Just read this on a lady friends BLOG and had to share.....[8D]
1. As John Steinbeck once said: Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to fight, he'll just kill you.
2. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics will get you killed.
3. I carry a gun because a cop is too heavy.
4. When seconds count, the cops are always just minutes away.
5. 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."
6. An armed man will kill an unarmed man with monotonous regularity.
7. The old sheriff was attending an awards dinner when a woman 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."
8. Beware the man who only has one gun. HE PROBABLY KNOWS HOW TO USE IT!!!
9. The primary purpose of a side arm is to protect you until you can get to a rifle or shotgun.
10. I was once asked by a lady visiting 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's loaded, it can't work without bullets! She then asked, "Are you that afraid of some one evil coming into your house?" My reply was, "No not at all. I'm not afraid of the house catching fire either, but I have fire extinguishers around, and they are all loaded too."

A few words of wisdom.
I would rather be your friend, but if you are not interested in that, Iam prepared to be a capable and efficient enemy. - Jeff Cooper
This is the law:
The purpose of fighting is to win. There is no possible victory in defense.
The sword is more important than the shield and skill is more importantthan either.
The final weapon is the brain. All else is supplemental." -- John
Steinbeck
1- Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he's 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, 'cause a cop is too heavy. (Gotta love this one!!)
4- America is not at war. The U.S. Military is at war. America is at
the mall. (Ain't this the gospel truth!)
5- When seconds count, the cops are just minutes away. (Yep, time it
some time, but shoot first - then call 911).
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 with, "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 shotgun."
9- Beware the man who only has one gun. He probably knows how to use
it!
(AMEN !)
