    The left needs to get on board with this. Govt isn’t going to protect you from far right militias when the shit hits the fan.

      Cops aren’t required to protect you from anything. Learn how to protect you and yours. And learn how to read situations, always.

      Not advocating anything, but there’s a “it could happen here” podcast episode for leftists out there, with some really good info.

      AR-15 is a very good gun to get unless you’re in a state like CA. Shotgun sare good too, Mossberg is fairly affordable(btw, you still need to aim with shotguns). Glock 19 for a pistol, just know pistols are harder to use and you will need to train with it more.

        I like shotguns, but I don’t think they’re a great defensive tool. Even with massive extenders on the magazine tube, you are getting a max of 8 shots, and reloading quickly is a pipe dream unless you are one of the very few, very highly practiced competition shooters.

        Don’t be ableist. There is plenty enough that is actually wrong with him that you could target instead of the fact that he’s disabled.
