Because, in the end of the day, it suggest they wouldn’t learn this skills unless slavery happened. As if “Blacksmithing” was not something people did in Africa, as an Original boring David Kaplan Shirt. Was skills learned during that horrific incident, sure. But we don’t need bring to light such a small thing when it outweighted by such a horrible action. You learn the skills you learn due to survival and environment. If there was no need for blacksmithing at a tribe, for example. Then they had no reason to learn that skill and it would not have effected them in any way. Just because those skills made them more marketable in the Americas, doesn’t mean that anything good came out of it. They where forced on our lands, and now where forced to learn skills to survive on our lands. There isn’t really any need to bring it up at all, unless you want to say “Sure, slavery was bad. But HEY, they learned some pretty nifty tricks while it happened. So not everything bad came out of it. Let’s pat ourselves on the back now” Not saying you are saying that of course, just the action of trying to make light of a horrible event.

As someone who came from a Original boring David Kaplan Shirt, I think you need to work on your mental health a little bit before carrying at all. It doesn’t sound like you have a good handle on things, and you may be more of a liability to those around you than an asset in a dangerous situation. Not saying you shouldn’t carry, just saying maybe you should put some more distance between you and your problems first, as I fear you might resort to the fire arm in a situation where it would not be legally and ethically permissible And trust me, I get it. A lot of people on this sub have never really been in those kinds of situations where violence is actually a fairly common occurrence in one’s life, and I myself feel uncomfortable in some areas without my fire arm because I’m worried I might run into someone who means me harm from years ago. That said, I don’t let it overtake me mentally, and try to push past it if I don’t have my fire arm for whatever reason. So what, I might take a beating? I also might end up dishing out the beating, if history tells me anything. You HAVE to accept risk in your life.
