This one helped me long time ago. Good mother fucker that never expected a return for what they did, but saved my family's ass when all we had left was this place.
Took him to shoot the AK-KK, and the 9mm, then to outback steakhouse because why not? Kinda fucked him over with the AK-KK as I handed it to him first and not the pistol. Trial by fire I guess, but it is overwhelming to say the least. However he took to the 9mm like a boss.
No pressure just at his own pace, and it is my preferred method of education with firearms. You don't bother with target accuracy for a while as people seem to always fixate on that aspect. It's more of just getting used to it. Knowing what it feels like, how to hold it, and seems that it's intuitive for everyone I ever shown or taken to a range.
I hope he and I can do it again someday. What I can't wait for is the day they tell me "I got a gun of my own"!
Please goats don't be afraid of meeting others from here, but be selective of course. Get to know them....reach out and make an actual connection with a person......this makes 6 I have seen face to face from this place, and I hope there will be more in the future.

"I'm not against self defense from tyranny, I just don't like it"

Who says any of that? Serious question.
Do you have an agenda? Plenty of people I know that dont support disarming anyone, restricting anything, but just dont like guns themselves.
Nothing nefarious at all in that....its called America, and they have the rights same as me. They dont HAVE to have a fucking gun.

Yes, you are right. Thought about what I was saying after and it was a knee jerk reaction. I honestly think I'm one of the least smart people on voat.
I'm sure there are goats that do not like the hobby aspect of guns, which is what I think you are referring to. But I also believe (at least for myself) that understanding the importance of what they represent leads goats to like and respect them for that reason alone.
