Nomadac,
EXCELLENT POINT!!
moto-d,
My grandfather had to use a firearm in self-defense TWICE in his lifetime. Dad NEVER took his pistol out of its holster unless it was to clean or fire it. Uncle Bill had to draw his weapon after an idiot suffering from severe road-rage tried to intimidate him with a shotgun 2 YRS ago(BAD MOVE!!). ALL of these incidents occurred within 30 miles of where I'm sitting( rural S. Central Indiana). I DO NOT "swagger" about while I carry. It is my prayer that I NEVER have to use it, but as Dad used to say 'It's better to have one and NOT need it than to need one and NOT HAVE IT!' You are entitled to your opinion even if it's based on progressive liberal positions. BTW, do YOU know WHY the 2nd Amendment is in the Constitution or are you one of those that believes it sanctions the National Guard?
