>>18062236Alright kind of a long post, but here goes:
My brother (who talked me into buying the pistol, along with my Dad) has taken me to that particular shop/range before, so I can get a feel of the place while he browses what they have in stock. From the times I've gone, I've seen the patrons are mostly nogs and MAGAt rednecks, with the occasional Arab guy.
I just don't think it's safe to go, in the case an argument breaks out and escalates into something worse. It happens a lot in my city, if the morning news is anything to go by. Not to mention that in this political climate, tensions are high af.
Then there's just how dirty it makes me feel. I'm a pacifist at heart, so just buying the damned thing made me feel like a sleazeball. I'm sure you can imagine how actually firing it would make me feel. Like a fraud, most likely.
