5. Gun owner
Mon Dec 16, 2024, 10:38 PM
Dec 2024

I am a gun owner. I have had a hunting rifle and shotgun for years. Until about 5 years ago, I had not owned a handgun. I have come to believe that there may come a time when we have to defend ourselves, our family and this country. We hear all the braggadocio of the RWNJs proclaiming how they own most of the guns. I have enough that if I or my family are attacked, they will realize their mistake. As a retired Army senior NCO, I am trained in the safe use of firearms and I have a concealed carry permit. I know many of my fellow democrats may not approve of gun ownership, but I have my beliefs. I am in favor of red flag laws and universal background checks.
