I have a blood relative whom I love dearly, but wouldn’t trust with any information ‘bout my guns or medical records. He has an authoritarian streak a mile wide, and hates the idea of private gun ownership (not that he knows anything about guns — he just hates ‘em). He’d be the first to “red flag” someone if he thought he could contrive a believable story to tell the police. And whether that story was factual or complete fantasy wouldn’t make a bit of difference to him.
Nor would it make any difference to the police. The complaint, or report will be all they need.
(I will no longer accept the things I cannot change. It’s time to change the things I cannot accept.)
I’m just lovin’ your tag line- very inspiring!
Sad tale,
FRiend.
