Turning off replies. Too many dinguses making posting threats and incriminating slop. Stay safe!

Genuine message here, coming from a place of respect: don’t post this sort of shit on the internet.

Look into your state firearms laws. Is it licensed carry, constitutional carry? What firearms are legal to own and what permits do you need? Find a local firearms or sporting goods store (in some states/areas). Find your local Socialist Rifle Association chapter and meet up. Safety first always.

Practice, practice, practice. Safety and education.

I’d like to make it very clear, because there are some wild comments floating around.

I am not endorsing any sort of violence. I’m reflecting on the state of our shared communities.

That being said, don’t type stupid shit. Don’t incriminate yourself. Words mean things. Be safe and smart.

It fucking sucks, dude.

There are plenty of places to rent different firearms and get time with an instructor, but to make it easy for you, rifles aren’t crazy useful early on. Learn to maintain and discharge a 9MM pistol safely and go from there.

I hate that they exist. Truly. Wish we could toss every one of them into space.
January 24, 2026 at 7:04 PM
Hell yeah. That attitude is going to pay off for you someday!

You’re making a lot of assumptions about my post.

The Socialist Rifle Association has chapters all around the country. They have a lot of information on good shops to support when able.

I missed something. 😭

556 is cheap but largely unnecessary. If you want a rifle for any potential practical uses look into .300 Blackout.

You never HAVE to. It’s a responsibility to yourself and your community. It’s going to take up some amount of your time. Do what’s best for you.

Practice, practice, practice. practice.

Sometime you gotta swim through shit. Most shops/ranges have an inherently tight lean. Just go there to get what you need (or do your range time) and leave.
