Safety

I have never been so close to a gun, I imagined myself holding it, taking it out of it's black leather holster, and aiming it between my eyes. It must be heavy, to carry so much destruction in your hands. I wondered if they'd ever killed anyone, if they'd abused that power. I wanted to hold it, feel it's cold heart. I wanted to use my second amendment but I didn't know how. All my gun knowledge was from the movies and TV shows. There was something about removing the safety...I'll remember that.
