I woke up from a dream where someone was trying to break into my house. He knew I was home, but he was still kicking the door and trying to break it.

It made me wonder if this is why Americans keep firearms at home. 馃

Yeah, one of the reasons. I actually wrote recently a bit about why I keep a firearm on me at all times.

It's literally just trauma I think. When people have tried to kill you multiple times, you fear the moment somebody catches you off guard.

It's 1am rn, I'm all alone, & I still have a pistol on my hip. It's just how I feel safe

@ChiefWalksWith40oz I like some stuff about the U.S., but I have to say it must be horrible to live like that. 馃槙

@LookingForTheSummer tbh I love my guns.. but yeah I wish I didn't have to feel unsafe without one. I wish all people in the US didn't have to feel unsafe without one.

I have a friend who got shot just going shopping in a grocery store months ago. She survived luckily but she's a mom who just had another baby, out shopping for her family. She didn't deserve that bullet. Who tf expects to get shot going grocery shopping?

@ChiefWalksWith40oz That really sucks. Nobody deserves to live in an environment where they can potentially get shot out of nowhere at any time.

@ChiefWalksWith40oz Its a sad day when you live in fear of being shot during a simple trip to the supermarket.
