All firearm safety classes (which I assume you agree should be taken if you own a firearm), teach to shoot center mass. Trying to hit a moving target in a smaller area like the knee, you are likely to miss. This gives the criminal a chance to kill or injure you. The aim is to stop the person from harming you, not necessarily kill them.
Unfortunately, the only people that will abide by these rules are law abiding citizens. Thus allowing criminals to get firearms easier than those who follow all of these proposed laws. Perhaps stricter penalties and enforcement of existing laws would go a long way. There is no perfect solution here.
@marycatedelvey I have to wonder if it’s really physical safety in the men’s room/locker room that is feared. Or is it fear of rolling eyes, snickers, and snide remarks from other men?
According to Grok, it might look like this, if it were a monthly budget. A couple makes $4500 a month, they spend $6700 a month.
Mandatory spending (mortgage, utilities, etc.) $4221
Defense spending (home security system) $1005
Interest on credit card debt $536
Discretionary spending (school supplies, home repairs, charities, luxury items, etc.) $938
Each month, they put $2200 on their credit card to pay for all this. Even if they stopped all spending except mandatory & interest on credit card, they would still have to spend $257 a month on their credit card.
@trollqueen19@sappholives83@BlueSkye2009 THIS. 💯 why do they always bitch at women for not wanting them in our spaces but NEVER bitch at the men for making them feel ‘unsafe’ in THEIR spaces?? Why should women bear the burden?
It’s not the folks part, it’s the friends part that concerns her. Grooming always starts with an adult trying to befriend a child. I’m not saying that is what is happening here. She probably taught her daughter to be aware of adults trying to befriend her, so the teacher calling her ‘friend’ may have made her daughter uncomfortable.
@Christophius_ @eyeslasho 3.98 GPA, graduated college in 3 years with honors, BS in Molecular Biology, 517 MCAT, 2 years experience in medical field, research, volunteer work. Same result.
@MdBreathe@MyFreeDoctor@BenMarble_MD My dr recommended melatonin, vit C & zinc. I already had a script for high dose vit D. So at least he did something. However, when the vax came out 3 weeks later, he recommended that I get it. I reminded him that I already had Covid & he still said I should get it. WTF? Um, no.
@Babydoll921961@ichudov Anyone feel free to correct me if I’m wrong, but it sounded like he said мощи я. It would be like an English speaker saying ‘hey, can I say something?’ As in shut up & let me talk.
The community note simply states the truth. No evidence it was written by the ‘DeSantis People’. I like you Jack but lately I don’t know if you have DeSantis Derangement Syndrome or Trump Worship Syndrome or both. I have no issues with either candidate. Anyone but Biden. We need to stop the infighting & focus on getting Biden out of office.
@FoxNews I wonder why they never mention the person whose job it was to make sure the gun wasn’t loaded? I don’t like Baldwin but he’s just an actor. Sets have professionals to handle firearm safety. They were negligent & should be facing charges & a civil suit.
@EdKrassen So, basically you’re saying science changes over time based on new data. Therefore, the overused phrase ‘the science is settled’ is complete BS. Got it.
@EpochTimes@USDOT I was stuck on the tarmac for 5 freaking hours one time! It was a small regional airport our 737 jet had to divert to for refueling because we ran out of gas circling DFW for so long. Toilets overflowed & we ran out of all drinks. Total shit show.
@notkopsh@JackPosobiec I assume so, but he’s Polish which has a different word for friend, & friend would be pronounced as drook in Russian. I think it’s an inside joke since I’ve seen him use it before 🤷♀️
