Long story extremely short, I had a cousin that was like 10 when he tragically shot himself when on a hunting trip with his dad and my uncle. Really messed up the family. That’s the main reason I’ve never wanted to have a gun around my house

Good question. I never really thought about it like that, which I’m sure shows my ignorance. I guess a rifle? I’ve never been in a situation where I’ve needed a handgun (knock on wood), but my family always went hunting in Wisconsin and came back with venison for the freezer

Oh yeah. I have my own thoughts on 2A. My guess is that the founding fathers wanted to ensure that what they did to the indigenous people here couldn’t be done again to them.

I’ve read up on black gun clubs and think it’s smart for everyone to have at least a working knowledge of guns and the laws around them.
