Every chud in my life is obsessed with someone breaking into their house and the situation being resolved with the discharge of a firearm. And these are people living in low crime areas out in the suburbs, with no pedestrians. It’s frustrating to talk with these people since their whole worldview is a racist panic over some imagined brown interloper invading their white fortresses.
One of my coworkers tells me he always pulls out his Glock to check the corners when he comes home in the evening. Another has a CCTV system and an AR15 by his bed. I personally don’t own a gun anymore because I don’t trust myself with one, and chuds will ask me what I’ll do if some mentally unwell person high on amphetamines decided to enter my apartment. I guess I’d leave or call an ambulance? It seems so unlikely of a scenario that even if I had a firearm I probably wouldn’t use it right, or even register this person as a threat quickly enough to do a John Wick style takedown.
How many home invasions are actually stopped this way? Do chuds all think they’re Robocop?
Childish “shooting bad guys” fantasies aside, i feel like these people rarely think about how much it sucks to clean up blood. God help you if you have carpet or if the laquer on your wood floor is worn through. Never getting your deposit back.
Whenever you see news stories about someone killing an intruder, all the comments are like “give that man a cookie!!! He did society a favor!!” No mentions of mental healthcare or wishing him a quick mental recovery. Just congratulating on the killing and that’s it.
Years back in my chud days I used to hang out on a gun forum, like AR15 dot com or something. There’d been a user who actually did shoot an intruder, and actually did kill him.
Everyone on the forum thought he was the coolest guy in the world. I remember the user being traumatized and hated being asked about it and treated like a hero until he finally left the forum entirely.
Gross. Like rule 1 is you don’t ask people about people they’ve killed. if they bring it up, fine. But you don’t bring it up.
Can we make an exception for asking cops/troops?
There isn’t enough bleach and club soda in the world.
