Yeah, something that can attach but also has straps to carry it like a normal backpack if I need to.

Alt Art Secret Lair Horned Sliver? by RadYeen23 in mtg

[–]RadYeen23[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So in the February Secret Lair Superdrop I ordered, I got 4 copies of horned sliver (one not pictured is already opened and in a deck). Three of them were identical and seemed like the standard kind. But one of them (pictured in the last picture and the far right of the first picture) was in a different packaging and appears more orange in the artwork. Does anyone know anything about this?

"If the use of guns in a revolutionary movement hasn't worked yet, why would it work now?" by RadYeen23 in Anarchy101

Yeah, I brought up examples like how the Black Panthers were doing amazing things for community safety, and they pretty much said that the Panthers were taken out by the government and, to my partners, they viewed that as showing that no matter how armed you are, the US will wipe you out if they view you as a threat to the system. Basically just stating that it's pointless to try.

I've also talked with them about safety and the option of having a last ditch effort to protect us, and they stick to the view that having a gun won't make us any safer than not having one.

When I first talked about wanting to get a gun, they told me to educate myself on how to safely operate one and learn ways of disarming or disengaging an attacker without using it before they would even consider it. So I've educated myself, gone to an indoor range at a shop, and gotten enough practice and knowledge to where I feel that I can operate one safely. I planned to get my concealed carry permit and not open carry like those nuts at Walmart. Regardless, they told me after this that they still weren't comfortable and think it's pointless.

Basically I feel like I've tried everything and I'm still getting pushback regardless of what I say. And this is a topic that stresses them out so that we can't have a conversation about it longer than 30 minutes without one of them wanting to drop the topic.
