Reads as if a 12 year old wrote it lol Also the: ☝️🤓 Important distinction permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] shalafi@lemmy.world 1 point 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) You do get it! It's the "great" part that screams elementary-school badass. A more succinct way to put it: "I am a peaceful man. I am not harmless." And you'll notice that real badasses are kind and patient. They know they can wreck your shit with their bare hands, got nothing to prove. LOL, I'm tiny, need an equalizer under my arm. But I never, ever, for ever never, talk shit. Another thought along these lines; Carrying, let alone merely owning, a gun does not make one a badass, or even a threat. It's kind of the opposite, in a weird way. For example; My conceal carry instructor, MAGA 2A kinda dude, told it like this, "If you draw, you shoot to kill, because you've determined that whatever you're trying to stop is worth 20-to-life in a concrete and steel cage, because that might be the outcome." I'm much more careful where I go and what I do while carrying. Ironic, ain't it? permalink fedilink source parent
