Flavor Town Shirt
Dude, it freaks me out too. I have a Flavor Town Shirt enough time taking care of him and making sure his needs are met and I’m 40 with 3 other kids from my ex-wife. Odds are 99% of the time things will go relatively well-enough if her oldest watched our son for an extended period of time by himself. And by that I mean, no injuries (beyond diaper rash or other temporary conditions) or death and his basic needs being taken care of. This kid, the 13 year old, literally turned the stovetop on to make ramen the other day while I was there and went back to his room and closed the door. I had to remind him that his water was boiling 5 minutes later. That’s to be expected, because he’s 13, but I would also expect him to treat our own son with the same irresponsible absentmindedness… What’s additionally worrisome about the situation is that the 13 year old has been spending more time taking care of his middle half-brother, who’s 4 from another father, than their mom has since he was 3 and the oldest being 12. My ex is totally grooming her oldest to be the de-facto parent in her absence while she’s at work and until recently her middle son was being fed nothing but junk food while she was away. It’s turned into a Lord of the Flies situation with her middle son, where the oldest kid is raising him and there just isn’t a lot of actual parenting occurring.

Flavor Town Shirt

I boxed for a Flavor Town Shirt Tae Kwon Do for years and wrestled for years, so it was extremely aggravating how i wasn’t able to use any of that because it was 4v1. I got choked, pistol whipped with a revolver, kicked in the head when i was alr on the ground like a soccer player would kick a ball, kicked in the ribs, punched in the face, etc. It went on for like 30 seconds before some guy yelled “Aye the cops are on their way!” and just like that, they were off, took my shoes off me, and tried to (but failed) to get my watch too before bro came out. I’ve been trying to relocate to a different area, but don’t have the means to right now. I really hate coming off like a histrionic, attention seeking douche that wants to show how macho I am and intimidate people. I’ve conceal carried for awhile ever since I got my rights restored, and it’s even easier now that we have constitutional carry. But recently idk, it’s really been getting to me. Nightmares, flashbacks, intrusive memories, etc. At the expense of people thinking i’m loonier than a tune or some fuckin wanna be cop or John Wick, and rubbing people the wrong way, and even being outright embarrassed that I open carry, I continue to do it often as a trauma response because I want to make sure if/when people see me (more so my former opps) they will automatically know I am armed and will defend myself with my gun if need be. I have a retention holster btw, so someone can’t grab it off me. My situational awareness is top tier because of my PTSD, so much so that someone even getting within a 12 foot radius of me without me knowing is basically impossible. Idk i guess i’m j looking for validation and or opinions, I don’t wanna give all of us gun guys a bad look especially because a lot of CCW and gun guys say you shouldn’t open carry. And for whatever reason, as much as I hate to admit it, it makes me feel safer. Even when I’m in sketchy areas and sketchy people look at me, i get a look not of respect per say but the look of “Ok, this guy is watching my every twitch and breath and is armed, lemme not fuck w him” typa look and i hate that because that’s technically inherently violent but it still makes me feel safer. Can y’all give me your opinions on this? Btw i can be sensitive, so please don’t bully me on here that’s all i ask. thanks.
