So I tell a lot of stories about my life here

Totally relatable. Well i do not own guns but i mean, the part about unable to talk about certain things here, because people are not open minded enough to see that we do not take any one side, but we are grounded in logic and what is best for ourself and those around us.

More people should open their minds and accept situations as different, for different people.
Having a "law" in our mind dealing in absolutes, is a sure way to be closed up to learning and understanding.

I think this site is an escape for most and for that reason I think it should be a place where you’re most comfortable and shouldn’t have to filter what you say. FB and the offline world are places meant for filters. 🤔 I think this site is a place Where many are their unknown self. Regardless of what you post or comment you’ll earn blocks…so, going on that reason alone on why you don’t wanna talk about something especially something you genuinely would like to be open about isn’t really fair to your experience here. I have many blocks, but I also enjoy this site and post whatever tf I want as a result of that. If they block me for it then we clearly just don’t have similar vibes and if that’s the case I’m cool with it. 🤷‍♀️ The ones I do have similar vibes with chill on the post and enjoy the post and we’re able to connect more in that way.

I didn’t read the whole thing, but yeah. This is your platform to discuss anything you need and want to let out. That’s how I look at things, and that’s basically what my profile is all about. I just post whatever the fuk comes to my mind. Think a lot of people on here appreciate that about me the most regardless how crazy I can be. I’m just having fun because who the hell wants to be an adult all the time. I am an honest person and I keep it real, thats what people like. Don’t be that person who’s just gonna follow others to be popular. NO! go out and do your own thing here. It’s beautiful when people can just be themselves

Oh I stopped giving a flying fuck about what people on here think of my stories. I’ve had a full on mental breakdown on here. I think you just have to know that not everyone will like what you have to say, but so what, why is their opinion important? Everyone has a past and nobody is perfect. I always go for the brutally honest approach, if people don’t like me it’s cool, just means we were never going to have a friendship anyway. Just do you

It disappoints me that people's hate prevents me from getting to know you better.

You can tell me anything. One lady on here told me that she abuses her kid. I didn't judge her, I heavily encouraged her to get help. Once I saw that she wasn't willing to, I called the police. But that was after giving her a chance and because it was an active situation.

So if you ever want to talk about something, just tell me.

This site is funny like that isn't it.
Even though it is anonymous so that you can openly share stories like what you are apprehensive about sharing.
Your real name isn't Chief walks with 40 oz. I don't know your real name or your address or your PIN number or even your phone number. But yet you still feel protective of what people think of your anonymous profile.
I can laugh at you with both hands on my belly and tears coming out of my face and maybe even a little snack out of my nose because I do the same thing.
This stupid ass profile might as well have my name and address on it because I treat it just the same.
And here you are not supposed to care if someone agrees with you but yet we do.
This place isn't a popularity contest yet we treat it as such just like we do in real life.
There's a very prolific lesson that I am sure could hold some philosophical one hand clapping type clarity.
I don't know that answer. But I do find it humorous that more people feel this way than just myself.
I was told I don't share enough stories on here and that people would find them interesting.
I mostly share all of my stuff in the comments of someone else's post. I guess that isn't really fair to the rest of the people that may be interested if they don't happen along the other post.
So any long-winded way I am trying to say share the story and see what happens and who cares if anti-gunners attack you.
We can't please all of the people all of the time and we are not all everyone's cup of tea. But we should feel free to express ourselves especially here.
Okay I just really want to hear the story about you shooting someone. LOL

If you only live your life a certain way for fear of being judged, then are you really living? Have you just not made yourself submissive to anyone who disagrees with what you think or like. Where is the freedom or joy in living only to not bother others?

I own guns, lots of them. Grew up with them and an adoptive father that was a Marine. He taught me how to shoot, stab, throw a knife, fight. All good things for someone to know, especially now. The fact that you chose to become proficient with your gun, train, and get certified says all I need to know about your character and demeanor. Having guns does not make you a gun nut. Honestly gun nuts in my view are the ones running around calling other people gun nuts. It is your right in this country to have one, and you have chosen to accept that awesome right and responsibility in the absolute best way. Kudos.

I'm glad you made it out of that situation. You have a really cool way of expressing yourself and I feel like I either learn something and/or just enjoy reading your thoughts. Including adding to the "useless but interesting information" we both like to collect. It's too bad that you (and me, and many others) feel hesitant to always be open because of those who come here to judge and argue. Funny, on this particular topic, I think I'm right there in the middle with you, except that I'm one who doesn't own guns - mainly because I don't have any training or expertise with them. But I couldn't have written my own thoughts on the subject better than you just did, lol.

Don’t talk about guns 🤣 unless you get the uppity pussy ass soft ass foreigners some tissues first and a tampon to shove up their ass

I’m just kidding please tell the story and don’t worry about them. They’re so miserable and hateful they find any reason to hate america

I genuinely think they’re so angry about their living situation in their country that they project it onto Americans

All we ever did was run a bomb ass country that you all want shit from when shit gets hard 🤧

Im glad you're alive

Don't be afraid to open but also be prepared some people on here don't hold back on their opinions be ready for it, but don't also let it get under your skin. There is always going to be that someone who gets a little too passionate about it or someone crazy just do you but have a limit on yourself

I think this site could use a few more middle of the road posts.

I care less and less about how people judge me. I'd love to see your story. But I'm also a down the middle pro gun ownership with regulations/licensing.

Be yourself. The ones who don't like it will remove themselves. 👋🏻
I really love your posts. I'm not a fan of guns at all, but I'm not going to judge you for your past or having to defend yourself.

There are so many of us from outside the USA who don’t understand the whole owning guns thing.

Is this post a cry for help? 👀☕️ You’re talking about shooting guns and then it’s categorized under “self” 👀👀👀👀👀

I’m invested tho, so what happened? 👀 Also happy that you’re still alive!

I think you know my feelings on guns, I just give this whole question a 👎

[quote] I did shoot someone... but he shot at me first & if I didn't have my gun I might've died that night.
I do think the world would be better without guns.. I do think we need to regulate them way more.[/quote] you might want to look into what happened to shut down EP and definitely seek an attorney as well.
Geez 🙄 you’d think life on the “streets” would come with “street smarts or at least “streetwise” behavior. Not that I actually believe any of this. But I’m sure that you’re not the first person to make light of their criminal activities on a public forum.

[quote]
I took many classes for mine & have my license for it. Even though where I live thats not even necessary. I did that because I believe it's important. I'm very well trained to the point I can take apart any gun & put it back together no problem. Which is surprising to many people considering my background.[/quote]. Oh I should have kept reading. I didn’t realize that you are an altruistic scofflaw. 👎

I am really glad you are still alive and I commend you for sharing this. I am happy that you decided to get out of that life because who knows how long you would have lasted.

I am glad you have taken training on how to use a gun. I have pretty liberal views on guns but I really appreciate the extra time you have taken to know how to use them.

Just write it with a qualifier that you're not inviting debate

Cos it sounds really interesting, and it would be a pity for us to miss out on it

Same man. I don't post shit I survived because shit is too raw. It will get too political and people take things too seriously. I'm just here to have lighthearted fun. Do you man, no judgement on my end. Stay safe
