Yeah he's the best, and you're right. Be careful btw, .22lr is just as deadly as any other caliber and is also still pretty cool for someone sheltered away from them, that teaching and hunting will likely be more effective and remove the mystery.
Ah yeah that puts a damper on the alarm for sure lol.
Oh ok I can see it now.
And well good there's no posted signage, likely (depending on state) that means their ban has no teeth and is only actionable by firing which of course still sucks but it's better than dying. Hell, you're lucky you can WFH, I'd just do that as often as possible anyway haha.
Yup, WFH is great. Company policy is 3 days in office, but we're discussing for our department to go back to 2. We also have a department culture of WFH being viable with even a small excuse (e.g. waiting for an important package is sufficient), so something like "I don't feel safe because worker X got fired" would absolutely be acceptable.
And yeah, I know .22lr is deadly, but it has low enough recoil that I can teach even young kids to use it (three under 10), and basic gun safety should be enough to keep it from becoming lethal (don't look down the barrel, don't point at people, etc). Our family gun rules will be very simple: if you touch the gun without permission, you lose shooting privileges. And even if I store it in the attic (they'd need to move a heavy ladder to get to it), I'll keep it secured with a trigger lock and only store ammo separately in a safe (not very secure, but better than nothing).
One day I hope to carry a handgun because I want to be prepared. But preparedness is more than personal safety, it also includes safety for my job and kids. So either the gun would always be with me (impractical), I need to trust my kids (I don't), or it needs to be secure (haven't found a lock I trust). Maybe in a few years.

Hell yeah sounds like a good plan.
