"They're afraid the police aren't going to be able to protect them and they're going to be overrun," Cummins says. "And we've seen a lot of first-time (gun owners) and people who have no experience with a firearm."

He believes the rise in sales is not from those fearing a crackdown by a new administration in Washington, because most gun owners he's talked to believe President Donald Trump will easily win re-election.

"They're afraid the police aren't going to be able to protect them and they're going to be overrun,"

Overrun by who?

[rktman]

Well the virus of course. I’d use bird shot in a 12 gauge myself.

[uranium penguin]

it is not the JOB of Police to protect individuals.

A cop is not going to miraculously appear out of nowhere just in time and put themselves between a shooter/ a stabber and the victim.

When seconds count the police are ONLY minutes away.

“Overrun by who?”

After last nights looting everyone knows that answer. The majority of my wifes girl friends all have guns now.

Crazy patients who stalk them after hours. No joke. I’ve worked in hospitals and work in one now. Lots of nurses, many of them young women, single and married have had nightmarish encounters with crazy male patients stalking them. ER nurses and techs only use their first name on the ID badge every hospital worker is made to wear. The hospital I work in has armed security.

I’ve been using that meme for years.

Okay, thanks.

Why would nurses in Saint Louis possibly want to own a firearm?? Can someone help me out here???

[Gay State Conservative]

Norwegians?

Only if gun owners show up in large numbers. Let’s not get complacent, especially with all of the fraud that we KNOW is going to occur. Get out and vote - and make sure that anyone in your family who has, unfortunately, passed away since the last election is removed from the voter rolls (I made sure that my mother did that for my father, as I know that he would never have wanted to vote for Obama’s re-election).

Fyi, birdshot is unsuitable for home & self defense beyond a FEW FEET.

As a retired LEO, I prefer #4 buckshot.

Overrun by the usual suspects...the perfect voter demo, wink, wink, nod, nod.

[rktman]

A lot of folks never thought Trump was going to win either.

I’m talking about virus killin’. Some viruses just need killin’.

My wife just recently got her concealed carry permit, and a brand new pistol to go with it.

I know this guy. He’s a fellow NRA-certified instructor.

> The hospital I work in has armed security

And if I visit, they have even more armed security than they think.

It’s just one reason to get a CC permit in MO. It removes being able to be charged with a misdemeanor in most No Guns places.

A great piece of work by our great legislature and former governor, who was politically murdered by Josh Hawley and the MO RINOs. Josh is talking a good job as a real conservative, but he did a bad thing.

If you’re a CC holder Jersey isn’t the place for you. The Rats who run this state hate the 2A.
