    Do something the Jews had little opportunity to do, arm your self.

      And practice. Safety and fighting under pressure takes practice.

      There are so very few trans people, and so many more of us.

        This is seriously good advice. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast. Muscle memory may well save you or some one else’s life one day

          Hey! Found a bit of muscle memory the other day!

          Always carry in the woods, sometimes throw down on squirrels for muscle memory. Not like I’ve trained, mostly random, “You should see if you can actually draw and aim.”, kinda practice.

          Cool! Deer?

          Pistol magically appeared in my hand, safety off, low-ready.

          Didn’t think about it. That was neat. Didn’t know if that would happen when the shit came down.

      I can’t afford a gun, and if I could, it would not be something I could keep in my home.

        I didn’t say a gun. Of course that is probably the tool for defense against the jack booted thugs coming for those who dare to be different, but there are other devices. Prepare for a world where no one is going to save you.
