Title: Let's see where it goes

Opening or closing with a question prompts further discussion. Don't you think?

Why is not a question but an accusation.

Nonsensical fucks can be fun as long as they don't expect to taken seriously.

I'm a gun carrying pacifist

^^^thats an interesting statement, because for many, many yrars i was a complete pacifist.

pacifism doesnt mean not opposing things, it just means not using coercion to impose your will on others.

i still follow that philosophy, but i no longer carry it to the logical conclusion of nonresistance to violence.

i indeed carry a weapon, and have one loaded and cocked at this very moment six inches beneath my right elbow as i sit in the car waiting for the boys to return from a hike in a maine nature preserve.

im not expecting to have to use deadly force to defend myself, but then nobody ever is.

and the vireos are singing
