This may shock you, but maybe I shouldn't need to be armed with lethal weapons just to go kiss a boy without anus-tightening fear?
No sure. You're right. Concealed weapons are the answer to homophobia, racism, and erectile dysfunction.

Yeah, you wouldn't want a means to defend yourself from getting your face kicked in by 5 gay bashers who have decided to bash you or anything. Or for that matter to make them think twice about bashing gays since they might try to bash one who happens to be armed. Being a victim is definitely preferable to being empowered.

The point of having, like, civilization, is so that we don't need to rely on brute force to go about our lives unmolested. You know? That's what seperates downtown philly from Mad Max.

I agree, nonetheless this problem still exists, and arming yourself is a solution.

Indeed. They aren't called the great equalizer for nothing.

Wow. Hate crimes are a national epidemic. While influencing more people to get handguns probably escalates the other epidemic that is gun violence, one person getting a gun isn't supposed to be a cure to hate crimes, on a broad scale or personal. It's not really designed to do that, it's designed to stop people from f'ing with you. But also I'm wearing of any person with any chance of incompetency being influenced to get a gun.
