Notice the lack of riots in the good old U S of A? Maybe the money ran out when USAID was shut down. Maybe the Left told its loyal foot soldiers/useful idiots to cool it. Till after the elections, of course. It all seems so … ‘normal’. But I’m biased that way.

Yes?

It does take a mindset change to carry, with all the psychological challenges – it is a great weight to realize that you, personally, are in charge of your physical safety. That you have a deadly weapon on your person. I find it very calming (now). There’s no way I will get into an argument with someone, no road rage, no flipping off people.
Carrying is a grown-up realization that the world is not always normal. I’m sure that the Oregon dad did not wake up that morning saying, ‘OK, gotta wear my gun so that I can kill a school shooter today.’
But I’m sure there are plenty of children and parents thanking God that he carried.
