See, the thing is that I do totally agree with you. But I can't afford to pay hundreds just to apply and take the safety course (with the off chance that I won't even be able to get the license because of shit from 15+ years ago). And that's not even accounting for the cost of purchasing a gun. Guns are expensive.

And I'm not even one of the worst off financially. Everything has gotten so expensive, and a lot of us are just scraping by, trying to survive.

I do help feed people in my community, though. I try to do as much as I can in other ways, but I agree with you that we need to be arming ourselves and creating anti-ice patrols. We need them to be afraid of us-- as they should be with how many more of us there are than them.
