PEOPLE ASK WHY?
Why Carry a Gun?

My old 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 a
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 just '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. (Average 911 response time is 4.5 minutes. What
will you do for that period of time? If someone is trying to break into your house, do you realize how long 4 1/2 minutes are? Use your egg
timer and find out. Set some obnoxious hard rap song at your front door, and time it, no cheating please

Personally, I carry a gun becauseI'm
too young to die and too old to take an "ass" whoopin’ . . . . . . . . . . .
