We live in a rural area on a busy county road. We got a visit from the local minister of the Grace Church when we moved in. Nobody has bothered us since.
Holstered side arm...
Holstered?
@bigpawbullets Seriously? ha ha ha
@thinktwice
OK TT... you're in our militia.
@bigpawbullets Nope...bears and snakes only...oh..and religious door knockers... ha ha ...never fired except at the range...
@thinktwice
But! You've fired it... more than some folks do.
I salute your attitude.
@bigpawbullets I am a military brat...learned to shoot as a kid and in ROTC...surprise...Democrat who owns a gun!
@Elganned What? That I wear gartered stockings...sorry...I do...
@thinktwice
Old school elegance.
And your political affiliation is not important.
You're a "gunfighter" American....
@bigpawbullets yeah...like one drone or tank is going to be stopped by my one hand gun and shot gun...that is a bunch of reality tv bunk...cut off communications and you have no militia...plus, I have no reason to fight along side a bunch of old out- of- shape fat men that want to pretend to be soldiers...
@thinktwice
Ah... but your thinking the militia is like what you see on the news and in the movies....
@bigpawbullets No...I just posted that because it reminded me of that movie where all of these old ex-CIA agents got together to try to fight something and it turned out to be a big comedy...I think the real story is that if our government needs overthrowing for any reason, people like me are not going to be able to do much at all...and, you haven't seen my gun toting neighbors...ha ha ha ha
I think Sylvester Stallone was in the movie...it was pathetic
@thinktwice
Agree.. anyone thinking they can win a pitched battle against the U.S. military.... is crazy.
@bigpawbullets But is still makes me feel more secure than not, how about you?
@thinktwice
Secure? I always go armed. It's only prudent.
Militia? Ours has a different mission statement than.... " Fight the U.S. Armed Services"...
Mine is to protect my Muslim neighbors two doors down from any idiots... ...I would miss her curry stew....
@thinktwice I don't have a gun, nor the desire for one. Must point out that it is a myth that Democrats don't own guns.
@Serenityseeker I know...have no idea where that came from...I was also a member of the NRA before they started their get rich by selling more guns craziness...they used to host father-daughter shoots and such...just about everyone in my neighborhood is a Democrat...and we have bears...lol
@kenriley yep...
@kenriley problem with that belief is their idea that Dems vote to take away all guns. The old scare tactic that seems to work.
@Serenityseeker You are correct...when I see that argument, I just want to scream...no one is going to take away our rights to own a gun...I and every gun owner I know merely want it to be fair, safe, and sensible...believe me, I have seen a lot of people that should not have a gun...alcohol and guns do not mix nor do people in tenuous domestic situations...that argument does not fly considering how many people regardless of politics own guns safely and responsibly....
