Reread what I wrote. I think you missed the part where I said that the situation could've been diffused before it even reached that point.
Obviously, the mother could have walked away at any point and the situation would have been defused.
The fact that you think she needed a gun to defuse the situation when literally the only thing she needed to do was WALK AWAY is the exact shyt I'm talking about.
So you're a gun owner arguing against people owning guns? Make that make sense.
Where did I argue against people owning guns? Are you a gun owner who tends to jump to unreasonable, unjustified conclusions? That's not good.
Guns are for killing shyt. They're useful when you need to kill something/someone or if you're a breh who just enjoys the challenge of shooting targets. But they're piss-poor at deescalating situations or defending yourself, because they are a fundamentally offensive tool, not a defensive one. I have no problem with guns, I have a problem with people who think guns make you safer. I own guns despite the risk, not because I'm scared of the world and think guns will actually reduce risk.
I'm responsible with my guns and I have zero problem with other responsible gun owners who know guns are dangerous and respect that fact. If you really don't think that there ain't
some people who shouldn't own a gun, then you're probably one of them.
