Meijer doesn't sell anymore, and Walmart went to shotguns only around me.

matches are genuinely inclusive, and homo-/transphobes are not welcome.

This is important to me. I am CIS white guy, but too often when someone is wearing shit like "fuck your feelings/let's go Brandon" and "your body my choice" and nobody says anything, but the moment you speak up you get shit for "starting something" and "making a scene" and of course good luck reminding that crowd what happens when someone like THEM makes a scene, people end up dead.

Yeah, those $500+ classes don't bother me with their time investment but holy shit I guess it's just too expensive to help people.... My account has under 400 until I can find a new job that doesn't have so much down time between contracts..

I would happily attend the WFR classes, especially since I go mountain biking, hiking, fishing, etc in the woods and know from experience a fun day riding a bike 20 miles from the road can quickly turn south when a carbon fiber part snaps and slices an artery. Luckily someone had a tourniquet in their bag and the bleeding was stemmed until EMT got there.... Eventually.

I'm sure they're better for a variety of first aid than the TCCC-CLS is, but both sound like they would be worth doing nowadays.

Yikes. That's scary as shit. I'm sorry to hear that. I hope that you can find something soon. I've been there--it's been a while, thankfully--and there's just nothing good about it.
