        If you consider guns a part of your identity, you're wrong. As a former infantryman, I never considered my service weapon "part of my identity". Weird as hell.

        If a gun is tied to your identity you a sadly insecure person, grow up

        If your identity is tied to a gun you don’t have much self confidence or bravery.

        Founders knew consequences of either disarming or leaving citizens with smaller weapons. I understand that - as a non-gun owner.

        LMFAO If you’re worried about other people taking your guns, you probably know you’re irresponsible with them in the first place. 😂 What’s to worry about unless you’re batshit, a wife beater, or a criminal? LMFAO

        "...take a step back and think about how you identify yourself.... Is it because of how you identify yourself that makes it harder to think outside the box or break arbitrary rules of your social group? Or because it was 'how I was brought up'...?"https://thewriterandtherider.blog/2018/03/16/be-a-disruptor-but-only-the-right-way/ …

        yeah, sure. and the confederate flag is just about 'heritage', find a less dangerous 'identity'.

        not guns so much as the underpinnings of government via the violence they represent. You cry about NRA stupidity, yet trumpster loads you down with war mongers.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SeUqDjPeP0 …
