I grew up in Western ND and was very much exposed to firearms as a kid. Heck, the US Army even had a ‘depot’ and encouraged kids to come in and shoot.
After kid-hood, I just never got around to owning any. Wasn’t interested in hunting.
However, and I put a thread on this board at that time, I was threatened by someone in the community where he said something to the effect that the time is coming, very soon, when f’in liberal scum and their families like mine will face justice by lead poisoning. Since the election was coming up I figure that is what he meant so I joined a gun club and purchased a pistol…and a shotgun and practiced learning how to use them.
So that is why I have one now for this poll.
