I feel like it’s a certain brand of white folks who espouse this ethos, and I wonder if it’s rooted in protecting stolen property.

I don’t have any way to prove this right now, but I feel like the white American ethos of home protection using firearms is rooted in racism, I think specifically fear of native people during the frontier days.

Re: why are you saying this if you don’t have proof? FYI: I’m a scholar. Which means research. Which means reasearch questions. Which means that I can kick around a thesis on this app. And when I say I feel I mean my hunch is based on scholarship I’ve already done. But go off.
