minus-squareshalafi@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up10·22 hours agoI sure felt better at Saturday’s protest. 2,000 people there, in the reddest part of Florida, and that wasn’t the main protest. Just kept saying, “Thank god thank god. Had no idea there were so many sane people around here.” And BTW, I conceal carried my Colt .45. What a heavy PITA. The gun pictured (Beretta 92FS) is my next pistol!
