Old phart. TechnoFudd. Retired (38 years in Aerospace was quite enough.) Had a very good career. Married. Enjoying retirement. Dog Dad. Lovin' Florida.
@Chuyuck@Buck4B@BreannaMorello No. An evil person is the most dangerous of weapons, regardless of what s/he holds in the hand. Inanimate object are just things.
@1truekamisama@BreannaMorello I expect the "Justice" system will slow roll the processes, adding many months between the verdict and the sentencing, with many appeals being considered in between.
@Buck4B@BreannaMorello Hear you, those are very rational points. But a black perpetrator, a youth, a first offender (as an adult), political correctness, social balancing, the fear of a violent racialist response, and the overarching environment of racial pandering argues against that rationality.
@tanpukunokami In my state of Florida, if a store has a no gun sign, it is of no concern. If they notice my gun (unlikely), they can only ask me to leave. I will, of course, as I am law-abiding.
Florida is very safe, criminals know they might face opposition.
@AWRHawkins I'm completely nonjudgmental. I want all the guns. ;)
Buuuuut, if I had to chose... CZ, for my preferred DA/SA operating system and the multitude of platforms and options.
@hokkori_buzz@Jringo1508 My highest duty is to my family. I will defend them with my life. That is why I am armed, inside our house or out.
Thank you for letting us explain.
@hokkori_buzz Japan is fortunate in being largely mono-cultural. The US is divided into many races, cultures and political sides. All real facts we have to deal with. Too often those segments become violent and the other side must defend itself.
The lawful gun owners are very law-abiding.
@mtracey Nope.
As a snot-nosed WWII nerd, I knew about the SS and their Totenkopf sigil. I also knew it was that it was the foulest icon of the Nazi regime. That knowledge was widely known to anyone with rudimentary knowledge of modern history, or watched movies or popular comedies.
@KurtSchlichter White man's burden.
Especially us neon-white, melanin-negative folk of Scot and Prussian descent.
To the good, I get nekkid with my cute dermatologist every 6 months.
@japan_nobunaga Nobunagasan, wait for winter.
It gets very cold in most of the US and people bundle up for the freezing temps. Companies excessively heat their buildings, roasting the people dressed for the weather.
Thankfully in my Florida, I wear shorts and t-shirts 355 days of the year!
