I live in liberal hipster paradise, Portland, Oregon (I say that completely unironically and lovingly). I don’t think I have seen a gun or heard a gunshot in town (except police as others have covered). There is definitely gun violence around, I just haven’t encountered it. I definitely have friends who have never handled a gun.

Get out of town, though, into a state forest or something, and you are bound to hear people out target shooting. Most folks do it safe places like quarries so they can shoot into a wall, but once and a while I come across a spot where there is nothing to stop a bullet but trees. As a person who does a lot of off trail mushroom hunting I think this is the most likely way that I get shot. I really wish there was some sort of training required to own a firearm.

A lot of people like to carry when they hike and camp too, which I think is as silly as keeping a gun under your pillow. Like, that is just asking for a terrible accident. In fact someone I know was shot and killed while out hiking and I can only imagine it was some kind of stupid accident or over reaction or something.

Sorry for rambling, this is my kind of everyday interaction with guns. PS, my partner and I own several handguns, an AK 47, a shot gun, and some rifles. Many of them were inherited and we never really shoot them anymore. It’s weird.

Jesus was so cool

No wonder there are so many Christians

Is this an Omega Mart product?

Jesus this is so true and so fresh; I love it

As an entomologist the era of the Lämp was heaven

This is the future everyone is afraid of?

OMG, can you play a reverse uno card on this? So much of this argument is the problem with the changes they are making. So frustrating.
