Life is full of responsibilities. A gun is nothing more than a tool, a lethal tool to be sure, but a necessary one in the world we live in. I applaud you for taking that step. I also urge you to get training on how to use it, become proficient at using it, and be a good citizen. We're going to need all good citizens to step up in the days to come.

Just thinking about all the tools in my garage that could be considered lethal.
In the Marines, we were taught that when shtf, everything is a weapon.
Semper Fi, fellow jarhead. Yes, that's true, just about anything might be used as a weapon. But then again, any weapon is just a tool. It's an inanimate object made by someone. A hammer is used to drive a nail; a saw is for cutting wood, a weapon is used to fight a tyrant or a criminal. But those tools don't do those things by themselves, it takes a human to use them properly.
We care for our tools...keep them in good maintenance, don't just leave them lying around or rusting in the yard, and we know how to use them.
Once the job is done, we maintain and then put away our tools and return to living. But we always know where our tools are when they are needed.
