I feel safe wherever I go. I carry a .45 and I train weekly in combat defense. I hope I never have to dispatch my weapons.
Well, good for you. I’m glad you were able to carry a pistol. I’m handicap, but I do everything I can to work out to be strong. Build muscles to be able to fight against the criminals if need be.
Here in New York State we have to go through a rigorous process to get a pistol and I think that is unacceptable. I should be able to go buy a pistol right now without a “pistol permit” . I don’t have a criminal record, and I say I am entitled to carry a gun as a man as a Christian as an American. We need to reform the gun laws in this country.
Honestly, I feel uncomfortable walking around some areas. And this is kind of how the conversation goes.
Random guy “ don’t go down to the east side of Buffalo you might get robbed or shot”
Me -“ is this how we should feel about our fellow Americans. Yes, there are drug dealers, violent gang members in the inner cities. What about all the good people of these areas?”
The point is that there is danger there is crime in the inner cities we didn’t have this in the 1950s and 1960s back in those days. The blacks and whites had a great middle class. Amazing things were happening in Buffalo back in the day,. There was a up to 100,000 middle class jobs available for anybody right out of high school hell some of them dropped out of high school and had those jobs. What a proud time that was you talk with any person from Buffalo they tell you that.
But the bottom line is, I do at times feel uncomfortable, going to someplaces in the inner cities, and I’m trying to fight that feeling. I think part of that comes from the devil part of it comes from the propaganda in the media. But maybe some part of it is a legitimate feeling I don’t know. Something to look at.
