Grim night, let's put this into perspective ~ from you own posts, your entire family is and has been dysfunctional your entire life.Why on earth do you believe this incident is any different than the other situations which have arisen in your past and i hope you understand they will likely continue in your future.
by your own admission, this is not your father's home. apparently you even lack foresight into your father's living situation since: quote " I hadn't eve seen them before entering the house..." (sic) & "I was there helping my father to bring things in from the car." unquote
did you drop your father off at some type of adult caregiving facility? But as you state, it is not your father's home and as has been stated out here, everyone has their own house rules.
since this is this apparently new behaviour from your father who is now living with this 'couple'? is he paying for room and board? have they taken him in as a favor to the state to preclude your father walking the streets with a shopping cart and sleeping under bridges and eating at soup kitchens?
personally, i would be worried about your father's living arrangements since you flat out state he relayed a significant message to you about his concern for his well being: quote "He feels that he doesn't want his life to be threatened by other people that may see me with my firearm and may decide to do me harm and him getting caught in the crossfire..." unquote
if those are his exact words and not not something you believe he said, they should not be taken lightly by anyone as those are not words spoken by a father to his son just to get the son to quit OC'g. hey son knock off the OC'g while at so and so's house, or grim i have been asked by my caregiver to ask you not to OC while here, etc. Not, oh i fear for my life and worried about the exchange of lead between everyone!!
finally, if you discern he is in a save haven and you 'misheard' his comment and you have a semi amiable relationship, why in the world are you being so sensitive at this juncture? this is s singular comment and possibly should be taken as your breath stinks, you look horrible, etc., and quit brooding on the comments since he is living in someone else's home which you now know you are not welcome in 'with your gun'!!
bottom line, quit your bellyaching and ask your father why the change of heart but me thinks there is more than meets the eye, eh Grim?
