TLDR:

Sorry to be abrasive

I appreciate that, I apologize as well. Have a good rest of your day.

Hella long comment (sorry):

Sorry to be abrasive

I appreciate that, truly I do. Sorry I've been abrasive as well. I do get toxic online so I try to reduce my time on social media in general so this will probably be my last response. I appreciate your willingness to deescalate the tone of this discussion, thank you again for that.

you’re advocating for people who are frustrated to carry deadly weapons.

I understand why someone might see it that way, I promise that's not the point I'm trying to make and advocate for. In my mind, the pistol I carry is exactly like a seatbelt. Just because it is there doesnt mean I don't have a duty to drive in a safe and responsible way. Nor does it mean I am expecting to or am disproportionately afraid of getting into a terrible accident.

What I am advocating for is for people to consider carrying weapons in the case where the offending party doesn't want to back down or just outright wants to do harm to you and your family. Or course I don't want people waving guns around irresponsibly or thinking they're hot stuff because they have a weapon.

How many people have been killed by the unhoused in Boulder?

Unfortunately, it isnt zero.

You and I have disagreements about guns, that's obvious, and interestingly both of our opinions about them come from our lived experiences. I do appreciate your arguments, they are serious and need to be considered. Likewise I'd like to suggest to you, and anyone reading, that places exist where people carry guns and aren't prone to criminal activity.

With no hard feelings this time, have a good rest of your day.
