    If you knew that 95 % of the rest of the people you encounter were not armed , would you still feel you need to carry a gun ?

    Their leader is the enemy of freedom not the country. No one in the world has the balls to attack the US head on. best anyone can do is a 911 type plot.

    It's sport for me.

    Target shooting.

    Gaining proficiency with a firearm is no different than honing your golf game.

    It just happens to be a form of protection as well...

    no we have guns so it's not on the table. if we elect more anti gun politicians, it can turn into libya

    Harden your bark, there are storms on the horizon.
    never needed a firearm to protect my person, but I live in a fairly rural area. I would pack if I lived in Cleveland or Detroit.

    Yes. We have seen an increasing amount of vehicle and home invasions in our area.

    I have a .38 special for concealed carry.

    I am on the road for work at 2:30 am and have had a few "interesting" encounters in the middle of the night.

    Not had to use it yet.

    But I also put my seat belt on every time not expecting to get in an accident...

    Of course it helps.

    ANY money coming in from outside the borders is gravy. Please keep it flowing...
