Inb4 religion...Whats is a good reason why you havent armed yourself? With everything going on around us, it might benefit the world as a whole for you to equip yourself with an equalizer.
Go buy a cheap pistol at the very least and learn to put rounds on target. We need all the backup we can get.
Not everyone has the their mental health in check enough to not take their own life. Having a gun makes killing yourself easier imo.
Easier than jumping off a bridge, or overdosing on a drug, or slashing one's wrist??? Why should my Constitutionally guaranteed rights be restricted because of someone else's fragility? Their rights end where mine begin. That's the same as asking me to embrace someone else's delusion and requiring me to use their preferred pronouns. Not gonna happen.
Nobody here is suggesting that your rights be limited. This guy posted why some people might choose not to exercise their rights.
That's not how I read it,
"Not everyone has the their mental health in check enough to not take their own life. Having a gun makes killing yourself easier imo".
The comment directly states that people with mental health issues are more easily able to kill themselves because of the availability of guns. The implication is that if guns were not as available, people would be less likely to kill themselves. This seems to suggest that guns should be made less accessible.
No, that's not what it says. What it says is that people with mental health issues are more easily able to kill themselves if they have guns. It says nothing about availability; it's a comment on possession. Which makes perfect sense in the context of the question, which is "why don't you own a firearm", again about possession rather than availability.
No, the implication is that if someone is likely to kill himself, that person should choose not to possess a gun. Nothing in this post is about gun availability.
Great point. I think that is one of popular responses to not having a gun and I commend people for knowing their own personal limits. We will carry for you anons, no worries!
