Found this hanging by the tool room the other day. Thought I'd share it with ya'll and give you the opportunity to share it with other people who understand a little common sense.

WHY I CARRY

I don't carry a gun to kill people.
I carry a gun to keep from being killed.


I don't carry a gun to scare people.
I carry a gun because sometimes this world can be a scary place.


I don't carry a gun because I'm paranoid.
I carry a gun because there are real threats in the world.


I don't carry a gun because I'm evil.
I carry a gun because I've lived long enough to see the evil in the world.


I don't carry a gun because I hate the government.
I carry a gun because I understand the limitations of government.


I don't carry a gun because I'm angry.
I carry a gun so I don't have to spend the rest of my life hating myself for failing to be prepared.


I don't carry a gun because I want to shoot someone.
I carry a gun because I want to die at a ripe old age in my bed, and not on a sidewalk somewhere tomorrow afternoon.


I don't carry a gun because I'm a cowboy.
I carry a gun because, when I die and go to heaven, I want to be a cowboy.


I don't carry a gun to make me feel like a man.
I carry a gun because men know how to take care of themselves and the ones they love.


I don't carry a gun because I feel inadequate.
I carry a gun because, unarmed and facing three armed thugs, I AM inadequate.


I don't carry a gun because I love it.
I carry a gun because I love life and the people who make it meaningful to me.

Fact is, "police protection" is an oxymoron. Free citizens must be able to protect themselves.

Police do not protect you from crime: they usually just investigate the crime after it happens and then call someone in to clean up the mess.


Remember: The average response time to a 911 call is over 4 minutes.

The average response time of a .357 magnum is 1400 Feet Per Second.


Do the math.
