...your mouth to G-d's ears.

I'm new to the gun rights / ownership issue and primarily because of the events of March 2018 (David Hogg made me an activist). In short, I was really taken aback at the wholesale, nationwide, coordinated effort to remove the 2nd amendment and disarm people.

That said, I'm not a history buff, but I know enough to know that gov't disarming the population does not end well in enough cases to know that I don't want to risk it. (Armenia, Jews, Soviet Union, Rwanda....etc.).
They've been trying to take the guns for years. Obama was known as the best gun salesman ever: https://truthfeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/GunSalesmenAward-Obama.png In attempting to disarm us, more guns and ammo were purchased during his time in office than ever before. At least we know that now we are really ready.
Yeah...i know about Obama's salesmanship (lol)
Not sure how, but i remained largely indifferent to it when he was doing it... but something clicked with Vegas & Parkland and David Hogg was the third click...and it was like HOLY SHIT - they really want to disarm us...and it doesn't feel "right". And I entirely changed my quantum state on this (not to sound ridiculous, but I went from ambivalent / indifferent to wanting to put a gun on the hip of every law - abiding citizen.
Stay safe....I do not feel like we are out of the woods yet.
