i knew we needed a new gun thread

cigarettes and drunk drivers kill more people anyways,

so wtf

I'm all for the right to own guns... but I'm curious, how does said attacker "know" a victim owns a gun? I know tons of people with guns... none of them have signs on their door saying "I am a redneck mother fucker, back off!"

;-)

You have no fucking clue. My brother's a public defender, and we have talks like this all the time about how he justifies his client's behavior, etc. But the truth of the matter is this; There is NO justifying the mind of a criminal. There is NO rhyme to the reason. There often isn't even a motive. Just dumb people doing stupid things.

Do you really think someone doing something as crazy as killing someone or raping them is really thinking analytically about whether they should maybe figure out if the victim has a gun or not? Do you REALLY think there's much going on in that head?

Most criminals don't think about ANYTHING before they do something.

He said "the first mistake you make when you're an attorney is trying to make sense of what these people do, or have done. There is no rationale behind it."

You got that right. Its just like in car accidents, you hardly ever hear them say, "Everyone was killed and were wearing their seatbelts"

However you always hear, "Everyone was killed and noone was wearing their seat belts"


They only tell what draws in the ratings. Wrongful death draws more crowds than accidently or natural.

I have my CCDW license and keep a gun on me nowdays. With the way these cowards are now days you can't fight your way out. Bringing fist to a gun fight just doesn't work. So I keep atleast one gun on me at all times now. (Hope I don't ever have to use it though)

One of your top posts ever voa.

The Iranian people have no access to guns. Look whats happening to them. all the drooling retards who think guns should be banned should go move there. Freedom is a privilege you do not deserve to have.

I think people should have the right to own guns but I think they also give a false sense of security. First the amount of training needed to be able to get up from a dead sleep to be ready to have a gunfight or the woman getting attacked to be able to react without thinking. Anthony knows this with the martial arts, the reason why one trains constantly is so one doesn't have to think when the moment comes.
Also this rising up against the government, that worked when it was muskets against muskets its a different world. Also having a gun and actually being able to blow someone away are two very different things. its not like a charles bronson movie.

Cheers Tony, it's all in the training. I've been lax in my firearms training due to aspirations of fighting again, I hope to remedy that soon. I have the equivalent training of any federal law enforcement agent with handguns. Everyone should have the right to carry, but I've seen way too many idiots who don't know the first thing of using it in a combat situation. This is my favorite quote when it comes to fighting.

"In a fight, we never rise to our expectations but rather we fall to the level of our training."

Something to think about.

Well said and very true.
