> That's not the impression i get from the people screaming they need to carry weapons to feel safe.

I don’t want to dive too deeply into this, as it isn’t the heart of your comment - but I do want to say that as someone who carries a firearm every day, it’s not because I feel unsafe. Rather, it’s because I see it as my responsibility to maintain that safety, not the responsibility of someone else (i.e., police).

It’s based in ideology, not inadequate governance.
