There was nobody waiting to bust balls about it because it just wouldn’t be an issue. No one would think to bring one. Man up.

My wife is still an agent and an FI. She had to use an FFDO class as Guinea pigs while she was getting her FI cert. she still laughs about the one guy whose job it was to hand out bandaids to the other students due to slide bites etc. My favorite story is the guy who pinned epaulets to his smurf shirt and made everyone refer to him as Captain. Not. Even. Joking.
Can’t say “man up” to this generation.

I tried to say the same thing, but these kids want to be coddled today.

But I agree. Didn’t think this conversation would devolve into such a level of ridiculousness.

Bullet blisters. If you can’t handle a few you prolly shouldn’t be carrying a gun in the first place...
