i c ant beleive how some of my friends voted
this chat went well...it was controversial so i am surprised
I liked how the conversation seemed natural and I was given the freedom to respond in a way I saw fit.
Everything worked well, thank you!

thank you. i'm just really worried. my neighbor is a single woman. last month her boyfriend beat her up and she called the police. it took 35 minutes to respond i have an 8 year old daughter and five year old twin boys. i want to protect my children from harm

You are welcome. That is really kind of you to want to protect your children from harm. It seems like you feel the best way to do this is through owning guns? Have you thought of any alternatives, since the votes have been cast?

what alternative? the police are so backed up everywhere they can't respond fast enough. they should be our first line of defense here in the us against bad guys but that doesnt happen or they ccant always be trusted to respond quickly and efficiently so i feel we have to take it upon ourselves. if someone were to break in and has a gun.... i mean.. criminals dont get guns the legal way anyway you know. what should i do...throw a knife at them? lol

That is a good point you bring up about the quickness and efficiency of protection that guns can provide. How you thought of any other alternatives that could help your family, regarding the process of obtaining guns during a Biden presidency?

not a clue. do you have any suggestions?
user

Definitely! My first step would be understanding the gun policy that Biden would have and confirming the new process. Does that sound like something that could be a good starting point?

I think you are just being careful and protective of your family. That is very honorable of a veteran like yourself.
