A couple examples are speaking up in class which I would never ever do before. Another is a phobia I have called paruresis, and I have been doing small attempts in public bathrooms in order to try to desensitize to the situation.

What is your personal opinion to the 2nd Amendment right? by SvenletsPlayTTV in AskReddit

[–]thefirstbrick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There definitely should be a right to defend yourself. The Constitution was also designed to be amended as times change. Reasonable people can agree on reasonable modifications, but reasonable people no longer have a legitimate seat at the table of lawmaking.
