Comment on Anon gives up dating apps
Wandering_jaguar@lemmy.world 1 month agoIt’s really not that big of a leap, guns tense things up. This tenseness leads to more devisive people and less communication comes about. When you think of a gun chances are what comes to mind first isn’t going to be something you want to think about. Now multiply that by 400 mil. That’s alot of bad vibes. If we can take those thoughts away and replace them with good ones yeah I think we would be better off. Kinda interesting you chose to make this about me when there are many other ways this convo could have gone.

Not typically among people who are regularly exposed to them
No, I think of the handgun in my nightstand, my father’s hunting rifle, my cop brother’s electronic gun safe, my friend’s revolver, and my former drug dealer’s shotgun
I’ve held that same handgun to my head and contemplated pulling the trigger, and I’m no closer to understanding what you mean by this
Seems like we could accomplish the same with universal gun safety classes/ positive exposure in k-12 (and greater access to no-cost therapy)
I think you’re in the minority for feeling this way. Just because you’re stating it as if it’s a universal truth doesn’t make it so. It’s a personal feeling you shared- I didn’t make it about you.
You got me there- if it makes everyone funny, that might be worth it

It would be worth. You could of bought a jet ski for the amount you spent on guns and if you have one already, what’s better than one jet ski? Two jet ski’s! And that sounds like a lot more fun than what ever the best thing you’ve accomplished with your hobby is.

Lol, time-share jet ski (ik you’re joking, but jet skis are a lot more expensive than guns)

The way you’re defending them sounds like you’ve invested a whole lot.
