Good guy with a gun theory is total bullshit. The few law enforcement people in my life find open carry a complete horror which makes knowing the good guys from the bad guys that much more complex.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I appreciate your efforts, Steph.
I know women in Texas who when shown the statistics of how women with guns are more likely to be the victim of violence from said gun, no matter the training, just looked at me and said “well, not me”.
Tep, I'm sorry your brother is nutty in a not-fun-way
Being in the Bay Area I have access to Super Fancy Artisanal Donuts with Rare and Exquisite Fillings piped in.
They are pretty fucking delicious.
Yeah, but you can't really beat Bob's. [link]
I'm a simple person when it comes to my doughnuts, though. I just want yeasted dusted with granulated sugar. Or maybe an apple fritter. Anything else is overkill (to me).
I mean, presumably the police officer who was killed was armed also.
Yep. And the point above about the police seeing you with a gun. And heck what if there’s multiple good guys with guns and they shoot each other? Are you sure you’ll shoot the right person? Even if you shot a mass murderer are you prepared for knowing you killed someone? Prepared for legal issues that might arise? Ugh.
We had a little presentation in my office and one thing they emphasized was that when/if police arrive to make sure your hands are empty and in plain sight. (Also, our office would be a terrible place to hide - not only is it open, enclosed offices have glass walls, the lights come on when there's any movement in their sensors' range ... they go out if there's no movement for a while as an energy-saving measure.)

Hey, we got apple fritters there on our honeymoon after we had sushi and went to Kozy Kar with you and M.! Damn, those were good.

That was such a good time.
I can't remember the last time I had a doughnut. It would have been at the office, so over a year now.
I've been in meetings all day and I leave for my vaccine appointment in about an hour. Still have no idea which one I'm getting, so I'll spin the wheel of fate.
apparently it is my job to reach out and suggest going places with them, on a weekday, when I should be working. Per my son.
My eyebrows are raised on your behalf, Laura.
The last time I had a donut, I had to make them myself.
