I grew up in Texas with a rifle on my
sholder and a pistol on my hip. I served 8 years in the US Army and
for 30 months I earned my wage killing the enemy to keep them from
killing me, my men, my pilots and my friends and often to prevent
them from preventing my and 5 other helicopters from loading 42 and
often more men and move them out of danger. When I returned home I
carried a .45 cal. Pistol on my front seat for the approaching
Officer to see and request to examine when he stopped me.
Before I went to Vietnam I murdered a
lot of Coke Can and a few non-refundable bottles as I sharpened my
skills... oh, and a couple of Rattle Snakes I'm sure because in Texas
we eat them and a couple might have lived... I couldn't find them
when I dismounted. After I came home I will admit to picking the 45
up off the seat and pointing it at the roof of my car when one Yankee
waqs going to “teach me how to drive” in downtown Houston. I
couldn't have shot him, he was out of range before I could stop
laughing.
When the new Yankee Texans managed to
join the, up 'til then, out voted Texans against one defending
themselves and managed the, squeeky, vote to change the law I sold
that pistol and bought a .38 to keep in my house. Point? I'm tired!

I'm tired of intentional
ignorance! Knee Jerk reactions are the source of stupid decisions
and that is what is happening in this nation... right now! I just
saw on FNC that the murder rate with the AR 15 is less than .07% of
the murdered. Now, in Australia the population density is less than
in the US. (To the best of my knowledge.) The numbers of per capita
murdered is just .02% over the 1% difference and in the US we have
the right to carry a concealed hand gun in many places.

we find that the law arming the citizens has made a remarkable
difference in their Crime Rate, it still looks to be falling proving
that guns protect people and that cowards kill people.
Just food for thought.
