Another post from my second favorite site.

This is self defense training as a story and I thought unusual for a prepper website.

What would happen if Patton were at a rampage shooting like the Batman movie in Colorado.

Long article and I posted the whole thing. It makes more sense if you go to the site and see the pictures. I love the Colt quote....he should have put John Mose Browning's picture in as well since there is a 1903 Colt Pocket model in the story. Is it Mose or Moses?

When the cops finally arrived, George had his hands on his head and stated loudly. “Bad guy is dead. I shot the pansy bastard. My pistol is in my waistband. What are your orders?”

In Patton’s time, people would not have dared this crap.

They knew that, if caught, they would not even have made it alive to the police station.

What if Napoleon had a fleet of B-52 Bombers at Waterloo?

Patton learned guerrilla tactics from probably the best one ever, John Singleton Mosby. Mosby was a frequent house guest of the Pattons when they were in California. Mosby was a lawyer for the railroad.

Patton proved he could stand and fight during the Pershing expedition into Mexico. Patton using his single action revolver killed two of the Mexican bandit’s leaders. This was a classic old west shoot out, both men were armed.

Patton then strapped their bodies to his car’s fenders and drove to General Pershing’s headquarters with them sort of like what some deer hunters do.

So yes the probability that Patton would have shot it out with him is high. Patton competed in the Olympics in the Pentathlon which includes pistol shooting. He would have won except two of his bullets went through the same hole and one was not counted.

Patton would have pulled out his Ivory handled pistol and shot the bastard.

Whenever I think of Patton or "What Would Patton Do?", my mind goes back to the Senate hearing when Barbara Boxer told that General, who kept calling her 'Ma'am', something like "General, please call me Senator. I worked hard to get that title." The general said "Yes, Senator".

I picture Patton sitting slouched back in his chair with his legs crossed and slowly answering her, with a smiling grin, "AS YOU WISH,...... BITCH".

I concur with the premise of the story.
I affirm, that it is the responsibility of every American,
to obtain a firearm that they can shoot well, know what
makes it tick, and understand their responsibilities,
as an owner of a firearm.

It is not the duty, nor the divine right, of politicians to
deny you any action of self preservation.
