jblosser Posted October 24, 2011 Report Share Posted October 24, 2011 Repost from another site.Why Carry a Gun? My Grandpa said to me 'Son, there comes a time in every man's life when he stops bustin' knuckles and starts bustin' caps and usually it's when he becomes too old to take an butt whoopin.'I don't carry a gun to kill people.I carry a gun to keep from being killed.I don't carry a gun to scare people.I carry a gun because sometimes this world can be a scary place.I don't carry a gun because I'm paranoid.I carry a gun because there are real threats in the world. I don't carry a gun because I'm evil.I carry a gun because I have lived long enough to see the evil in the world. I don't carry a gun because I hate the government.I carry a gun because I understand the limitations of government. I don't carry a gun because I'm angry.I carry a gun so that I don't have to spend the rest of my life hating myself for failing to be prepared. I don't carry a gun because I want to shoot someone.I carry a gun because I want to die at a ripe old age in my bed, and not on a sidewalk, somewhere, tomorrow afternoon. I don't carry a gun because I'm a cowboy.I carry a gun because when I die and go to heaven, I want to be a cowboy. I don't carry a gun to make me feel like a man.I carry a gun because men know how to take care of themselves and the ones they love. I don't carry a gun because I feel inadequate.I carry a gun because unarmed and facing three armed thugs, I am inadequate. I don't carry a gun because I love it.I carry a gun because I love life and the people who make it meaningful to me. Police protection is an oxymoron. Free citizens must protect themselves. Police do not protect you from crime, they usually just investigate the crime after it happens and then call someone in to clean up the mess. Personally, I carry a gun because I'm too young to die and too old to take an butt whoopin'.....author unknown. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pokey Posted October 25, 2011 Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 I carry a smile, and a warm right hand that gives a firm handshake.I am sure about what that warm right hand frequently does "he loves watching girls that smoke". And this coming from somebody that has their CHL but carries no gun, yet has mentioned of carrying? Just sayin......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadTrainDriver Posted October 25, 2011 Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 (edited) I don't have my CHL.I had the certificate, but its expired now.I just never had enough desire to go get it.As for what hand I use...that would be the left.Have to have the right to move the computer mouse Lastly, if I was to carry, it would be a Mossberg 590A1 LE Special Purpose with 9 rounds of 00 buck.I wouldn't fuck around with some pea shooter!
