Very well said. Its kind of wild how we are wired in America. I watched a crime movie based in London a little while back and there were multiple times I was like yo….why didn’t they pull out the strap? Googled it and apparently cops don’t really do guns over there. Over like a two year period they only had 3300 deployments with firearms and not and not a single shot was fired Meanwhile over here EVERY cop is strapped up and regularly popping off.
Anyone in here strapped up? I’ve watched a lot of horror, home invasion and psychological thrillers and my first thought is always “if they just had the cal on em “ I definitely thought about it when I was living with my ex in DC. The neighborhood was up and coming but it hadn’t fully arrived. We had a super solid alarm system but we were stalling on the roll up gate for the back into the garage which led to a deck with glass doors. That always scared me for some reason because having glass on or around door seemed like the easiest way to break into a crib
Guns are just part of this stupid American culture. It’s not just these NRA people - this goes for everyone.
It’ll never change.
In fact guns sales go up after a tragedy like this.
