There's also a Life Alive in Lowell. I think it was their first location.

I wonder if constitutional carry has prevented any situations like this before in recent memory.

The Salem Witch Museum, at least the main exhibit, is about the witch trials specifically.

Did you do traditional talk therapy or something more structured like CBT exposure? Glad you’re doing well!

I think it is sending Reddit a message that a user needs help. It has happened to me in the past. I received a messages front ‘Reddit’ that said a concerned user reported I was in distress. There’s an option somewhere, I can’t remember where off the top of my head, that you can anonymously report that someone on Reddit has expressed that they need help or that they are suicidal or depressed.

I suppose you can’t treat them yourself even though you’re a psychologist.

This is so scary. I had a friend working there and they closed the gate. I worked at Holyoke in the early 00’s and I never could have imagine something like this happening. The gun violence sucks. The victim didn’t deserve this.

Cold plunging? As in jumping into 20 degree water regularly on purpose?

Diners in and around Lowell National Historical Park. Arthur's Paradise Diner on Bridge Street even serves traditional mill worker sandwiches.
There's a large variety of more typical 50's style diners for example Four Sisters Owl Diner. One could make a study. They're interesting to see from the outside once you've had enough to eat.
Of course the mills were still operating in the 50's so the park has some worthwhile exhibits. Come on a nice day and walk around, lots of 50's architecture like https://www.google.com/maps/@42.644723,-71.3136828,3a,36.2y,341.93h,95.74t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1s2_C5B3_S00wMvQ4izfrKDg!2e0!6shttps:%2F%2Fstreetviewpixels-pa.googleapis.com%2Fv1%2Fthumbnail%3Fpanoid%3D2_C5B3_S00wMvQ4izfrKDg%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.tactile.gps%26w%3D203%26h%3D100%26yaw%3D214.984%26pitch%3D0%26thumbfov%3D100!7i16384!8i8192

I've lived in New England all of my life. I love seeing old pictures from the area and am always amazed how much land was clear cut 100 years ago.

Seems like someone got shot and killed with a gun, according to the article at least. If the laws prevented these deaths, like we’re told they will. Would this have still happened? 🤔
Because we’re trading a constitutional amendment for the promise that gun laws will prevent tragedies such as these. We’ve given up much of our 2a rights but they haven’t held up their end of the bargain and stopped these tragedies from happening. Which means these laws don’t work or politicians are lying.(insert shocked face here)
Hell I expect someone to get on tv within the next 48 hours and talk about creating more gun laws because of this. Despite their current gun laws not working hence here we are commenting on an article about another mall shooting.
Even the Holyoke mall doesn’t allow weapons but what they are doing in reality is disarming law abiding people while allow this shooter easy and helpless targets many of which are our friends, family and neighbors.
“No Weapons Allowed The possession of any weapon, other than by law enforcement personnel, is prohibited.”

I would go in the summer on dates (from Quincy) every now and then. There’s like 4 worthwhile restaurants. Lines do suck in October it all depends what time of the month you go.

Actually I think Salem is best in Summer, it’s beautiful and right on the water! October in Salem is near pointless unless you want to stand in line and see hundreds and hundreds of people in modern witch hats.

Let’s see if there’s any real world situations where someone who wasn’t carry, happened to be carrying due to constitutional carry. Same situation happened gunman opened fire only this time the outcome was different. A law abiding gun owner put him down because he lives in a state that doesn’t infringe on our constitutional freedoms. Don’t believe me? Here’s the link! https://www.indystar.com/story/news/crime/2022/07/18/elisjsha-dicken-identified-as-man-who-killed-greenwood-park-mall-suspsect/65375869007/
Well regulated- It means maintained. Like my balls are well regulated because I wash them everyday. Additionally curbing the 2a due to “public safety” was ruled unconstitutional vis the heller decision. So it would probably help you as a law abiding gun owner to get familiar with SCTOUS and the law of the land. MA could use this advice as well.
“ District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570 (2008), is a landmark decision of the Supreme Court of the United States. It ruled that the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution protects an individual's right to keep and bear arms—unconnected with service in a militia—for traditionally lawful purposes such as self-defense within the home.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/District_of_Columbia_v._Heller
