Mass shooting 35 miles from Portland, Maine

[ilikegunspdx]

back in the day when i bowled, i didn't even carry a wallet on me when i stepped to the line
maybe one would carry in their bowling bag, but not in their clothing when they're on the line

hmm I wonder if one of these would fit ina bowling bag. Headshots easily doable at any range within bowling alley.

Pretty frigging awful

FYI, some of the links appear to be to a different person compared with what is being reported by some outlets, DOB off by a year and a day and different middle name on the sex offender link.

I don't bowl....but I do like beer. I don't tend to do much that doesn't involve hunting, fishing or other outdoor activities. I don't like crowds or being around folks I don't know. I have a small but close group of friends....guess I'm kinda a recluse

I don't bowl. And I don't drink. And I avoid highly congested/crowded areas if possible. Lol.

Last time I went bowling for a friends birthday party I carried the whole time.

I carry at work, I carry during entertainment events, I carry at family get togethers. I carry anytime I'm outside the house. And when I'm inside a gun is always close.

People can call me paranoid. Whatever. Lol.

your right
but when one is keeping score and watching your team mate pick up a spare, your not watching the door behind you when a nut job comes in and shoots one in the back, as happened in Maine

That's not paranoid. It is prepared. Plain and simple.

you must live a different life style and have different family and friends than I
my neighbors don't allow carry when grand kids are on the property or in the house

They still haven't caught the guy. Apparently he has military training and is a local. Rural area in Lisbon Falls Maine is where they're looking for him.

If you carry correctly no one will know.

I got plenty of friends/family who hate guns/concealed carry. Their political stance means nothing to me.

When children are around its more of a reason to carry...protect the innocent that can't protect themselves. My firearm comes off when I go to bed....I even carry into federal buildings

and offend the polite request of your neighbors?
we don't do that out here on rural properties, have respect for our neighbors
you offend them once with a firearm when grand kids around and you spend the rest of your life sitting alone on your porch

When people call CCW paranoid its gaslighting. Paranoia is an unreasonable fear of something that doesn't exist.
Even if it has a low probability crime does exist, and the consequences of being unprepared for it has a high probability of being deadly.

I'd say your "priorities" in regards to fun vs. safety are a bit backwards.

Or maybe I'm the odd ball. The minute I enter a location/room I look for entrances/exits. I look at everyone in the room to get a generalization of who may be an issue and who is passive. Look at hands/body language. Watch who comes in and who goes out. Ideally sitting somewhere with my back to the wall so I can watch everything.

It's become second nature.

I'm always looking around and never complacent when I'm out in a crowd. I have little trust in my fellow man.

There house there rules....I respect family, friends and neighbors wishes. I will just choose not to go there or be around them

I grew up in a rural/country town. I don't need a lecture. You're free to make whatever choice for whatever reason you like.

You can bet LEVO will be using this for an AW ban in 2024

Sadly yes. Or a mag ban. This is one of the worse ones too.. a mag ban may be brewing.

What's wrong with sitting alone on the porch? It allows you some peace & quiet and avoids encounters with judgmental short-sighted people like your neighbors.
