I maintain that an armed society is a polite society and since I'm always armed, I'm always polite.

Too many have come so close. I NEVER do something like expressing rage on the road in any form. Had to tell a fellow in Houston to "Stay calm and stay alive." He understood, got back in his vehicle and left. Smart man.

"Stay calm and stay alive."

That's a good olan.

Last year, my ex brother in law (Dave)(who was always a hot head) decided to appoint himself the "Fire Lane Police." He pulled into a shopping center and some guy was parked in the fire lane. Dave started yelling at him to move and then got out of his truck to reeeeallllly make his point. The other guy got too and after some angry words were exchanged and Dave kept putting his finger in the other guy's face. The other guy shove Dave (6'4") and as he went back, he lost his footing and landed head first. That ended the incident. Dave got up and left.

The next day he went to the hospital with a severe headache and DIED from internal bleeding. The fall was the final straw in a lifetime of taking head shots.

At 57, he should have known better.
