A place for all to discuss defense, weapons, strategy, and related topics, especially in relation to the Igbt community and our allies
The best option for a defensive firearms is a 5.56x45mm AR-15, 12gauge Remington 870 shotgun, and a reputable 9x19mm handgun.
Defensive firearms should have a WML, long guns a sling, and handguns require a Kydex or solid plastic holster that fully covers the trigger.
A red dot or etched optic is ideal, but backup irons are important as well! Be sure to check out r/TheArmedGayAgenda

MODERATORS
We are living in Trump time again. Remember last term? Each day felt like a week or a month had passed, depending. And this time is much, much worse. We’re in front row seats to death of democracy, the routing out of the shattered remains of the middle class, militarization, privacy erasure, and bankruptcy while this admin robs the nations coffers.
This is how the catecholamine response of the human body works. Fight, flight, or freeze it creates an internal sense of a time warp in which everything slows down.
You may think you’re having a relaxed day, but if this is an overall effect you’re experiencing, you’re not, really.
This isn’t as obvious as the lab animal that lays down on the randomly electrified floor, but that is our present state of being right now. A perpetual inner state of learned helplessness:
Oh I definitely feel all of that. It's such a bizarre idea to me that some people are totally tuned out of the world burning around them. My parents and some others I know are like that. I could never ignore the truth like that.
Compartmentalization is a defense mechanism.
For my parents, it's not that though. They are just resigned to pretend nothing has changed with Trump, because they need to believe that. They voted for him.
