newoldstock, there is a huge difference in me carrying a pistol daily over me punching a button for a nuke war. gimmie a break man, damn, its ok if you dont carry, I sure hope the day never comes to you that you wish you did.
and I know next you will say "I'm x amount of years old and never needed one yet" and I'll respond with "do you wear a seatbelt when your in your car prepared for the crash that may never come, but prepared for it anyways."
Understand, this is a different world we live in, its not safe anymore and its proven daily. be ready or become a victim, either way, its ok with me, I choose to be ready, and none of your liberal pansy mindless babbling will get me to change my mind.
Think about this.
You have a gun and I do...
I suspect you have a gun and want your wallet.
May as well stay 5 steps behind you, shoot you in the back of the head and then take your wallet and your gun.
Safest way to rob you in my book....
If I suspect the probility of you having a gun is low I might just threaton you, take your wallet and let you live.
You may try and wrestle me.
I am probably younger and faster and one or both of use die.
Or you get lucky and kill me first.
Lots of ifs there.
I just as soon not see anyone carry a gun around me unless they are police.
And don't call me a liberal.
You have no idea what I am.
You realy want to get into politics I am a socialist ( I make a distinction ).
I am the kind of solcialist that thinks its quite reasonable to own guns and protect your family within the confines of your home.
I just think its pointless to pack a pistol in public, and maybe even more dangerous.
A seatbelt is not a hand gun.
My world more or less exactly the same as it was last week or last month.
Its safer today than it was ten years ago, and safer still than it was the thirty previous before.
If your place of residence is that dangerous, you need to move.
I stand a better chance of being hit by car.
I am more likely to be crushed in an accident at work.
I will probably die of lung cancer before lead poisoning.....
Why are you scared and who is trying to scare you?
Are you man or a frightened child?
If your a man hold your head up high and step out into the real world of uncertainty where cars and lung cancer and giant slabs of rock are more likely to kill you.
