Could you expand on the gun part like what encourages you to go that route? No judgement in either direction. I'm interested because my concern that I would need to be armed stemmed more from if he lost. Since he would have gotten up there and told his base it was cheating and tried to mobilize them towards violence.
I don't anticipate that kind of violent behavior from the other side, so just curious on your perspective.
Any reason is reason enough if you ask me. Never hurts to have a new option. Good luck to you, friend.
