    That would instantly start a civil war, and if you’re keeping track, we don’t have any/as many guns.

      Speak for yourself, and if you don’t, you should really look into buying them. We’re not heading towards a happy place in this country.

      That’s a personal problem. The people paying attention and most at risk have been arming themselves since 2015. LGBTQ, Black, and Hispanic gun ownership are the fastest rising ones. Trailing them is more white people, whos rate of gun ownership is also rising, just slower. Eveyones been buying more guns.

      I don’t own guns. I own glass bottles. They are far more effective weapons when wielded correctly. A single glass bottle can do more damage than a thousand bullets.

          No, it is not. It really is not. Because Charlie is smart enough to fill the glass bottle and use it while Mac sleeps.

        I don’t own glass bottles. I own garden gnomes. They are far more effective weapons when wielded correctly. A single garden gnome can do more damage than a thousand glass bottles.

          It is astonishing how few people know how to correctly deal damage with a glass bottle. It is not about the glass, it is about what it is filled with. Now I am smarter than to explicitly state anything in an open forum online that could constituted unprotected speech, not that that holds much water. Speaking of, the bottles are not filled with water.

        Wow, so many down votes. Either people don’t understand or they are against historically useful anarchic ordinance. Seriously people, if we have any hope of dealing with these problems we need to take some cues from some Ukrainian grandmothers circa 2 to 3 years ago regarding the proper and artful application of glass.
