Absolutely. You have to find some balance of being relaxed and being a paranoid nut. I do not consider some things. I don’t think it’s victim blaming really to say you need to be prepared to defend yourself even if it’s not ‘legal (cough)’ and not to think police or anyone else is going to save you if the SHTF. Just have some balance in life or at least try.

Although think you may have made a misstatement:

Again, I am not victim-blaming…the good people who were murdered and injured in Maine are innocent, much like the people in Gaza.

Much like the people in Gaza? I do not consider Hamas and their supporters (most of the adult population) in Gaza to be "innocent." Or did you mean the Israelis butchered by Hamas scum?

Also from Maine earlier this month...

You can now vote in-person absentee statewide ahead of the Nov. 7 election

Concur. I don’t think for a minute you are blaming the victims, but nevertheless, someone armed could have saved many lives.

From the Maine Constitution:

Section 16. To keep and bear arms. Every citizen has a right to keep and bear arms and this right shall never be questioned.

Gotta love that last little bit.

47 percent of adults in Maine have a gun in their home, compared to 14.7 percent in Massachusetts.

Buncha masshole fags.

The people in Israel and Gaza murdered and kidnapped in the Hamas attacks are innocents. Hamas is the Bad Guy.

I disagree that every civilian in Gaza is guilty of crimes committed by Hamas. That’s like saying every American is culpable like Hillary for Ambassador Stevens’ murder in Benghazi.
