        Guns are not the answer. Responsible people know when and how to use a gun. But the gun freaks in the USA are the irresponsible idiots that think guns work like in the movies. We have a ton of untreated mental illness in our country.

          Oh, that’s literally why I wouldn’t trust myself and can’t legally buy a gun. I have depression, anxiety, and ADHD. I’m too afraid I’d have a bad day, like today, and blow my brains out and still live anyways.

          And I’m medicated. I can’t imagine how people without their meds would feel.

              I stopped drinking 5 years ago. I quit smoking weed 4 months ago.

              It’s… It’s really hard to not just go out and buy some weed to fill that void in my soul right now.

              I think tomorrow, I’m gonna double my Adderall dose.

          And when it comes down to action, the liberals are about as effective in pushing change as the DNC.

      Some people aren’t American. Some people (like me) just live in countries that follow USAs footsteps when it comes to politics.
