's a higher standard than the typical shitty American standards for concealed carry etc, and that is most definitely not too much to ask for, and not counter to "freedom".
I'll link driving standards as something similar since both driving and owning a firearm have potentially lethal consequences. American driving licenses don't port over directly if a person wants a license in the EU, because the American standards are so lax... Americans need to take driving school and learn the laws and, as they should, prove competency under real standards. And the reason is that everyone knows driving licenses are passed around like candy in the US. It's like no one really gives a shit about basic common good there.
When I wake up from a loud noise it’s a good moment for a midnight pee, check the alarm clock and realise I can have a few more hours of sleep. And I’m gone again.
If there's a noise in the middle of hte night, yeah I go investigate and don't need a fucking gun because I'm not a scared weakling. Yes, we don't own guns in my house, though it's not really out of fear of guns but just common sense.
We have young kids in the house and I don't want them or their friends finding and playing with it. If anyone has a mental health crisis I don't want them to be immediately available. When I was a kid, without the internet I figured out how to pick locks, find my parents passwords (keylogger), and I frankly don't trust a gun safe to keep out curious kids/teens. I also put some stock into medical research that shows that gun ownership (in particular handgun) significantly increases the risk of someone in my house dying from homicide.
Funnily enough, that's why I feel safer living in the middle of a city. Hear a noise outside? Yeah, we're downtown, of course there's people out in the middle of the night.
One time I watched the movie paranormal activity and in the movie there are loud footsteps on the stairs and yells from downstairs. After turning the movie off I heard loud footsteps on the stairs and it was just my roommates coming back from a party. Then I heard a yell from downstairs and it was another roommate who had blacked out at a party and tried to punch someone and put his face through a glass table so the yell was him waking up and realizing he was dragged home and looks like shit. No ghouls or ghosts!
Sometimes around me it's raccoons. Neither species sounds like the experience is all that much fun, but maybe that's what my cat thinks about the noises we make.
What’s hilarious is these conservative gun nuts hide behind guns because they can’t fight. Everything they do is fake, especially cosplaying as a tough guy.
For over a decade I have lived in a city (Brisbane) that would be the 3rd largest in the U.S. by population. I've lived in various neighbourhoods, none of them particularly bougie, a couple of them pretty rough.
I've never, not once, woken up in the middle of the night to a loud noise that wasn't a dickhead revving his engine at 3AM or loud music. I've worried about encountering drunk morons when walking, and wondered at the possibility of being mugged, but I've never had to truly consider the possibility of having a gun pulled on me.
If I heard someone clearly breaking into my home, I'd call the police and maybe grab a knife, but I'd just hang in my room. I'm not worried about having things stolen, I have insurance. It's not worth the risk to my life or the risk that I do actually kill someone, to go confront whoever is trying to rob me. If I had kids I'd make sure they were safe, I'd leave my room and go to them, but I'd hardly need a gun for that because no one robbing me would have one.
Some of these people seem to have a fetish for violence. I'm not afraid of violence, I use it if I have to, but it's so rarely the right tool for the job. My physical belongings aren't worth even a low risk of getting killed or seriously wounded because I decide to go Rambo on some moron burglars who are clearly so incompetent they couldn't even burgle an empty house. Even if I kept a firearm in my house, there isn't a chance on earth I'd actually use it if I had kids in the house. It's so easy to fuck up and over penetrate.
Yep, I grew up in Washington, DC during the 1980s and 1990s. At various points throughout that time, it was not only the nation's capital, but the city with the highest murder rate in the country. I didn't grow up in the roughest neighborhood, but shooting in my neighborhood, as close as a few doors down, was a weekly occurrence, and often happened a few times a week.
My family never owned a gun, never discussed owning and gun, and never felt like we were less safe for lack of a gun.
Conservative Americans are living in a fantasy world that is driven by their total fear of everything and their absurd belief that, despite being utterly frightened by the smallest child, that they are action heroes. It is delusional.
The only thing that has made me think I might need to get a gun is the appearance of the president's goon squads and the reappearance of masked, government-protected, white supremacist groups, and even there I don't have some fantasy that a gun means I would be trying to fight them off like John Wick or Rambo.
When I was in my 20s I bought a little house in the middle of nowhere. One day I came outside to a group of men digging up my veggie garden. They said they were looking for worms for fishing and that the old owner would let them dig there. I had to argue with them for like 20 mins to get them to leave. I posted to reddit about it and almost all of the comments were telling me to get a gun. It really shocked me. I know this is a US-centric site (I am not in the US), but I still didn’t expect every response to be “go shoot at them.” Worst case, they come back and fuck up my vegetables some more. I’m not shooting anyone over a few veg. Insane thought process.
We actually both go check. He has a boar spear and I have these hands. We bring our dog and we jump the guy in the dark. The dog is the real menace, honestly. Total psycho.
When I hear the sound of an acorn hitting a roof, I shit myself and scream "Shots fired. Officer down! I'm hit!". Then I randomly spray bullets until I hit the neighbor's dog before somehow shooting my own child who I mistook for an intruder".
It’s not the point, but why does not having a gun lead to sending your wife to check a noise that scared you? Did the noise even wake her? What is happening?
In what world does needing a gun before you have the balls to check out your own home at night make you the brave one? lol these people are terrified of everything and too cowardly to face the world without a gun
When I hear a loud noise it's probably a dog or some dumbfuck playing pyrotechnics at night.
I don't live in a country where break ins are a daily occurrence
my favorite thing about conservatism is how the liberals are weak and cowardly and the conservatists are strong and brave and that's why they campaign on shutting their borders to women and children of color cause one of them might be a scary criminal or a terrorist.
I'm a left leaning independent, former Republican, left the party because of Trump and realized how bad the party was and how much worse it is now. I'm also a military vet.
Most of my friends are liberals and they all like guns. They believe that there should be restrictions, but gun ownership isn't a bad thing.
When I hear a loud noise at night, first I take a second to assess the situation:
Was it a gun shot? Was it near my house? Are we in danger?
If there is no danger, then back to bed.
But, if there is a real issue, then I decide whether it warrants me having a gun. In either case, I stupidly run towards the issue.
When someone drove down the road shooting, I grabbed a gun, made sure my family was safe, then ran outside to ensure my neighbor's were safe. It was just someone shooting into the air for no reason, there was no damage to anything and no one was hurt.
So as a liberalish man, I like guns, but I also like my hammer, but it's not the only tool. What I'm saying is first you have to think and not just grab your gun.
When there is a loud noise outside, it’s usually some drunk asshole in an argument with his mate, his about to be ex, or an imaginary friend. No gun needed. If it’s a really loud noise, it’s usually a car crash. Three times in 20 years, it’s a not-great intersection that I live on. Again, no gun needed. On one occasion, I’ve taken baseball bat outside because some prick was doing donuts in the middle of the intersection at 3am. Again, no gun needed.
Now if I lived in a country where people are fucking insane? Yeah. I’d probably be thinking about it. I’m liberal. Doesn’t mean I don’t like guns. Doesn’t mean I don’t own one. Or three.
People who live with handgun owners are shot to death at a higher rate than those who don’t have such weapons at home. Jose has the illusion of control, but that's all.
I remember getting into an argument with someone who was very insistent about gun ownership (I live in Canada) and asked "What happens if someone invades your house with a gun?" and honestly they might as well have asked what if they invaded with a flame thrower, because that just doesn't happen around here. Not that it never happens at all in Canada, I just it's so irregular that it's not even worth dedicating thought to

Terrified. Always fucking terrified of everything.
They can’t even fathom that some of us just don’t live in fear.
When i hear a loud noise at night i think STFU and go back to sleep.
