I got a message from someone who's struggled with suicide and as a result doesnt want to own guns, but still advocates arming the left. They asked to make a post for those who cant/dont want to own guns and I think it's a really valuable conversation
If you cant own a gun due to legal restrictions, mental health, nowhere to safely store (dorms, abusive households), or financial strain, there is NOTHING wrong with that. It isnt a decision you should make lightly, and it doesnt mean you cant still be pro-gun
If you still want to learn to shoot, you can always (depending on the state) go to a range. Then you wont have to bring a gun home but you can still get hands-on practice.

You dont need to own a gun to be a valuable part of this movement.
See it this way - if your comrades have guns, then you already do too if there ever comes a time where they NEED to be used.
Do what is the most safe for you and your situation
Here is a GREAT thread someone replied with about options for those who are
uncomfortable or unable to have gun ownership https://twitter.com/IronProle/status/1298668945117810691?s=20
