Interesting that the New York Times paired this op-ed by a white woman based on her anecdotes of fear and paranoia - instead of actual gun safety data - with a photo of a woman of color...

What's more ironic is she claims alt right folks caused her to grab for a weapon.

Gun ownership has always been about pushing fear and dismissing facts.
This woman will be LESS safe with a firearm in her home; those are the facts.
I guess this is why it's an "opinion" piece?

That is total bs. I would rather have a gun securely able to be used if needed over waiting on police.

I guess a burglar alarm and sturdy windows wouldn't have been as cool a story as momma ready to splatter brain matter In her daughters bedroom.

Every time you (whomever you are) appear on my feed it's either because you have tweeted something completely ignorant or hateful. I think you might need help.
