Strawman argument.

“Holding a gun in your hand ..... others will have bigger or better guns etc etc.”

I guess, without any gun in your hand makes you the safest then. You want to be a sheep, be my guest. But you don’t restict my right to bear arms. Personal safety and self-defense is only secondary benefit.

“The gun says, “you can kill me, but until you do, I remain free”.”

No, the gun says, “you might succeed in killing me, but also you might die trying.”

Holding a gun in your hand is lot safer than having no gun in your hands when confronted by an intruder.

Two posts in 6 six months, both from your blog and you never answer any reponses?

Having a treadmill and a set of weights doesn’t make you buff, but if you have them there’s much better odds that you’ll train with them so that you are.

Looks like we have a libtard troll spewing anti-gun BS.

So let me get this right, I am safer to be unarmed and let the criminals have what they want?

I have past experience that says otherwise.

6 times I have been in bad situations and every time a gun has ended that bad situation. The gun was in my hands and the criminals/thugs decided to go elsewhere.

This blog or whatever it is, was written by an idiot.

2.5 million times each year average citizens use guns, in their hands, to stop criminals from turning them into victims.

If this article was correct there would have been a lot less citizen survivors and a lot more dead self defenders.

The gun does not say, “you cannot kill me”.

Correct. It does not say that. It says;

"I suggest you don't threaten me further or attempt to harm me. Your life hangs in the balance."

It's not the size of the weapon.

It's how you use it.

Really.

Holding a gun in your hands does not guarantee either your safety or your life. There is no surety that someone else won’t have bigger or better weapons and can still take what you consider valuable.

If this were true, the POTUS wouldn't be protected by armed Secret Service agents everywhere he goes. If this were true, his daughters would not attend a school that uses armed security guards for protection.

The fact is that NONE of us is safe if only a FEW of us have weapons. When ALL of us have weapons, those in the wrong will have to decide if today is their day to die.

It's not as difficult as the gun-grabbing bed-wetters want to make us believe.

No, it doesn't, but I can guarantee you that you're better off with one than without.

What an idiotic argument!
Practice firing for accuracy, practice drawing for speed, practice reloading for speed and confidence, practice defensive assault conditions for staying alive.
Practice ... practice .... practice.

The United States Citizens KNOW that they're going to have to fight TYRANTS in their own government.
You cannot protect life, without the ability to take life.

While you are WAITING for the police to respond, someone could be losing their life.
All people of a responsible age should be armed.

As EternalVigilance reminded us:

Click here to read the 12 page pamphlet.


Let us NEVER FORGET THAT !

Let's subjugate them to OUR end game, DUST!
"COMPROMISE" is a DIRTY word!
People who study the Bible know that COMPROMISE almost always leads to destruction.


It's time to mock the "Gun Control" Zombies!
"Gun Control" is a firm grip, steady breathing, accurate aim (developed by lots of practice), and a slow trigger pull.


The Swiss have got it CORRECT !
We need to learn from the Swiss and implement their "gun control measures" here in the United States right now, today!
These laws are the ones we should shove into the "2nd Amendment Haters" faces.

The Swiss have got it CORRECT !
Let's adopt THEIR LAWS !

Remember: Read Second Amendment: It’s Not About Hunting, IT'S ABOUT TYRANNY .

“bigger or better weapons “

Typical liberal mindset that says a bigger gun is a better gun. Obviously written by someone that knows nothing about guns.
