Conrad73: There comes a time in every man’s life, when he stops bustin’ knuckles and starts bustin’ caps; usually it’s when he stops being stupid. I learned that in the military very early; using your hands just hurts your hands. With weapons comes responsibility, regardless whether it is one’s fists, baseball bat, auto, newspaper or soda straw. Laugh not, the last two are very lethal and silent.
God created people; Sam Colt made them equal.

* I don’t carry a gun to kill people. I carry a gun to keep from being killed.
* I don’t carry a gun to scare people. I carry a gun because sometimes this world can be a scary place.
* I don’t carry a gun because I’m paranoid. I carry a gun because there are real threats in the world.
* I don’t carry a gun because I’m evil. I carry a gun because I have lived long enough to see the evil in the World.
* I don’t carry a gun because I hate the government. I carry a gun because I understand the real limitations of government.
* I don’t carry a gun because I’m angry. I carry a gun so that I don’t have to spend the rest of my life hating myself for failing to be prepared.
* I don’t carry a gun because I want to shoot someone. I carry a gun because I want to die at a ripe old age in my bed, and not on a sidewalk somewhere tomorrow afternoon.
* I don’t carry a gun because I’m a cowboy. I carry a gun because, when I die and go to heaven, I want to be a cowboy.
* I don’t carry a gun to make me feel like a man. I carry a gun because men know how to take care of themselves and the ones they love.
* I don’t carry a gun because I feel inadequate. I carry a gun because unarmed and facing three armed thugs, I am inadequate.
* I don’t carry a gun because I love it. I carry a gun because I love life and the people who make it meaningful to me.
* Personally, I carry a gun because I’m too young to die and gave up being stupid years ago.


Never carried a gun in civilian life and I'm still alive

galrads: Sharon Tate lived in a big house?
Are you telling me that you would not use any means including a gun in self defense of your life or property? Oh, maybe you believe the police will be there when you ned them? It does happen I guess. Tell Sharon Tate.
for those us that know a little about Manson. he was trying to start a race war. nothing more.

demonfairy: You will find that most people have some form of gun in there home,but they don't go around shooting people.The honest man has every right to have a gun,Why should the the criminals be the only ones to have them.Where im living now there are a lot of farms,lots of deer,wild turkeys,rabbits,squirrels,etc.They have a certain time of year for the hunters to kill these for food,plus to keep population down of these animals.There are so many deer,that people total there cars when the deer jump in front of them with out warning.I myself lost a car two years ago when a deer jumped in front of me,i missed the first one couldn't miss the second,So guns have there usefulness,there not just used to rob,and kill people.My opion only


I think people missed your point entirely. I feel the same way you do. We don't have guns around here to kill one another. We use them to hunt food. We also use them as means of protection against wildlife.....bear, mountain lion, wild dogs, etc.

Why would I need a handgun where I live at if all I want to do is hunt? Well, when I go hiking or riding horses, the rifle is just too big to pack. You can place a handgun on your hip, some in your pocket depending how they are designed, then if you run into anything threatening, such as bear, mountain lion, wild dogs, etc. you are protected. Mace just pisses them off.

Guns are used for more than killing people. A lot of you have a hard time understanding that because you are not accustomed to different lifestyles. Stay one day at my home and you will understand why we need our guns.

galrads: tates with right-to-carry laws have lower overall violent crime rates, compared to states without right-to-carry laws. In states whose laws respect the citizen's right-to-carry guns for self defense the total violent crime is 13% lower, homicide is 3% lower, robbery is 26% lower and aggravated assault is 7% lower. (Data: Crime in the United States 1996, FBI Uniform Crime Reports)

Here's a reference start .....


Hm... According to this for example Arizona has 4th most homicides per 100,000.

They don't understand the Concept of a Firearm as a Tool,and that it is really nobody's Business what Tools I own!
