So, I went and bought a pistol today. I got a Jiminez 9 mm semi-automatic with jacketed and jacketed hollow point rounds.
This gun is considerably heavier than the one I had many years ago. Though it is a larger caliber. It has a couple of safety features older handguns did not have. Of course there is the safety. Then this weapon will not fire if the magazine is out. Prevents accidents while cleaning or clearing. Has a red tab that sticks out if the weapon is cocked and ready to fire. Plus the slide will not go forward unless you pull back on the slide and release the slide lock simultaneously.
It also came with a trigger lock. I won't need that except when going to the range.
Which is another issue. I need to go to a firing range sometime and get used to this particular weapon. I haven't even handled a handgun in decades.
Going to take a class and get licensed for concealed carry sometime soon.
Haven't felt so great today. Really tired. Not sure why but could have to do with the cannabis oil I took last night. It made me rather depressed and anxious. Strange. I'm not finding that completely negative. I think it lets me understand the mindset of some people better. Though it could also just have to do with the changing weather.
Something I was going to write about last night was that much of my writing lately has focused very much on calming people down. They are so hooked, addicted to fear and anger right now. I am analyzing Trump's policies and winding up defending them. Some of his policies are actually pretty good, while others are not much different from anything Hillary would have done. Those are fairly neutral in the current scheme of things.
What is annoying the crap out of me is that so many people who supported Bernie and Jill are now attacking Trump non-stop without being informed. I am all for protesting specific policies but protesting one person is useless. Besides, I do NOT want to see the election overturned and she winds up in office.
