Welcome to the War and Citizenship, brother.
He’s beyond “fool”.
I’m ex-military and have been around guns my whole life. My wife on the other hand hates them. So out of respect for her intolerance, I never brought any into our home for the first 15 years of marriage.
Now it’s her turn to get OK with what I feel are necessary preparations. We’ve had some difficult discussions, as I will not hide them from her and want to be honest.
She will not touch them, nor will she educate herself by going to the range with me. I tell her it’s a shame to have the tools to protect our children, but not the knowledge needed to do so.
I do think she sees the dark place we’re all heading toward at breakneck speed. Where we differ is on how quickly we’ll arrive, and what arriving means.
