most fucking americans think trump is a dangerous asshole. start from there. don’t let these people tell you otherwise. think of every person you’ve ever met that likes donald trump and think of what every person that deals with them thinks. same as 2020.
man, you work in a cubicle or a kitchen or a factory or a warehouse or wherever you work, the NYT oped board thinks you work in a corner office with an expansive view of NYC and go home to a 3BR apartment in a high rise, but you don’t have to believe them or treat them as if you do.

these fucking fascists were stronger in 2020 that they are now and they are only getting stronger now because columnists in the least representative cities in america are both bored and lazy. break these fuckers.

If these fascists think they're gonna take me down without a fight, I have my father's Ithaca 37 Deerslayer and a pallet of Slugs as a counter-argument. Because the only kind of "non-consent" signalling they understand from "people lesser than them" is the muzzle of a gun.

you should probably get an AR15 tbh.

Not a good idea in NY. I'd be better off with a Mini-14, since I can get that with a wood stock and in NY the wood stock is basically a free pass for "yeah there's nothing wrong with this gun" sorta kinda.

But the reason I pick the shotgun first is because that iconic sound of racking a shotgun is usually enough to send would-be malcontents running, which saves on ammo and paperwork for all involved.

I'm a light sleeper, all the doors that lead indoors squeak loud enough to raise the dead because I intentionally don't oil them, and I'm not RELYING on racking the shotgun to scare them off. Like you said, that's fuddlore. If that doesn't do it, I'm already lining up the shot on them within <3s.

I don't like the idea of killing, but if that's what it comes to, I will not hesitate to pull the trigger. Cops won't get here fast enough, I know that much.

no one wants to kill, however some people only understand violence and in that case one must act accordingly and with judicious marksmanship.

Now that much I wholeheartedly agree with.

No matter what firearm I might have to open fire with, I was never going to be doing something so stupid as aiming for the knees or anything like that. Nope. If it's a pistol or rifle, 2 in the chest, one in the head.

the best way to win a fight is to not fight fairly, and giving away one's position is a good way to get ventilated if you dont have a gun staged correctly.

Didn't exactly want to have to buy a new gun JUST for home defense, and there's not much they'll let you hunt with 5.56 Nato/.223Rem here in NY. I'd have to get an AR-10 (or similar) instead of the -15 if I wanted something with deniability.
