In some states (like where I live), you don’t even need a permit, you can just do it
Where I live, I have to pass an interview with a local police officer
Been meaning to do it, since I already did it once for my regular permit
Somehow, I don’t know if “I don’t trust the local Chuds not so start shit with me” is gonna fly with the guy like “I want to do some target shooting” did

always happy to see more people posting here!
I have a couple more trans memes to post but not that many, maybe I should remake a tumblr to find more lmao.
that’s where all mine came from!
Are you concealed carrying or just happy to see me?
Wouldn’t open carry be a more effective transphobe deterrent?
open carrying my rpg into a walmart
I think a lot of people see open carry as a good deterrent because they’re not ready to actually use a gun to kill someone who’s about to hurt them. And that’s fair. Killing people is taboo for many good reasons. On top of the obvious effects of someone being dead, doing it is not psychologically healthy for the person doing it either. There are other types of weapons that will scare people and don’t massively increase the chance of you dying if someone steals it from you in a fight. There are other strategies for self defense beyond killing people before they can kill you.
Open carry is probably a better deterrent but I generally don’t think it’s a good idea outside of organized demonstrations.
I don’t even have the courage to be openly bi, trans people are the bravest
It’s not really about bravery, more so survival. Like I would literally be dead if I didn’t transition, it’s just what I have to do to live and I have no other option.

Everyone feel gender differently, and transness is just as much of a spectrum as gender. For me transness was realising I’m really just not into gender (I have more of a chaotic/impending vibe than a specific gender), for my friend it was realising he actually did want to be recognised as a man. For some it’s wanting to explore lots of genders, or disliking the idea of being gendered entirely.
Honestly I think there’s a huge portion of the world who are only gendered because of cultural hegemony, and would be nonbinary without social pressure because they just wouldn’t care enough to perform.
no that’s so valid

“…when people questioned his gender, threatening to shoot anyone who suggested he was anything but a man.”
During his time in the army, he was in many ways the ideal of masculinity at the time. Drinking alcohol, sleeping with women, riding horses, and shooting very well.
He had it down pat, apparently
There was a forged birth certificate to prove his gender, as well as a pistol to threaten anyone who questioned his gender.
Hell yeah
I’ve absolutely been thinking about this. There’s no guarantee for our safety moving forward except for the movement. It’s worth it for all of us to learn how to handle firearms.
strap an ak to every bottle of estradiol and the world will be a better place
