AFAIAC, there is nothing wrong with being an armed neighborhood watch (small-n, small-w), I don’t care about the rules of the formal program. The “unarmed only” rule is politically correct nonsense in this day and age when armed thugs are common, and only serves to put the good guys at a legal and PR disadvantage.
I’d say George’s use of his firearm to protect his life is proof that it is a good idea to ‘not leave home without it’. The progressives just don’t liek the sheep ebing able to kill the drug crazed wolves the progressive degredation of our culture has spawned.
