During a recent visit, a relative from a Left-wing enclave, who seems to have bought the party line, recoiled in horror when I revealed that I have guns for self-protection. (I do not hunt and do not allow it on my property; my wife and I are vegetarians. The relative, incidentally, is not.)
"I think such things should be left to the police," she gasped.
"Out here? In The Middle of Nowhere?" my wife replied. "I don't think so."
Did your relative get it?
