      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.
