Personally I don't think disabled people should have guns, and that's coming from a disabled person. Can I ask why you think that? Do you don't like guns in general or is there a specific reason?

I blame movies. People see it in movies where the hero shoots the bad guy but takes one in the shoulder and then is laughing and joking in the back of an ambulance at the end. Stuff looks feasible so people think they can do it, too. That's why we have a generation of people that believe "silencers" allow you to shoot a gun in one room while people in another room are completely unaware. Or they think they can crawl through ventilation ducts to get around a building. Both are physical impossibilities in the real world. I hunt deer and have a very fancy hunting rifle that I mount to my chair that I can hit a paper plate from a quarter mile away with some ease. But that's a paper target. Real world hunting conditions with adrenaline pumping and the inevitable self-doubt and the million other little things that you don't get on the target range make that a far more difficult shot. Shit NEVER works out how you practiced it. Just give them your wallet and cancel your cards when you get home.

I’m about to apply for a permit but in my county it’s almost impossible to get. Guess I’ll just sell my .45 and buy a small 9mm to carry without a permit

I'm sorry but in my opinion the whole knife and car thing are so stupid.
I use a knife to cut my food.
I use a car to get from A to B
A Guns whole use is to shoot something, whether for the good or the bad.
Yes, there is murders and accidents through these things but their main use isn't as a weapon whereas a gun is. I understand things in America are different but that's my point of view.
