Why Grandpa carries a gun

· The quintessential reason why Grandpa carries a gun.
· Please take time to read this and pay particular attention to "A Little Gun History" about half way down – staggering numbers!

Why Carry a Gun?
My old Grandpa said to me, 'Son, there comes a
time in every man's life when he stops bustin' knuckles and starts bustin' caps and usually it's when he becomes too old to take a whoopin'.'

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

I don't carry a gun because I'm evil; I carry a
gun because I have 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 that 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 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.

Police protection is an oxymoron: Free citizens
must protect themselves because police cannot protect you from crime; they investigate the crime after it happens and then call someone in to clean up the mess.

Personally, I carry a gun because I'm too young to
die and too old to take a whoopin'!

With guns, we are 'citizens'; without them, we are
'subjects'.

·
I'm a firm believer in the 2nd Amendment! If you are too, please forward this.
If you're not a believer, please reconsider the true facts. This is history; not what's being shown on TV, sanctioned by our illustrious delusional leaders in
Washington.
