Well said Doctor;

I have a few additional thoughts. Some may make you smile, and some may make you think. Keep in mind these are from a typical white guy, who clings to his gun while reading his bible. My personal thoughts on gun control can be summed up in one sentence. Gun Control means hitting what you aim at. Enjoy the following.

GUN FUNNIES

1. Don’t pick a fight with an old military man. If he is too old to fight, he’ll just kill you.

2. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck.

3. I carry a gun because a cop is too heavy.

4. A gun without bullets is a club, and an expensive one at that.

5. When seconds count, the cops are just minutes away.

6. A reporter did a human-interest piece on the Texas Rangers. The reporter recognized the Colt Model 1911 the Ranger was carrying and asked him “Why do you carry a .45?” The Ranger responded, “Because they don’t make a .46.”

7. An armed man will kill an unarmed man with monotonous regularity.

8. The old sheriff was attending an awards dinner when a lady commented on his wearing his sidearm. “Sheriff, I see you have your pistol. Are you expecting trouble?” “No Ma’am. If I were expecting trouble, I would have brought my rifle.”

9. Beware the man who only has one gun. HE PROBABLY KNOWS HOW TO USE IT!!!

10. I was once asked by a lady visiting my home if I had a gun in the house. I said I did. She said “Well I certainly hope it isn’t loaded!” To which I said, “Of course it is loaded. It doesn’t work without bullets!” She then asked, “Are you afraid of some evil person coming into your house?” My reply was, “No, not at all. I am not afraid of the house catching fire either, but I have fire extinguishers around, and they are also loaded.” To which I’ll add, having a gun in the house that isn’t loaded is like having a car in your garage without gas in the tank.

11. The Course Director on the rifle range at a local Scout camp was approached by a reporter and asked if he was not afraid that he was equipping the next generation of school shooters. “No Ma’am” he replied. “Teaching how to safely handle and use guns responsibly doesn’t turn boys into killers. After all, you have the equipment to become a prostitute, but that doesn’t mean you are one.”

12. Those who live by the sword risk being shot by those who don’t.
