People are trying to kill me. So the USA and access to guns seems the safest choice
@splitshockvirus thanks i will check it out!
@olives Not at my Dutch home at the moment, in the USA right now.
There is no thibg as Assault weapon, perhaps you mean assault rifle (that is thr military one). Those are illegal for civilians though no worries. I have an AR-16, its a small game rifle used by farmers to kill foxes and gophers, there isbt anythibg about it that actually mskes it any more dangerous than most other rifles.
@mike805 In my case I am just at high risk as a target right now.. So im not into the lifestyle or anything, sounds like a hassle, but im stuck carrying for a while for sure.
@splitshockvirus Yea I suspect it will just be people kicking me out of places if they notice it.
@mia The Judge really only has one valid use, and it is great for that use... short-distance in-bedroom defense with the first shot (shotgun) and then the colt 45 bullets to put the person down after you disabled them. Outside of that one scenario its only use is witht he colt 45, and frankly there are better guns for that bullet alone.
@mia The Judge is for in-bedroom defense only. So Anyone I shoot will be pretty close indeed and it is perfect for that purpose.
My carry would not be the Judge, it would be the HK VP9
@splitshockvirus I figured most of the time they wont even see it... So what i kinda expect is ill be shopping and they see it half way through or something and throw a fit.
As I said in my response to this person, I have absolutely no issue with the claim that "proper english" is sometimes used against trans people when discussing pronouns...
The issue is that is so peripheral to the discussion, which wasnt about pronouns at all, as to be absurdist to equate what I said to the issue at all.
I'd say your being absurd... but we are literally at the point where recognizing spelling exists at all is transphobic... so... i just dont know...
@Deji Im a "guns dont kill people" person and am actively against the banning of books.
@alecui writing as well, yea
I never meant to imply the rules cant be broken... Only that you should know the rules and use them in a formal setting, and that in an informal settings I personally prefer to default to the proper spelling of words. Other people can do whatever they want in an informal setting.
@alecui No I think you misunderstood... I never said I had any problem with you speaking informally in an informal setting.
