2. And I'd be willing to bet those racing to purchase weapons

didn't have to sacrifice overblown food budgets or concert tickets, healthcare insurance payments, beer/drug/tobacco purchases, or their monthly rent or mortgage payments, nor TP nor their NRA memberships(?), perhaps, to get their first gun or one of their multiple choices from unsecured, irresponsible storage at home...I fail to see how their false bravado of ownership, concealed or not, nor their conviction of confidence that they would stand triumphant in their "next" shootout, keeps them any safer...

All praise for plastic debt to ward off fear one minimum payment at a time!
