These people are waiting for Trump's signal, and then they'll start shooting their neighbors. They dream about it, they fantasize about it. Only an absolute idiot with a suicide wish chooses to not own a gun in the current political climate America is in. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Naura@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago* This is not about getting shot or not this is about marginalized people defending themselves from a society that wants them dead. Plenty of trans folks fear for their lives without one bullet being shot so your logic fails. If they do want to arm themselves, who I am to tell them that's irrational. I'm not trans. I don't know what their life is like. permalink fedilink source parent
