    Read the article and you are spot on. She emptied a pistol, through a blackout curtain, at an unseen, unknown target. That is fucking madness. What if it was just kids fucking around?

    Now if I see that curtain so much as twitch, I’m firing.

    If my door explodes off the hinges, I’m firing.

    Threat inside or coming in: FIRE

    Threat outside: Aim and call 911

    Maybe in the moment she experienced more than what we’re getting from the article?

    I disagree that she shouldn’t have one, but this is her first gun and her first week owning it. There’s a steep learning and training curve ahead. If she takes it as seriously as she should.

      A bunch of cops tip toeing around your house getting ready for a raid makes for a pretty unambiguous signal to your amygdala.
