Self Defense

[shoreleaveoic]

Better to have it and not need it...then not have it and need it.

It always amazes me that despite where you go in the world minority groups have a firm distaste of arms, yet the majority of people always have a monopoly on arms.

In America most guns are owned by white males. Meanwhile groups that probably need arms (from a historical standpoint such as racism, prejudice, institutionalized segregation) always are vehemently against ANYONE owning arms.

Blow the mind away....does anyone read history books?

Look into the history of gun control in America, Germany, Japan, etc....that alone should be proof that everyone should own weapons.

If you want information, an organization called "Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership" has made a video you can buy or find online that documents the real purpose of gun control.

And before someone says "In japan they don't have guns and low crime so it would work in america too, hur dur!" Your forgetting an important cultural factor, East Asiatic peoples have a different culture than Western Peoples. Try this experiment out one day, walk into a bar in the USA, Mexico, or Jamaica. Slap a man sitting at the bar as hard as you can. Then try the same thing in a bar in Japan, China or Korea. In one country the people may yell, say something, and curse....in another country you will be killed! Its not the weapons, its the culture.

Hell, look at video games. Japan makes Super Mario and Street Fighter II. Both cartoonish games...we make Mortal Kombat and Call of Duty. You can't just ignore culture factors and assume guns make people violent.

Bottom line, don't depend on police, boyfriends, neighbors or the good nature of others for your own personal defense. Get a Glock, get a reloading press, practice and carry it daily...or continue rolling the dice and hope things work out in your favor. People ask me why I carry a gun, then I ask them why they wear a seatbelt, or have a fire extinguisher, or insurance...etc....

Glocks are crap, I'll keep my Smith & Wesson.

To each their own. I have a G17 and it works and feels just fine.

Can't depend on cops, prosecutors, and judges. The best justice is in my holster.

I continue to believe that the best defense is a good offense.

I actually meant taking steps to change the world such that criminality, for example, is reduced drastically. But your YouTube posting works, too.

What about these steps: 1. Shoot first 2. Ask questions later

Yeah, that's really worked out well over the course of history.

Mother of god. I think I'll end up in one of those sheds if ever I step foot in Arizona.
