If you are not willing to defend yourself, then you definitely should not carry a gun. Your pacifist attitude will probably get you killed in today’s violent world.
Except it hasn’t gotten me killed, has it? And I’m not a pacifist either. I’m actually an ornery son of a bitch that you would not want to f*** with, trust me on that.
And it’s not that I’m not willing to defend myself, I just don’t want to shoot anyone with my gun.
Why would I want to do that?
Why would I need that in my life?
One way to avoid shooting someone is to not carry my gun.
So far, I haven’t shot anyone. Yay me!
