    I am a gun toting liberal. Am I the only one? These thugs are not the police they are not the military. Arm yourselves people. Trump wants to see dead liberals in the streets before he croaks. Tick tock tick tock.

      I am as well, but I rarely carry. I’m physically disabled and partially blind; while I have range practice (need to go more often…), in a situation I’m doubtful of my abilities. When I do carry (or just at home) for me it’s personal security in a hypothetical one-on-one encounter, not one-on-many. I acquired mine after the pulse nightclub shooting. Disabled and gay seems like an easy target.

      I did get my ex into firearms before we split, and he’s kept it up as an interest and a hobby, acquiring multiple firearms over the years. Though I don’t know if he carries regularly.

      Definitely need more pushback and defense, for all of us.

      Myself and everyone I know here in Oregon are as well.

      Hell, one guy I know has an entire bunker under his yard with an armory I could only dream of.

      My good friend has ~12 guns and two safes full of ammo.

      The list goes on and on.
