Patriot Bump!

[GonzoGOP]

The gun is the only personal weapon that puts a 100-pound woman on equal footing with a 220-pound mugger, a 75-year old retiree on equal footing with a 19-year old gang banger, and a single guy on equal footing with a carload of drunk guys with baseball bats. The gun removes the disparity in physical strength, size, or numbers between a potential attacker and a defender.

God created all men. Sam Colt made them equal.

With all due respect, this essay is properly attributed to Marko Kloos of the Munchkin Wrangler Blog and has become quite legendary for the number of times it has been reprinted under the Major Caudill name, including an appearance in toto in one of Ted Nugent's books.

Excellent points!

Something that needs to be shouted from the rooftops.

Consider the fact that places were the Law-abiding are forcibly disarmed are more dangerous and crime ridden than places were one has the ability to defend oneself.

Of course, the gun-grabbing socialists don't care about facts and logic – if they did, they wouldn't be gun-grabbing socialists in the first place.

BINGO! And the liberal 'distaste' for firearms tells you, more than anything else, that the left is NOT interested in individual freedom, in any way, shape, or form. The left is focused on group politics, and government power, pure & simple...
