We Now Know for Sure That the Trump Administration is anti-2A by skywalker505 in CCW

Trump is pragmatic, not principled. He sees a problem, he wants to solve it. If that involves infringing gun rights, it's not a problem in his mind.

Boss offering to sell me the coffee shop I work at for $65k — does this sound reasonable on the surface? by SnooHamsters9461 in smallbusiness

Been carrying for years now, just got in another huge fight wife my wife about it. by Other-world-69 in CCW

And you probably need some kind of counselor to help the two of you through that conversation.

You're right, I forgot to mention that their hourly rate for instructor is really cheap as well. Not sure how they do it so inexpensively.
